Zusammenfassung:
Lithium-graphite intercalation compounds (Li-GICs) are by far the most common anode material for modern Li-ion batteries. However, the dielectric response of this material in the electrostatic limit and its variation depending on the state of charge (SOC) has not been investigated to a satisfactory degree - neither by means of theory nor by experiment - and especially not for the higher range of SOC. In this work, we - for the first time - predict a mostly linear dependency of the relative permittivity εr on the SOC, from ≈ 7 at SOC 0% to ≈ 25 at SOC 100%. This is achieved by making use of our recently published DFTB parametrization for Li-GICs based on a machine-learned repulsive potential in order to overcome the computational hurdles of sampling the long-ranged Coulomb interactions within this material. In doing so, we provide novel insight into a property which is highly desired, particularly as an input parameter for charged kinetic Monte Carlo simulations.
