Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) solid garnet-type electrolyte has been widely reported due to its outstanding safety and electrochemical stability. However, the inherent rigidity and brittleness of LLZTO lead to poor contact with anode/cathode and the operation failure of full cells. Herein, the dual-interlayers are constructed as the fast interfacial ion-migration channel by using Ti 3 C 2 T x (MXene, T x is –O, –OH, –F) with trace ionic liquid (IL), which promote the intimate contact between LLZTO and anode/cathode and suppress Li-dendrites growth. Notably, IL can wet the cathode to promote intimate interface contact and be decomposed into some inorganic compounds (such as Li 3 N, LiF, and Li 2 S x ), resulting in reduced interfacial resistance and fast Li-ion transportation. Consequently, in the prepared Li-symmetric cell, the interfacial resistance on the anode side plunges to 33.1 Ω cm −2 , and stably maintains over 1000 h without short circuit at 0.05 mA cm −2 . The full cell of Li|LiFePO 4 delivers a high initial capacity of 158.52 mA h g −1 and outstanding retention of 90.18% after 100 cycles at 60 °C and 0.2 C. Our work provides an efficient strategy to design dual-interlayers between LLZTO and anode/cathode for the interfacial modification to enhance the performance of solid garnet batteries.

One of the major obstacles to the application of potassium-ion batteries in large-scale energy storage is the lack of safe and effective electrolytes. KNH 2 , a new potassium-ion solid electrolyte has been developed in this study. Its ionic conductivity reaches 4.84 × 10 −5 S cm −1 at 150 °C and can reach 3.56 × 10 −4 S cm −1 after mechanochemical treatment. The result from electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurement shows that the increment of ionic conductivity is dependent on the concentration of nitrogen defects in the KNH 2 electrolyte. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report that adopts inorganic amide as an electrolyte for potassium-ion battery and initiates the search for a new amide-based solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state potassium-ion battery.

Solid-state fluoride-ion batteries (FIBs) circumvent multiple formidable bottlenecks of lithium-ion batteries, but their overall performance remains inferior due to the absence of appropriate solid electrolytes. Presently the conductivity of most solid electrolytes for FIBs is too low to enable room-temperature cycling, while the few sufficiently conductive ones only allow for very low discharge voltages because of the narrow electrochemical stability window (ESW). Here, high room-temperature conductivity and a decent ESW are simultaneously achieved by designing a solid electrolyte CsPb 0.9 K 0.1 F 2.9 . Its room-temperature conductivity is 1.23 × 10 −3 S cm −1 , comparable to the most conductive system reported so far (PbSnF 4 , 5.44 × 10 −4 –1.6 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ), but the ESW is several times broader. With these appealing characteristics simultaneously achieved in the solid electrolyte, a cell with much higher voltages than other room-temperature-operable solid-state FIBs in literature is successfully constructed, and stably cycled at 25 °C for 4581 h without considerable capacity fade.

Solid-state batteries with high energy density and safety are promising next-generation battery systems. However, lithium oxide and lithium sulfide electrolytes suffer low ionic conductivity and poor electrochemical stability, respectively. Lithium halide solid electrolyte shows high conductivity and good compatibility with the pristine high-voltage cathode but limited applications due to the high price of rare metal. Zr-based lithium halides with low cost and high stability possess great potential. Herein, a small amount of In 3+ is introduced in Li 2 ZrCl 6 to synthesize Li 2.25 Zr 0.75 In 0.25 Cl 6 electrolytes with a high room temperature Li-ion conductivity of 1.08 mS/cm. Solid-state batteries using Li 2.25 Zr 0.75 In 0.25 Cl 6 /Li 5.5 PS 4.5 Cl 1.5 bilayer solid electrolytes combined with Li-In anode and pristine LiNi 0.7 Mn 0.2 Co 0.1 O 2 cathode deliver high initial discharge capacities under different cut-off voltages. This work provides an effective strategy for enhancing the conductivity of Li 2 ZrCl 6 electrolytes, promoting their applications in solid-state batteries.

