Green mechanochemical Li foil surface reconstruction toward long-life Li-metal pouch cells

Kecheng Long, Shaozhen Huang, Han Wang, Anbang Wang, Yuejiao Chen, Zhijian Liu, Yu Zhang, Zhibin Wu, Weikun Wang, Libao Chen

Summary: This study proposes a low-cost Li foil surface-reconstruction strategy using a mechanochemistry reaction between fumed silica and Li to achieve dendrite-free Li metal anode. The reconstructed surface enhances the electrode dynamics and constructs an anionphilic interface, leading to significantly improved low-temperature and cycling performance of Li metal batteries while maintaining high energy density and stable cycle performance.

Heterostructured metal oxides realized by quenching-induced structural transformation

Changchun Ye, Zhenghui Pan, Qinghua Zhang, Fang Yin, Yanan Wang, Yifei Li, Guangxu Chen, Jia Li, Yongcai Qiu, Geoffrey I. N. Waterhouse, Lin Gu, Zhang Lin, Lin Guo

Summary: A facile synthesis route for heterostructured metal oxides via quenching-induced structural transformation was developed. Multiple quenching triggered the transformation from NiMoO4 to NiFe2O4, creating a novel heterostructure, and the pre-quenching generated disordered defect structure can promote subsequent quenching regulation.

Achieving a high loading of cathode in PVDF-based solid-state battery

Yang Liu, Xufei An, Ke Yang, Jiabin Ma, Jinshuo Mi, Danfeng Zhang, Xing Cheng, Yuhang Li, Yuetao Ma, Ming Liu, Feiyu Kang, Yan-Bing He

Summary: The lack of understanding of ion transport in the cathode of PVDF-based solid-state lithium metal batteries limits their performance. The use of carbon-coated Li1.4Al0.4Ti1.6(PO4)3 nanowires as a cathode filler improves the diffusion of ions in the thick cathode, leading to enhanced battery performance and stability.
