6 March 2014Fs-laser microstructuring of laser-printed LiMn2O4 electrodes for manufacturing of 3D microbatteries
Lithium manganese oxide composite cathodes are realized by laser-printing. The printed cathode is a composite and
consists of active powder, binder and conductive agents. Laser-printed cathodes are first calendered and then laser
structured using femtosecond-laser radiation in order to form three-dimensional (3D) micro-grids in the cathode material.
Three-dimensional micro-grids in calendered/laser structured cathodes exhibit improved discharge capacity retention at a
1 C discharging rate. Calendered but unstructured cathodes indicate the poorest cycling behavior at 1 C discharge. The
improved capacity retention and the reduced degradation of calendered/structured cathodes can be attributed to both the
increased electrical contact through calendering as well as shortened Li-ion pathways due to laser-induced 3D microgrids.
