Conclusion and Outlook<br />

This finding indicates that the SiCN phase is an active phase in terms of lithium<br />

intercalation/deintercalation and that it is a promising candidate as protective layer on<br />

graphite, due to its chemical stability. Still unfavourable is the low coulombic efficiency due<br />

to the large specific surface area of the formed SiCN phase. Therefore future work will be<br />

focused on reducing the surface area to improve the electrochemical properties.<br />

Furthermore the influence of the amorphous SiCN layer on the capacity and chemical<br />

stability of other electrode materials like silicon and optimized carbon materials as well as<br />

on different electrolytes is of particular interest.<br />
