Surface engineering toward stable lithium metal anodes

The lithium (Li) metal anode (LMA) is susceptible to failure due to the growth of Li dendrites caused by an unsatisfied solid electrolyte interface (SEI). With this regard, the design of artificial…

Unraveling Li growth kinetics in solid electrolytes due to electron beam charging

Revealing the local structure of solid electrolytes (SEs) with electron microscopy is critical for the fundamental understanding of the performance of solid-state batteries (SSBs). However, the…

LiH formation and its impact on Li batteries revealed by cryogenic electron microscopy

Little is known about how evolved hydrogen affects the cycling of Li batteries. Hypotheses include the formation of LiH in the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) and dendritic growth of LiH. Here, we…

Surface engineering of inorganic solid-state electrolytes via interlayers strategy for developing long-cycling quasi-all-solid-state lithium batteries

Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) with inorganic solid-state electrolytes suffer from lithium dendrites propagation. Here, the authors demonstrate the production of stable lab-scale LMBs using an…

Liquid metal-based soft, hermetic, and wireless-communicable seals for stretchable systems

Soft materials tend to be highly permeable to gases, making it difficult to create stretchable hermetic seals. With the integration of spacers, we demonstrate the use of liquid metals, which show…

Revisiting Lithium‐ and Sodium‐Ion Storage in Hard Carbon Anodes

The galvanostatic lithiation/sodiation voltage profiles of hard carbon anodes are simple, with a sloping drop followed by a plateau. However, a precise understanding of the corresponding redox sites…
