Abstract
A battery for an implantable medical device (IMD) configured to support a relatively high rate of energy discharge relative to its capacity to support energy intensive therapy delivery, such as high energy anti-tachyarrhythmia shocks, by the IMD. The battery includes a first electrode, a second electrode separated a distance from the first electrode, an electrolyte disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. The electrolyte includes a lithium salt including LiAsF6, an organic solvent, and an electrolyte additive that includes vinylene carbonate.
