Batteries and Fuel Cells

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...

Preparation and Reactions of Sulfides

Preparation and Reactions of Sulfides

Sulfides are the sulfur analog of ethers, just as thiols are the sulfur analog of alcohol. Like ethers, sulfides also consist of two hydrocarbon groups bonded to the central sulfur atom. Depending upon the type of groups present, sulfides can be symmetrical or asymmetrical. Symmetrical sulfides can be prepared via an SN2 reaction between 2 equivalents of an alkyl halide and one equivalent of sodium sulfide.

Background:

Anode-less sulfide-based all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are advanced energy storage solutions with high energy density and improved safety.
Eliminating excess lithium metal simplifies design but creates critical challenges at the lithium metal|solid electrolyte interface.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the fundamental interfacial and electrochemical challenges in anode-less sulfide ASSBs.
To discuss material and structural strategies for stabilizing these batteries.

Main Methods:

Review of recent experimental studies on anode-less sulfide ASSBs.
Analysis of interfacial phenomena, including lithium plating/stripping, void formation, and parasitic reactions.
Evaluation of stabilization strategies such as current collector modification, interlayers, prelithiation, and artificial interphase engineering.

Main Results:

Anode-less ASSBs face issues like unstable lithium plating/stripping, void formation, and interfacial contact loss, leading to poor reversibility.
Stabilization strategies effectively suppress dendrite growth, enhance interfacial integrity, and manage lithium inventory.
Current collector modifications, lithiophilic interlayers, cathode prelithiation, and artificial interphases are crucial for performance.

Conclusions:

Significant progress has been made in stabilizing anode-less sulfide ASSBs through various material and structural engineering approaches.
Future research should focus on scalable and commercially viable designs for robust, high-performance solid-state battery architectures.
Developing rational design principles is essential for advancing this promising energy storage technology.
