All-solid-state Li–S batteries (ASSLSBs) offer an opportunity to realize both high energy density , safety and reliability, via eliminating the polysulfides shuttle effect and flammable liquid electrolyte. However, the sluggish kinetics of S and Li 2 S solid conversion results in low discharge capacity at high active material loading, which is critical for ASSLSBs to implement the high energy density potential. Herein, nitrogen doped-carbon (NC) coated Li 2 S (Li 2 S@NC composite) is developed for ASSLSBs that highly improves electrochemical performance. A thin and uniform nitrogen doped-carbon layer is coated on Li 2 S via pyrolysis deposition approach to prepare Li 2 S@NC. The as obtained Li 2 S@NC composite exhibits greatly enhanced electrochemical performance with high reversible capacity, high coulombic efficiency of ~100%, good rate capability and cycling stability. Particularly, outstanding electrochemical performance with high capacity of 931 mAh g −1 can also be obtained at both high Li 2 S content (43%) and high areal Li 2 S loading (10.4 mg cm −2 ).

An insightful study on the fundamental lithium storage behavior of all-solid-state lithium battery with a structure of LiNi 0.8 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 (NCA)/Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 /Li-In is carried out in this work. The relationship between electrochemical performances and particle size, surface impurities and defects of the NCA positive material is systematically investigated. It is found that a ball-milling technique can decrease the particle size and remove surface impurities of the NCA cathode while also give rise to surface defects which could be recovered by a post-annealing process. The results indicate that the interfacial resistance between the NCA and Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 is obviously decreased during the ball-milling followed by a post-annealing. Consequently, the discharge capacity of NCA in the NCA/Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 /Li-In solid-state battery is significantly enhanced, which exhibits a discharge capacity of 146 mAh g −1 at 25 °C.

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.

Li 7 P 3 S 11 (70Li 2 S·30P 2 S 5 ) sulfide is a promising electrolyte candidate for all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) owing to its high ionic conducivity and wide electrochemical stability window. However, the sensitivity to moisture and the poor interfacial compatibility with electrodes limit the conventional application of Li 7 P 3 S 11 . Herein, we present a substitution strategy to produce a O-incorporated 70Li 2 S·(30-x)P 2 S 5 ·xP 2 O 5 (mol%) sulfide electrolyte to address above issues. The elaborately designed electrolyte is prepared via wet vibration ball milling technique with P 2 O 5 substitution content of 1, 3 and 5. As a result, the 70Li 2 S·27P 2 S 5 ·3P 2 O 5 electrolyte displays the highest ionic conductivity of 2.61× 10 −3 S cm −1 which outperforms than that of pristine Li 7 P 3 S 11 (ionic conductivity of 1.35 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) and the assembled LiCoO 2 @LiNbO 3 /70Li 2 S·27P 2 S 5 ·3P 2 O 5 /Li-In ASSLB exhibits the superior capacity retention of 93.2% after 100 cycles at 0.5C. The reason for the developed electrochemical performance lies in the substitution of the non-bridging sulfur atom with bridging oxygen atom, from which the interaction between electrolyte and lithium ions is weakened, thereby the rapid transfer of lithium ions is facilitated. Furthermore, Raman and XRD results indicate that the adverse interfacial reactions are suppressed through P 2 O 5 substitution. This work suggests that P 2 O 5 substitution is an effective strategy for sulfide electrolyte toward high energy all-solid-state lithium batteries.

The use of garnet-type conductors as electrolytes for safe lithium solid-state batteries is impeded by the lack of critical processing strategy to stabilize and densify the cubic lithium garnets. The synthesis and processing of dense cubic lithium garnets are typically depending on solid state reaction as a result of unintentional Al contamination from the alumina crucibles at temperatures up to 1230 °C. High Al concentration is also believed to induce the sluggish migration of lithium ions . Here, we demonstrate an ultrathin, conformal γ-Al 2 O 3 surface coating on garnet solids by a hybrid microemulsion solid-state method for accomplishing rational and controllable synthesis and processing of dense cubic garnets with low Al concentration. The γ-Al 2 O 3 coating demonstrates fast-ion conducting Al-doped Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 phase with low Al concentration (~0.17 mol per formula unit), low tetragonal-to-cubic phase transformation temperature of 500 °C, and total conductivity of ~4.4 × 10 − 4 S cm − 1 . Specifically, the desired microstructures of the sintered pellets with uniform grains are revealed. As a proof-of-concept, we demonstrate that the nanoscale γ-Al 2 O 3 modification garnet conductor Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 is available to suppress lithium dendrites in symmetric Li/γ-Al 2 O 3 coating Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 /Li cells during lithium plating/stripping at room temperature, with current densities of 0.026 to 0.5 mA cm − 2 . The Li/γ-Al 2 O 3 coating Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 /LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O 2 cell delivered a high initial discharge capacity of ~164.2 mAh g − 1 , more importantly, an outstanding cycling performance with a capacity retention of 90.16% after 30 cycles at 0.1C and room temperature. This new synthesis route and the utilization of nanoscale γ-Al 2 O 3 surface modification could open up new avenue to lithium garnet conductors with reliable synthesis for all-solid-state lithium batteries application.

