Abstract
An ambient temperature, high density, rechargeable lithium battery includes a Li.sub.x Mg.sub.2 Si anode which intercalates lithium to form a single crystalline phase when x is up to 1.0 and an amorphous phase when x is from 1 to 2.0. The electrode has good reversibility and mechanical strength after cycling.
