Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201304714-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>The molecular‐layer deposition</bold> of a flexible coating onto Si electrodes produces high‐capacity Si nanocomposite anodes. Using a reaction cascade based on inorganic trimethylaluminum and organic glycerol precursors, conventional nano‐Si electrodes undergo surface modifications, resulting in anodes that can be cycled over 100 times with capacities of nearly 900 mA h g⁻¹ and Coulombic efficiencies in excess of 99%. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg4sx4pmzg" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
