Controlling the Lithium-Metal Growth to Enable Low-Lithium-Metal-Excess All-Solid-State Lithium-Metal Batteries

Solid-state lithium-metal batteries are considered to be promising candidates for next-generation high-energy density storage devices to power electrical vehicles. Critical challenges for solid-state lithium-metal batteries include the large morphological changes associated with the plating and stripping of lithium metal and decomposition of...

Tandem Interface and Bulk Li-Ion Transport in a Hybrid Solid Electrolyte with Microsized Active Filler

In common hybrid solid electrolytes (HSEs), either the ionic conductivity of the polymer electrolyte is enhanced by the presence of a nanosized inorganic filler, which effectively decrease the glass-transition temperature, or the polymer solid electrolyte acts mostly as a flexible host for the inorganic solid electrolyte, the latter providing...
