The anode and cathode is in the same place as the lithium put away, while the electrolyte conveys emphatically charged lithium particles from the anode to the cathode as well as the other way around through the separator. The development of the lithium particles makes free electrons in the anode, which makes a charge at the positive current gatherer.
 
The key things that improve a Li-particle battery than different sorts, and more appropriate for things like electric vehicles and cell phones are its light weight, high energy thickness, and capacity to re-energize.
