Coupling electrolyte mechanical reinforcement and interfacial stress relaxation for near-ambient sulfide all-solid-state lithium metal batteries

Nature · By Hyeongseok Lee ·

The Brief

  • Abstract says all-solid-state lithium metal batteries can suffer dendrite growth and interfacial stress at low pressures.
  • The authors couple a self-polymerizable composite sulfide electrolyte with interfacial stress relaxation.
  • The stated aim is near-ambient-pressure sulfide all-solid-state lithium metal batteries.

Why it matters

Operating near ambient pressure would reduce the bulky stack-pressure hardware that solid-state battery designs currently need, which matters for practical cell and pack engineering.
