Abstract
A battery cell includes a first current collector, a cathode in electrical contact with the first current collector, and a second current collector. The second current collector includes a metal foam having a porous structure, and an electrically insulating layer on outer surfaces of the porous structure facing the cathode. The electrically insulating layer isolates the outer surfaces facing the cathode from ions provided by the cathode. The electrically insulating layer is configured to allow an electrolyte to transport ions from the cathode to an inner portion of the porous structure of the metal foam. The battery cell may further include a separator to separate the cathode and the first current collector from the second current collector. When the battery cell is in at least a partially charged state, ions form an anode including a metal plating within the inner porous structure of the metal foam.
