Long-Life Lithium-Metal All-Solid-State Batteries and Stable Li Plating Enabled by In Situ Formation of Li3PS4 in the SEI Layer

Jieru Xu et al.

Summary: This study constructs an ultrastable and kinetically favorable interface between sulfide-poly(ethylene oxide) composite solid electrolytes (CSEs) and lithium metal through in situ formation of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer containing Li3PS4. A specially designed sulfide, lithium polysulfidophosphate (LPS), can distribute uniformly in the PEO matrix, creating a homogeneous SEI layer. The CSE/Li interface with high Li+ transportation capability is quickly stabilized through the reaction between LPS and lithium metal to inhibit lithium dendrite growth.

Spontaneous Lithiation of Binary Oxides during Epitaxial Growth on LiCoO2

Le Wang et al.

Summary: Epitaxial growth is a powerful method for synthesizing heterostructures and integrating multiple functionalities. However, interfacial mixing can significantly affect the properties of layered structures, particularly for energy storage materials with smaller cations. In this study, we demonstrate a lithiation-assisted epitaxy approach to synthesize Li2WO4 and Li4Ti5O12 with orientation control by depositing a binary transition metal oxide on an epitaxial LiCoO2 cathode layer. This method proves to be useful for discovering new energy materials and for mechanistic studies of energy storage and conversion processes.

Hedging Li dendrite formation by virtue of controllable tip effect

Wei Li et al.

Summary: The study found that the tip effect can exacerbate Li dendrite formation and reduce the cycle life and safety of lithium metal batteries, but by controlling the distribution of nano-tips, surface electric field can be regulated for uniform lithium deposition. The use of Ag nanoparticles and graphene aerogel in anode can mitigate inhomogeneous current distribution, improve lithium deposition, and demonstrate excellent electrochemical performance in full cell testing.