The poor interface between the active materials, solid electrolytes, and conductive additives in composite cathode materials is the key factor restricting the performance of the all-solid-state lithium-sulfur battery. Here, the composite cathode material was prepared through the method of one-step ball milling. The sulfide electrolyte Li 3 PS 4 (LPS) was formed on the surface of the active material Li 2 S while the conductive additives were incorporated, and the conductive ions and electronic network were constructed simultaneously. After adding an appropriate amount of carbon nanotubes (cnt), the composite cathode exhibited high specific capacity of 1145.2 mAh g −1 after 30 times of cycling at a current density of 0.2 mA cm −2 , and the battery with ultrahigh areal Li 2 S loading also displays high capacity of 962.6 mA g −1 . The composite cathode with high Li 2 S content (56.3%) was prepared, with excellent performance exhibited: the capacity is 741 mAh g −1 after 30 times of cycling at a current density of 0.2 mA cm −2 .
Without additional sulfide electrolyte, the composite cathode materials were prepared by one-step ball milling with lithium sulfide, phosphorus pentasulfide, acetylene black, and carbon nanotubes as raw materials.

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 .

In this work, Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 (LLZO)-based membrane electrolyte, which has good flexibility and can be easily mass-produced, is proposed to address the intrinsic defects of ceramic electrolytes . The LLZO-based membrane electrolyte is electrochemically stable in the voltage range of 0–5.2 V vs. Li/Li + due to the good oxidative stability of LLZO. We also develop a simple and low-cost approach to fabricate the all-solid-state lithium battery (ASSLB). Wet coating and hot pressing are applied to form a continuous and homogeneous electrolyte layer on a cathode layer. Thanks to the integrated preparation process, there is no obvious interface between the cathode layer and the electrolyte layer, hence reducing the interface resistance. The Li/LiFePO 4 batteries exhibit desirable cycling performance at 60 °C, which deliver a maximum discharge specific capacity of 151.6 mAh·g −1 at 0.1C and maintain 97.8% of the capacity after 50 cycles.

The lithium dendrite problem of Li 7 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) solid electrolyte restricts the practical application and development of all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs). Herein, a LiPON interlayer with Li + conductive and electron non-conductive dynamic properties is constructed at the Li/LLZTO interface. Results show that the electronic conductivity of solid electrolyte after LiPON modification decreased by nearly three orders of magnitude, indicating that it has good ability to hinder electron conduction . The interlayer enhances the wettability between the Li metal anode and LLZTO, resulting in a decrease of battery resistance from 3400 Ω to 700 Ω. The critical current density of the ASSLBs increase from 0.1 mA cm −2 to 1.2 mA cm −2 at room temperature, and the battery cycle number increase from 31 h to over 1000 h. XPS deep etching results show that the LiPON/LLZTO interface has good electrochemical stability. The Kelvin probe force microscope displays a sharp increase in potential within the LiPON interlayer, indicating its successful hindrance of electron conduction to the solid electrolyte. The effective inhibition of lithium dendrites growth is due to LiPON can promote the Li + transmission from LLZTO solid electrolyte to Li anode, and also hinder the electron conduction to LLZTO to form lithium dendrites.

A new class of copolymer electrolytes with tunable network structure is successfully designed and prepared via a facile one-pot reaction. The trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether (TMPEG) is cross-linked with poly (ethylene glycol) diamine (NPEG) to create well-defined solid network polymer electrolyte (SNPE). The network structure could be tuned by changing the molar ratio of TMPEG and NPEG or the molecular weight of NPEG. The effects of molecular weight of NPEG and molar ratio of EO/Li + on the ionic conductivity are systematically investigated. The optimal electrolyte TMPEG-NPEG4K[2:1]-16:1 presents a maximum conductivity of 1.10 × 10 −4 S cm −1 under 30 °C, and an 18-fold ionic conductivity enhancement in that of PEO-based electrolyte. Furthermore, it also exhibits wide electrochemical window (0–5.4 V), excellent compatibility with metallic Li, and superior mechanical properties. The all-solid-state lithium batteries LiFePO 4 /Li are assembled with TMPEG-NPEG4K[2:1]-16:1 electrolyte, and present good cycling and rate performance under 60 °C. The initial discharge specific capacities of the batteries are 161.7 mAh g −1 at 0.2 C and 132.7 mAh g −1 at 1 C, and the capacity retention ratio can be retained at 90.6% and 90.5% after 100 cycles. This new copolymer electrolyte may become a promising candidate for applications in all-solid-state lithium battery.

The combination of high conductivity and good stability against Li is not easy to achieve for solid electrolytes , hindering the development of high energy solid-state batteries . In this study, doped electrolytes of Li 3 P 1- x Sb x S 4-2.5 x O 2.5 x are successfully prepared via the high energy ball milling and subsequent heat treatment . Plenty of techniques like XRD , Raman, SEM, EDS and TEM are utilized to characterize the crystal structures, particle sizes, and morphologies of the glass-ceramic electrolytes. Among them, the Li 3 P 0.98 Sb 0.02 S 3.95 O 0.05 ( x = 0.02) exhibits the highest ionic conductivity (∼1.08 mS cm −1 ) at room temperature with an excellent stability against lithium. In addition, all-solid-state lithium batteries are assembled with LiCoO 2 as cathode, Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 /Li 3 P 0.98 Sb 0.02 S 3.95 O 0.05 as the bi-layer electrolyte, and lithium as anode. The constructed solid-state batteries delivers a high initial discharge capacity of 133 mAh g −1 at 0.1C in the range of 3.0–4.3 V vs. Li/Li + at room temperature, and shows a capacity retention of 78.6% after 50 cycles.
