This technology relates to a method for manufacturing a battery electrode with a chalcogen coating layer formed on its surface, and to an electrode formed using the same. In particular, it concerns a chalcogen coating layer formed on the surface of a core metal electrode. This technology is designed to control the electrochemical environment and enhance the performance, structural stability, and application efficiency of battery materials and electrode designs based on dendrite formation.
Conventionally, the introduction of a chalcogen coating layer to control the electrochemical environment in aqueous zinc batteries resulted in dendrite formation issues, which could lead to performance degradation, process complexity, lack of stability, or limitations on the scope of application. Accordingly, this technology proposes a technical concept for manufacturing a battery metal electrode by applying a configuration including a chalcogen coating layer formed on the surface of a core metal electrode, which can be used in various batteries, as a core means. This concept implements a step of preparing a solution containing a chalcogen material.
As a result, a dendrite formation effect through the chalcogen coating layer can be expected. This chalcogen coating layer formed on the surface of the core metal electrode controls the electrochemical environment and, through dendrite formation, can simultaneously enhance stability, reproducibility, and scalability in actual usage environments. Furthermore, it has the potential to be utilized as a high-performance material, device, apparatus, or process technology in related industries; it is advantageous in terms of subsequent commercialization and process expansion, and is also suitable for demonstration deployment.
