Batteries and Fuel Cells

A battery is a galvanic cell that is used as a source of electrical power for specific applications. Modern batteries exist in a multitude of forms to accommodate various applications, from tiny button batteries such as those that power wristwatches to the very large batteries used to supply backup energy to municipal power grids. Some batteries are designed for single-use applications and cannot be recharged (primary cells), while others are based on conveniently reversible cell reactions that...

Area of Science:

Materials Science
Electrochemistry
Energy Storage

Background:

Solid-state Li metal batteries (SSLMBs) offer high energy density and safety.
Li dendrite growth and poor Li/solid-state electrolyte (SSE) contact cause short circuits in SSLMBs.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a stable Li metal anode that improves interfacial contact with SSEs.
To enhance the safety and cycling performance of SSLMBs.

Main Methods:

Created a lithium-LATP composite anode (Li-LATP) using reaction products of Li and Li_1.3Al_0.3Ti_1.7(PO₄)₃ (LATP).
Investigated the interfacial properties and cycling stability of Li-LATP anodes with garnet-type SSEs in symmetric and full cells.

Main Results:

The Li-LATP composite formed a stable matrix, enhancing Li/SSE contact and alleviating volume changes.
Symmetric cells demonstrated low interfacial resistance (6 Ω cm²) and stable cycling (>2500 h).
Full cells (LiCoO₂/garnet/Li-LATP) achieved high discharge capacity (159 mAh g^-1) and excellent cycling.

Conclusions:

The developed Li-LATP composite anode effectively suppresses Li dendrite penetration and improves interfacial stability in SSLMBs.
This approach significantly enhances the overall safety and electrochemical performance of solid-state batteries.
