All-solid-state Li-batteries using solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) offer enhanced safety over conventional Li-ion batteries with organic liquid due to the nonflammable nature of SSEs. The superior mechanical strength SSEs can also protect against Li dendrite penetration, which enables use highest specific capacity (3861 mAh/g) and lowest redox potential (-3.04 V vs standard hydrogen electrode) anode: metal. However, contact between metal presents a major challenge, where large polarization...

Substantial efforts are underway to develop all‐solid‐state Li batteries (SSLiBs) toward high safety, power density, and energy density. Garnet‐structured solid‐state electrolyte exhibits great promise for SSLiBs owing its Li‐ion conductivity, wide potential window, sufficient thermal/chemical stability. A major challenge of garnet is that the contact between Li‐metal anodes poor due rigidity garnet, which leads limited active sites large interfacial resistance. This study proposes a new...
