Understanding the Role of Lithium Metal Microstructure in Chemo-Mechanical Instability of Solid-State Batteries

Abstract Increased energy density and safety relative to conventional lithium (Li)-ion batteries motivate the development of solid-state batteries (SSBs). However, maintaining interface stability at the metal anode–solid electrolyte (SE) interface remains a critical challenge to...

Pressure-Driven Performance and Thermal Safety Tradeoff in Solid-State Batteries

Abstract Solid-state batteries (SSBs) offer high energy density and improved safety, but their performance is limited by poor particle contact and sluggish ion transport across solid–solid interfaces. External pressure improves electrochemical performance by enhancing interfacial...