All-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (ASSLIBs) owing to their advantage of enhanced safety are considered to be a promising candidate for next-generation energy storage devices. However, the poor cycling performance and low areal capacities of ASSLIBs with S, Li2S or traditional oxide cathodes hinder the development of high-energy-density ASSLIBs. Herein, a Li6PS5Cl solid-state electrolyte has been systematically investigated for use as a cathode active material in ASSLIBs for the first time. ASSLIBs employing Li6PS5Cl as both the active material and electrolyte with a Li–In alloy anode are fabricated. A Li6PS5Cl-based cell with an active material loading of 3.1 mg cm−2 exhibits a high discharge capacity of around 535 mA h g−1 after 650 cycles at 56 mA g−1 (∼0.1C) at room temperature, which is the highest value among ASSLIBs using sulfide SSEs as active materials and is even comparable with those of cells with S, Li2S or transition metal sulfides as the active material. This superior long-term cycling performance is attributed to the highly reversible electrochemical activity of Li6PS5Cl revealed by ex situ XRD and XPS analyses.

Commercial lithium-ion batteries have safety risks due to the use of electrolyte-containing flammable organic solvents. The development of all solid-state lithium ion batteries with solid electrolyte is a feasible technical way to improve the safety of batteries. In this work, PVDF-based composite solid-state electrolytes (CSEs) were prepared by coupling Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). The electrochemical performance and interfacial compatibility between composite electrolyte and electrode were improved by the combination of appropriate amount of Li-ion-conducting particles and the insulating polymer. The corresponding solid-state battery of LiFePO 4 |PVDF-LLZTO-CSE| Li is fabricated and delivers initial discharge capacity of 162.4 mAh g -1 , and coulomb efficiency is approximately 98.5%. And the solid-state battery exhibits satisfactory rate capability and cycling stability at room temperature. This study suggests that a combination of the lithium garnet particles and insulating polymer is one of the promising methods to solve the problem of liquid electrolyte.

As a polymer host, one polymeric ionic liquid poly(methyl methacrylate-1-vinyl-3-ethyl-imidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide) (abbr. P(MMA-co-VEImTFSI)) was successfully synthesized and characterized. Four poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (abbr. PVDF-HFP)-based polymer electrolytes were prepared by blending 0, 5,15, and 25 wt% P(MMA-co-VEImTFSI). The electrochemical performances of the prepared electrolytes were studied carefully. The results revealed that increasing the polymeric ionic liquid content, the ionic conductivity of the polymer electrolytes could be enhanced and it obeyed the Arrhenius rule. The highest ionic conductivity of the polymer electrolytes was up to 2.09 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at room temperature. The polymer with 25 wt% polymeric ionic liquid showed an excellent electrochemical performance for supercapacitor electrolyte. After 2000 cycles, the retention of capacitance in P(MMA-co-VEImTFSI)-based polymer electrolyte was above 80%. It implied that the present P(MMA-co-VEImTFSI) polymeric ionic liquid was a decent component candidate in the high-performance polymer electrolytes.

Due to flexible property and light weight, the lithiated Nafion membrane swollen with PC (PC-Li-Nafion) has been employed as both solid-state electrolyte and separator to fabricate solid-state Li-S cells. The electrochemical measurements of PC-Li-Nafion membrane show that its Li-ion transference number is 0.928, ionic conductivity of 2.1 × 10 −4 S cm −1 can be achieved at 70 °C and its electrochemical window is 0 ∼ +4.1 V vs. Li + /Li. It is observed that the Li dendrites are suppressed by using PC-Li-Nafion membrane due to its single-ion conducting property. The amounts of Li-Nafion resin binder and conductive carbon in the cathode are optimized as 40% and 10% respectively to make a balance of ionic and electronic conductivities . A thin-layer Li-Nafion resin with a thickness of around 2 μm is fabricated between the cathode and PC-Li-Nafion membrane to improve the interfacial contact and further enhance the specific capacity of the cell. When measured at 70 °C, the Li-S cell delivers a reversible specific capacity of 1072.8 mAh g −1 (S) at 0.05 C and 895 mAh g −1 (S) at 1 C. The capacity retention at 1 C is 89% after 100 cycles. These results suggest that high-performance solid-state Li-S cells can be fabricated with the Li-Nafion polymer electrolyte .

