Abstract

An electrode including conduction channels includes at least one electrode layer layered onto a current collector, the electrode layer including a plurality of active material particles and a plurality of high aspect ratio components. The high aspect ratio components are configured to provide ion conduction channels through the electrode layer. In some examples, the electrode may include two or more electrode layers, at least one of which includes high aspect ratio components. In some examples, the high aspect ratio components may be oriented transverse to the current collector to provide ion transport through a first electrode layer to a second electrode layer.
