MOF-derived CuO nanorod arrays with lithiophilic groups were fabricated on a Cu foil current collector (CuO NAs/CF) to produce stable lithium metal batteries with uniform, dendrite-free Li deposition.
Solid-state lithium metal batteries (LMBs) assembled with polymer electrolytes (PEs) and lithium metal anodes are promising batteries owing to their enhanced safeties and ultrahigh theoretical energy densities. Nevertheless, polymer electrolytes...
Protective Polymer Coatings (PPCs) protect lithium metal anodes in rechargeable batteries to stabilize the Li/electrolyte interface and to extend the cycle life by reducing parasitic reactions and improving the lithium deposition morphology.