Transparent and flexible electronics research is a lively and promising domain that holds immense potential for a plethora of innovative applications in consumer electronics, healthcare, and renewable energy sectors. It would be extremely beneficial to develop internal energy sources that are transparent and do not alter the visual appearance would. In this study, we introduce the design of a transparent and flexible zinc-ion solid-state battery (TFZSB), all of whose component elements, such as the electrode, electrolyte/diaphragm, and packaging, are made of transparent and soft materials. The electrodes have been constructed with a framework of nanotube (NT) networks, while the electrolyte is built from a polyacrylamide (PAM) hydrogel material. The suggested electrode design effectively leverages the outstanding optical properties and flexibility of the NT network, while the construction assimilates the PAM hydrogel for providing electrical protection and fabricate the electrolyte, culminating in a resilient interface, which confers exceptional electrochemical stability under varying mechanical strains. With a strong visible-light spectrum transmittance of >80 % and a retention Coulombic efficiency of >92 % under large-scale strains, the TFZSB demonstrates a mass specific capacity of 122.6mAh/g. This TFZSB constitutes a breakthrough in the realm of wearable and smart electronics, and holds the potential to unlock a multitude of opportunities in the future by bridging the domains of energy storage and flexibility/transparency.

Polyethylene oxide (PEO)-based solid polymer electrolytes are regarded as promising electrolyte materials because of their safety and flexibility. However, low ionic conductivity at ambient temperature and poor mechanical properties have been a hindrance to its development. In this work, we thermally compressed the PEO-based electrolytes and explored the ionic conductivity, mechanical performance, free volume, and thermal properties of the electrolyte under different thermal pre-compressing strains (TPC-strains). The results show that TPC-strain can significantly improve the ionic conductivity, in-plane strength, stiffness, and cell specific capacity as well as the mechanical integrity of solid polymer electrolytes within the battery environment. However, it also results in a reduction in the modulus and stiffness of the SPEs in the through-plane. In particular, applying a TPC-strain of 10%–20% to the SPEs by thermal compressing may be a suitable option, which can increase the ionic conductivity of the through-plane to a factor of 3.4 compared with the uncompressed electrolyte, and increase the in-plane strength by up to 141%, resulting in better mechanical integrity during charging/discharging processes. At the same time, the compression modulus can be maintained at 80% or higher.

Amorphous conductors with high ionic conductivity are a promising candidate as electrolytes in all-solid state batteries. In this work, we prepared amorphous Ag 3 PS 4 conductor via a chemo-mechanical milling process, and then characterized its structure and electrochemical properties . The results show that Ag + conductivity of the amorphous Ag 3 PS 4 was remarkably enhanced by three orders of magnitude compared to its crystalline counterpart. Furthermore, the amorphous sample exhibits lower activation energy ( E a ) for ionic conductivity as a function of temperature. Structural characterizations indicate that the tetrahedral [PS 4 ] units were retained in amorphous Ag 3 PS 4 , but the Ag + ions became more liberated than those in the crystalline state, leading to the enhanced migration of Ag + ions, thereby, the ionic conductivity in amorphous Ag 3 PS 4 is drastically increased. This work provides insight into the crucial role of the disorder in raising the ionic conductivity of amorphized chalcogenide materials containing mobile ions.

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) employing sulfide electrolyte and lithium (Li) anode have received increasing attention due to the intrinsic safety and high energy density. However, the thick electrolyte layer and lithium dendrites formed at the electrolyte/Li anode interface hinder the realization of high-performance ASSLBs . Herein, a novel membrane consisting of Li 6 PS 5 Cl (LPSCl), poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and Li-salt (LiTFSI) was prepared as sulfide-based composite solid electrolyte (LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI) (LPSCl:PEO = 97:3 wt/wt; EO:Li = 8:1 mol/mol), which delivers high ionic conductivity (1.1 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) and wide electrochemical window (4.9 V vs. Li + /Li) at 25 °C. In addition, an ex-situ artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film enriched with LiF and Li 3 N was designed as a protective layer on Li anode (Li(SEI)) to suppress the growth of lithium dendrites. Benefiting from the synergy of sulfide-based composite solid electrolyte and ex-situ artificial SEI, cells of S-CNTs/LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI/Li(SEI) and Al 2 O 3 @LiNi 0.5 Co 0.3 Mn 0.2 O 2 /LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI/Li(SEI) are assembled and both exhibit high initial discharge capacity of 1221.1 mAh g −1 (135.8 mAh g −1 ) and enhanced cycling stability with 81.6% capacity retention over 200 cycles at 0.05 C (89.2% over 100 cycles at 0.1 C). This work provides a new insight into the synergy of composite solid electrolyte and artificial SEI for achieving high-performance ASSLBs .
