Abstract:
Effects of temperature on Li nucleation/deposition behaviours and electrochemical performances are thoroughly investigated. Higher temperature leads to lower nucleation density with larger deposit sizes due to the reduced surface migration barrier and accelerated ion diffusion, plus better lifespans and coulombic efficiency owing to the relatively conducive morphology characteristics and a favorable SEI layer.

Temperature Dependence on Reaction Rate
Atoms, molecules, or ions must collide before they can react with each other. Atoms must be close together to form chemical bonds. This premise is the basis for a theory that explains many observations regarding chemical kinetics, including factors affecting reaction rates.
The collision theory is based on the postulates that (i) the reaction rate is proportional to the rate of reactant collisions, (ii) the reacting species collide in an orientation allowing contact between...
