Lithium (Li) metal is the ultimate anode for rechargeable batteries. Its high specific capacity (3860 mAh g*1) and low voltage (*3.04 V vs standard hydrogen electrode) warrant optimal cell energy density. However, these anodes rely on repeated plating and stripping of Li, which leads to consumption of Li inventory and the growth of dendrites that can lead to self-discharge and safety issues. To address these issues and problems related to the volume change of these anodes, a number of different porous conductive scaffolds have been reported to create high surface area electrodes on which Li can be plated reliably. While impressive results have been reported in literature, current processes typically rely on either expensive or poorly scalable techniques. Herein, we report a scalable fabrication method to create porous Cu anodes using a one-step electrodeposition process. The areal loading, pore structure, and electrode thickness can be tuned by changing the electrodeposition parameters, and we show the in-situ WAXS images with lithium growth which can help explain the mechanism of dendrites. We also provide a feasible method to fabricate the porous Cu cathodes with different electrodeposition solution concentrations.
