This work investigated the resistance of Al-contained Li6.75La3Zr1.75Ta0.25O12 (LLZTO) sintered pellets to lithium dendrites. The short-circuiting period for Li/LLZTO/Li cells under a high applied direct current showed positive correlation to the variation in the relative densities of the LLZTO pellets sintered at different temperatures. Lithium dendrites were observed directly inside short-circuited LLZTO electrolytes. Our observations demonstrate that lithium dendrites can grow through grain boundaries and interconnected pores in the ceramic electrolytes. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
