Matchmaker of Marriage between a Li Metal Anode and NASICON-Structured Solid-State Electrolyte: Plastic Crystal Electrolyte and Three-Dimensional Host Structure
Despite excellent ionic conductivity and electrochemical oxidative stability, the emerging halide-based solid electrolytes suffer from inherent instability toward Li metal anode. A thick and resistive interface can be formed by...
A three-dimensional (3D) metal-organic framework containing Li-oxygen clusters, namely {[Li2(IPA)]·DMF}n (1) (H2IPA = isophthalic acid), has been constructed under solvothermal conditions. The Li-based MOF can be applied to lithium energy...
For the higher safety and energy density, solid-state electrolyte with better mechanical strength, thermal and electrochemical stability is a perfect choice. To improve the performance of PEO, usage of low-cost...
An ultrathin and conformal ion conductive coating is realized on 3D current collectors for preventing the irreversible reaction between the electrolyte and Li metal, which has been confirmed by in situ optical observation. At the high areal capacity of 10 mA h cm−2 for the Li metal anode, a stable CE of 98.9% for 800 h can be achieved.
Recent years have witnessed a thriving pursuit of high-energy Li metal batteries for replacing existing Li-ion batteries. However, the cell chemistry involving extremely reactive Li metal anode in flammable organic...
