A Li metal-SiO x hybrid anode enabling synergistic plating/alloying dual-mechanism lithium storage

Balancing specific energy and cycle durability remains a critical challenge for practical battery systems, as conventional single-mechanism anodes struggle to optimize both simultaneously. Here, we engineer a symbiotic Li-SiO x hybrid anode enabling spatiotemporally coordinated L...

Deuterated Aprotic Electrolytes Enable Rechargeable Lithium Batteries With High (Electro)Chemical and Thermal Stability

ABSTRACT Electrolytes with exceptional (electro)chemical and thermal stability are essential prerequisites for high‐energy‐density rechargeable lithium batteries. Conventional aprotic ether and ester solvents contain polarizable C─H bonds that trigger parasitic proton transfer re...
