Abstract: A method includes determining a state of charge (SOC) of the battery and charging the battery using a plurality of charging steps. If the SOC of the battery is less than a predetermined SOC, the battery is charged at a first charge rate (C-rate) in a range from 3 C to 4 C in a first step until the SOC of the battery increases by a first ΔSOC. After the first ΔSOC, the battery is charged in the constant current mode at a second C-rate of 3−(1/n) C in a second step to (2+n−1)th step until the SOC of the battery increases by a second ΔSOC, where n is an integer greater than zero. After the second ΔSOC, the battery is charged in the constant current mode at a third C- rate of 2+ (1/n) C in a (2+n)th step until the SOC of the battery increases by a third ΔSOC.

Each of the N battery cells comprises M cores each comprising a first current collector, cathode active material, a separator, anode active material, and a second current collector, where M is an integer greater than one. The M cores are connected in parallel by connecting the first current collectors of the M cores in each of the N battery cells together and by connecting the second current collectors of the M cores in each of the N battery cells together. N-1 clad plates are arranged between adjacent ones of the N battery cells and the N battery cells are connected in series by the N-1 clad plates.

Abstract: An anode-free solid-state battery includes a cathode layer having transient anode elements and a bare current collector devoid of non-transitory anode material and configured to accept thereon the transient anode elements. The battery also includes a solid-state electrolyte layer defining voids and arranged between the current collector and the cathode layer. The battery additionally includes a gel situated within the solid-state electrolyte and cathode layers, to permeate the electrolyte voids and form a gelled solid-state electrolyte layer, coat the cathode layer, and facilitate ionic conduction of the anode elements between the cathode layer, the solid-state electrolyte layer, and the current collector. Charging the battery diffuses the anode elements from the cathode layer, via the gelled solid-state electrolyte layer, onto the current collector. Discharging the battery returns the anode elements, via the gelled solid-state electrolyte layer, to the cathode layer. A particular method is used to fabricate the anode-free solid-state battery.

Abstract: Lithium-based and sodium-based batteries and capacitors using metal foil current collectors, coated with porous layers of particles of active electrode materials for producing an electric current, may adapted to produce heat for enhancing output when the cells are required to periodically operate during low ambient temperatures. A self-heating cell may be placed in heat transfer contact with a working cell that is temporarily in a cold environment. Or one or both of the anode current collector and cathode current collectors of a heating cell may be formed with shaped extended portions, uncoated with electrode materials, through which cell current may be passed for resistance heating of the extended current collector areas. These extended current collector areas may be used to heat the working area of the cell in which they are incorporated, or to contact and heat an adjacent working cell.
