One of the most important requirements in next-generation batteries is to concurrently deliver high energy density and high power density (fast charge-discharge rates). The high power density requirement can be met with enhanced ion and electron transport kinetics in batteries, which in turn requires active materials with high ion diffusion constants and conductive additives or architectures for faster electron transport to respective current collectors. It is well known that nanostructuring the electrode materials would significantly enhance the characteristic time constant for ion diffusion, thereby reducing the intercalation/deintercalation time.
