Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) are receiving great interest because their high mechanical strength and transference number could potentially suppress Li dendrites electrochemical stability allows the use of high-voltage cathodes, which enhances energy density safety batteries. However, much lower critical current easier dendrite propagation in SSEs than nonaqueous liquid hindered possible applications. Herein, we successfully suppressed growth by situ forming an LiF-rich solid electrolyte...

Abstract In carbonate electrolytes, the organic–inorganic solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formed on Li‐metal anode surface is strongly bonded to Li and experiences same volume change as Li, thus it undergoes continuous cracking/reformation during plating/stripping cycles. Here, an inorganic‐rich SEI designed a reduce its bonding energy with metal by dissolving 4 m concentrated LiNO 3 in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) additive for fluoroethylene‐carbonate (FEC)‐based electrolyte. Due aggregate...

Abstract All‐solid‐state Li metal batteries have attracted extensive attention due to their high safety and energy density. However, dendrite growth in solid‐state electrolytes (SSEs) still hinders application. Current efforts mainly aim reduce the interfacial resistance, neglecting intrinsic dendrite‐suppression capability of SSEs. Herein, mechanism for formation dendrites is investigated, Li‐dendrite‐free SSE criteria are reported. To achieve a capability, SSEs should be thermodynamically...

Electrochemical capacitors (ECs) have been widely applied in electronics, electric vehicles, aircrafts, energy storage devices, uninterrupted or emergency power supplies, and so on. An ideal EC should high and/or powder density, good rate capability, long cycling life. Recently, graphene, graphene derivatives, their composites explored as the electrode materials of ECs to satisfy these requirements. In this Perspective, we review recent development synthesizing for discuss strategies...

Engineering a stable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is critical for suppression of lithium dendrites. However, the formation desired SEI by formulating composition very difficult due to complex electrochemical reduction reactions. Here, instead trial-and-error composition, we design Li-11 wt % Sr alloy anode form SrF2-rich in fluorinated electrolytes. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation and experimental characterization demonstrate that has large interfacial energy with Li metal...
