Abstract
Electrodes and methods of forming electrodes are described herein. The electrode can be an electrode of an electrochemical cell or battery. The electrode includes a current collector and a film in electrical communication with the current collector. The film may include a carbon phase that holds the film together. The electrode further includes an electrode attachment substance that adheres the film to the current collector.
Claims32
An electrode comprising:
- a current collector;
- a monolithic self-supporting film in electrical communication with the current collector, the film comprising pyrolyzed carbon that holds the film together;
- and
- an electrode attachment substance that adheres the film to the current collector, wherein the film comprises porosity and at least about 60 percent of the porosity is substantially free of the electrode attachment substance.
