The mechanism of the thin-film batteries is that ions migrate from the cathode to the anode charging and storing absorbed energy and migrating back to the cathode from the anode during discharge and thereby releasing energy .
In particular, the market for thin film batteries is being driven by demand for technologies based on the internet of things (IoT), wearables, and portable electronics. The layers that comprise the anode, cathode, and electrolyte in thin film batteries are true to their name, with thicknesses on the order of microns (0.001 mm).
The layers that comprise the anode, cathode, and electrolyte in thin film batteries are true to their name, with thicknesses on the order of microns (0.001 mm). They are often deposited using physical vapor deposition, typically by thermal evaporation and sputtering.
This type of batteries is commonly referred to as “structural batteries”. Two general methods have been explored to develop structural batteries: (1) integrating batteries with light and strong external reinforcements, and (2) introducing multifunctional materials as battery components to make energy storage devices themselves structurally robust.
Since the problem of electrolyte leakage is thus avoided, flexible systems can be built . Finally, unlike traditional liquid lithium-ion batteries, solid systems can be packed together densely to maximize energy density. Thin-film batteries production have the advantage of high energy densities .
Since the electrolyte in thin-film batteries is solid rather than liquid, they may be shaped in a wide variety of configurations without the risk of leakage, and it has been found that certain types of thin-film batteries can withstand charging and discharging for up to 50,000 times.
