The practical application of the metallic lithium anode is suppressed by the highly unstable interface between electrolytes and lithium metal during the process of lithium plating/stripping. A perfect solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) can inhibit detrimental parasitic reactions, thereby improving the cycling performance of the metallic lithium anode. In this work, a high-purity solid lithium difluorobis(oxalato) phosphate (LiDFOP) is synthesized and an outstanding organic–inorganic hybrid SEI is obtained in an ether-based electrolyte for the first time induced by LiDFOP. The preferential reduction of LiDFOP can form an SEI rich in LiF and LixPOyFz species, thereby improving the conductivity and stability of the SEI. In addition, cationic-induced ring-opening polymerization between LiDFOP and 1,3-dioxolane endows the SEI with excellent adaptability to the reiterative volume change of the metallic lithium anode. Therefore, the Li/Cu battery maintains a high coulombic efficiency of 98.37% at a current density of 2 mA/cm2 for 200 cycles, and the Li/Li symmetrical battery shows stable voltage hysteresis over 1000 h even under the condition of 5 mA/cm2. The Li/S battery fabricated employing the electrolyte with LiDFOP shows significant improvement of cycling performance as well. These results manifest that the formation of an organic–inorganic hybrid SEI from LiDFOP can be employed as a new strategy to overcome the problem from the unstable SEI in metallic lithium batteries.
