20090117289 | Method and apparatus for deposition of thin film materials for energy storage devices - The present invention is a method and apparatus for applying coatings in a rarefied gaseous medium. A cold cathode electron gun is used to generate an electron beam, which is directed to a crucible containing initial solid materials in a vacuum chamber, thus generating an initial solid material vapor. Nitrogen reaction gas is bled into the vacuum chamber, and ionization of the nitrogen gas in high frequency discharge. Subsequent interaction of initial material vapor with nitrogen ions and atoms results in generation of solid product heating of the substrate. Condensation of the vapor on the surface of substrate generates a thin film of solid electrode or electrolyte. The resulting rate of deposition of thin film of vitreous solid electrolyte and LiPon solid electrolyte is substantially higher than can be achieved with a magnetron sputtering process. | 05-07-2009 |

20100092870 | Solid polymer electrolyte for solar cells and lithium batteries - The invention described the highly conducting amorphous polymer materials which are based on the pure block-type copolymers, which contain polyethylene oxide and other chemically complementary blocks and form the amorphous hydrogen-bonded intramolecular polycomplexes, and those, filled by ion conductive materials, low-molecular-weight organic plasticizer and nanometer-scale inorganic particles. The block-type copolymers are preferably the linear triblock copolymers with a central block of PEO and two side blocks of chemically complementary polyacrylamide (PAAm) or poly(acrylic acid) (PAAc). Due to existence of long side PAAm chains and their interaction with a central crystallizable block of PEO, TBC bulk structure is amorphous and fully homogeneous. It can be represented as a totality of hydrogen-bonded segments of both polymer components, uniformly distributed in PAAm matrix. Presented polymer materials can be used for solid polymer electrolyte for DSSC solar cells and lithium batteries. | 04-15-2010 |
20100129564 | Method for deposition of electrochemically active thin films and layered coatings - The present invention involves a method for deposition of thin film and electrochemically active layered coatings for use as components including electrodes and solid electrolytes for electrochemical generation and storage devices including batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cell, solar cell and the like. According to the present invention, evaporation of the starting materials in a reactive gaseous medium is accomplished by means of a gas discharge electron gun with a cold cathode. The electron beam has a given specific power corresponding to the evaporation temperature of the starting material. Deposition of the evaporated starting material onto the substrate in a pressure controlled reactive gaseous medium is carried out at a controlled temperature and rate of condensate formation. This temperature is dependant on the partial pressure of the reactive gas. High condensation rates can be achieved, and the resulting condensed coating materials can have high density, making them ideal for use as electrodes in electrochemical generation and storage devices. | 05-27-2010 |
