N2 - This paper reports multiphysics simulations (COMSOL) of relatively low conductive cathode oxide materials in nanoarchitectures that operate within the appropriate potential range (cut-off voltage 2.5 V) at 3 times the C-rate of micron scale thin film materials while still accessing 90% of material. This paper also reports a novel anode fabrication of Ge sputtered on a Cu nanotube current collector for lithium-ion batteries. Ge on Cu nanotubes is shown to alleviate the effect of volume expansion, enhancing mechanical stability at the nanoscale and improved the electronic characteristics for increased rate capabilities.
