Summary: Garnet-type LLZO is a stable solid-state fast-ion conductor, but the large interfacial resistance between LLZO and cathode materials limits its practical application. By using pre-coated LCO particles and LBO method, the interfacial resistance was successfully reduced on the LLZO substrate, achieving relatively high capacity retention.

Summary: Solid-state Li-metal batteries have the potential for high safety and high energy densities, but their practical application is limited by the large interfacial resistance. In this study, a low interfacial resistance was achieved by depositing an LCO film onto an Al-doped LLZO substrate and pre-coating LCO particles with LBO. The all-solid-state Li/LLZO/LBO-LCO cells demonstrated high capacity retention and the degradation mechanism was investigated using EIS and in-situ SEM analysis.

Summary: Introducing a thin Ag layer between Li and Li10GeP2S12 for in situ formation of a Li-Ag alloy interface can improve the interfacial stability and electrochemical properties of all-solid-state lithium-metal batteries. Optimizing the Ag thicknesses can achieve a steady voltage evolution and high reversible capacity, demonstrating the validity of the Ag layer in improving the cycle life of ASSLMBs. This work highlights the importance of re-engineering the Li/SE interface and provides a new strategy for enhancing the performance of ASSLMBs.

Summary: Solid-state lithium batteries (SSLBs) are one of the most promising energy storage systems due to their high energy density and long-term safety. However, they face severe interfacial issues. It is crucial to investigate the dynamic evolution of electrodes, solid-state electrolytes, and their interfaces during the charge/discharge process and understand the interfacial mechanism to improve their compatibility and electrochemical performance.

Summary: A fully coupled electrochemical-mechanical-thermal model was established to investigate the behavior of all-solid-state thin-film Li-ion batteries at low temperatures. It was found that mass-transfer overpotential across the electrolyte and charge-transfer overpotential at the cathode/electrolyte interface are key factors affecting battery performance.
