Abstract
A method for making a lithium-ion cell includes depositing an electrode material as a coating on a substrate of the lithium-ion cell, irradiating the deposited electrode material with microwave radiation of varying frequency, wetting the irradiated electrode material with a non-aqueous electrolyte solution, and sealing the wetted electrode material in an air-tight enclosure.
