Lithium-Ion Battery Basics

A battery is made up of an anode, cathode, separator, electrolyte, and two current collectors. The anode and cathode store lithium ions. During discharge, lithium ions move from the anode through the electrolyte and separator to the cathode. During charge, the process is reversed. This movement of lithium ions between the anode and cathode through an external circuit creates an electrical current that can power devices. The separator prevents electrons from short circuiting inside the battery.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

A battery is made up of an anode, cathode, separator,


electrolyte, and two current collectors (positive and
negative). The anode and cathode store the lithium. The
CHEMISTRY
BSPC0014 electrolyte carries positively charged lithium ions from
the anode to the cathode and vice versa through the
separator. The movement of the lithium ions creates free

lithium electrons in the anode which creates a charge at the


positive current collector. The electrical current then
battery flows from the current collector through a device being
powered (cell phone, computer, etc.) to the negative
current collector. The separator blocks the flow of
GROUP 2 electrons inside the battery.
