An electrode structure and its method of manufacture are disclosed. The disclosed electrode structures may be manufactured by depositing a first release layer on a first carrier substrate. A first protective layer may be deposited on a surface of the first release layer and a first electroactive material layer may then be deposited on the first protective layer.

Protected electrode structures

The use of ion-conducting materials to protect electrodes is generally described. The ion-conducting material may be in the form of a layer that is adjacent to a polymeric layer, such as a porous separator, to form a composite. At least a portion of the pores of the polymer layer may be filled or unfilled with the ion-conducting material. In some embodiments, the ion-conducting layer is sufficiently bonded to the polymer layer to prevent delamination of the layers during cycling of an electrochemical cell.

Electrode protection using electrolyte-inhibiting ion conductor

Composite structures including an ion-conducting material and a polymeric material (e.g., a separator) to protect electrodes are generally described. The ion-conducting material may be in the form of a layer that is bonded to a polymeric separator. The ion-conducting material may comprise a lithium oxysulfide having a lithium-ion conductivity of at least at least 10S/cm.

Electrode protection using a composite comprising an electrolyte-inhibiting ion conductor

Electrode structures and electrochemical cells are provided. The electrode structures and/or electrochemical cells described herein may include one or more protective layers comprising a polymer layer and/or a gel polymer electrolyte layer. The polymer layer may be formed from the copolymerization of an olefinic monomer comprising at least one electron withdrawing group and an olefinic comonomer comprising at least one electron donating group. Methods for forming polymer layers are also provided.

Polymers for use as protective layers and other components in electrochemical cells

Electrochemical cells having desirable electronic and ionic conductivities, and associated systems and methods, are generally described.
