This false‐colored SEM image shows a model high‐energy‐ density lithium‐ion battery anode that consists of an array of 3D hierarchically patterned single‐crystalline silicon microstructures. Ralph G. Nuzzo and co‐workers utilize these model anodes to demonstrate the crystallographic anisotropy of strain evolution on electrochemical intercalation of lithium atoms and self‐strain‐limited charging of a lithium‐ion battery anode.
