Passivation of Lithium Metal Anode via Hybrid Ionic Liquid Electrolyte toward Stable Li Plating/Stripping.

ABSTRACT: Hybrid electrolyte of ionic liquid and ethers is used to passivate the surface of Li metal surface via modification of the as-formed solid electrolyte interphase with N-propyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide (Py₁₃TFSI), thereby reducing the side reactions between the Li metal and electrolyte, leading to remarkably suppressed Li dendrite growth and mitigating Li metal corrosion.

Plating and Stripping Calcium Metal in Potassium Hexafluorophosphate Electrolyte toward a Stable Hybrid Solid Electrolyte Interphase.

Project description:The use of calcium (Ca) metal anodes in batteries is currently challenged by the development of a suitable solid electrolyte interface (SEI) that enables effective Ca2+ ion transport. Native calcium electrolytes produce a passivation layer on the surface of the calcium electrodes during cycling, causing a decrease in capacity during cycling and the need for large overpotentials. The use of a hybrid SEI is a strategy to mitigate the uncontrolled production of a passivation layer and reduce the overpotentials needed for the plating and stripping of calcium. Here, we report the development of a hybrid potassium (K)/Ca SEI layer investigated in symmetric Ca//Ca cell configurations. Using KPF6 salt in a ternary mixture of carbonate solvent (EC/EMC/DMC), Ca//Ca cells can be cycled up to 200 h at a capacity of 0.15 mAh/cm2 with a current density of 0.025 mA/cm2. The symmetrical cells consistently cycle at overpotentials of 1.8 V. Ex-situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) of cycled electrodes reveals plating and stripping of both calcium and potassium. Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) maps confirm the plating of calcium and potassium during galvanostatic cycling. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) cross-sectional views of the calcium electrodes reveal a continuous SEI layer formed over the calcium metal. XRD analysis reveals the SEI layer consists of K-based inorganics along with the identification of permanent and transient phases. FTIR outlines the parallel plating of both calcium and potassium at both regions of redox activity. Raman spectroscopy of the electrolyte reveals compositional changes over the course of cycling that promote increased plating and stripping. The results indicate that potassium electrolytes are a possible route for tuning the SEI to enable reversible calcium electrochemical cycling.

Mechanism of stable lithium plating and stripping in a metal-interlayer-inserted anode-less solid-state lithium metal battery.

Project description:To reliably operate anode-less solid-state Li metal batteries, wherein precipitated Li acts as the anode, stabilizing the interface between the solid electrolyte and electrode is crucial. The interface can be controlled by a metal interlayer on the electrolyte to form a Li alloy buffer that facilitates stable Li plating/stripping, thereby mitigating the loss of physical contact and preventing short circuits. However, the mechanism governing stable Li plating/stripping in the metal interlayer without degrading battery materials remains unclear owing to an incomplete understanding of the dynamic and complex electrochemical reactions in the solid state. Through multiple operando and post-mortem analyses of the Li deposition behavior in the morphology, chemistry and microstructure, a close correlation is found between the Li-metal alloying process with the microstructural evolution and electrochemical performance when Ag, Au, Zn, and Cu interlayers were adopted on the garnet-type solid electrolyte Li6.5La3Zr1.5Ta0.5O12. The Ag interlayer improved the interfacial stability enabled by Ag-dissolved Li, which inhibited dendritic growth, passing through the phase-separated Li-Ag alloy microstructure, while the other metals did not because of the Li plating at the Li-metal alloy/solid electrolyte interface. This work provides fundamental guidance for material selection and interface design, advancing the development of anode-less solid-state batteries.

Observation of lithium stripping in super-concentrated electrolyte at potentials lower than regular Li stripping.

Project description:Lithium plating/stripping was investigated under constant current mode using a copper powder electrode in a super-concentrated electrolyte of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)amide (LiFSA) with methylphenylamino-di(trifluoroethyl) phosphate (PNMePh) and vinylene carbonate (VC) as additives. Typical Li plating/stripping for Cu electrodes in organic electrolytes of conventional lithium batteries proceeds at potentials of several millivolts versus a Li counter electrode. In contrast, a large overpotential of hundreds of millivolts was observed for Li plating/stripping with the super-concentrated electrolyte. When Li stripping started immediately after Li plating and with no rest time between plating and stripping, two potential plateaus, i.e., two-step Li stripping, was observed. The potential plateau for the 1st stripping step appeared at -0.2 V versus a Li metal counter electrode. The electrical capacity for the 1st stripping step was 0.04 mA h cm-2, which indicates irregular Li stripping. Two-step Li stripping was also recorded using cyclic voltammetry. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies indicated that the two-step Li stripping behaviour reflected two different solid electrolyte interphases (SEIs) on electrodeposited Li in a Cu electrode. The SEI for the 1st-step stripping was in a transition period of the SEI formation. The open circuit voltage (OCV) relaxation with an order of tens of hours was detected after Li plating and before Li stripping. The in operando EIS study suggested a decrease of the charge transfer resistance in the Cu powder electrode during the OCV relaxation. Since the capacitance for the voltage relaxation was a dozen microfarads, it had a slight contribution to the 1st-step Li stripping behaviour. The voltage relaxation indicated the possibility that it is difficult for Li ions to be electrodeposited or that the Li plating is in a quasi-stable state.

Continuous plating/stripping behavior of solid-state lithium metal anode in a 3D ion-conductive framework.

Project description:The increasing demands for efficient and clean energy-storage systems have spurred the development of Li metal batteries, which possess attractively high energy densities. For practical application of Li metal batteries, it is vital to resolve the intrinsic problems of Li metal anodes, i.e., the formation of Li dendrites, interfacial instability, and huge volume changes during cycling. Utilization of solid-state electrolytes for Li metal anodes is a promising approach to address those issues. In this study, we use a 3D garnet-type ion-conductive framework as a host for the Li metal anode and study the plating and stripping behaviors of the Li metal anode within the solid ion-conductive host. We show that with a solid-state ion-conductive framework and a planar current collector at the bottom, Li is plated from the bottom and rises during deposition, away from the separator layer and free from electrolyte penetration and short circuit. Owing to the solid-state deposition property, Li grows smoothly in the pores of the garnet host without forming Li dendrites. The dendrite-free deposition and continuous rise/fall of Li metal during plating/stripping in the 3D ion-conductive host promise a safe and durable Li metal anode. The solid-state Li anode shows stable cycling at 0.5 mA cm-2 for 300 h with a small overpotential, showing a significant improvement compared with reported Li anodes with ceramic electrolytes. By fundamentally eliminating the dendrite issue, the solid Li metal anode shows a great potential to build safe and reliable Li metal batteries.

Ultra-Low Concentration Electrolyte Enabling LiF-Rich SEI and Dense Plating/Stripping Processes for Lithium Metal Batteries.

Project description:The interface structure of the electrode is closely related to the electrochemical performance of lithium-metal batteries (LMBs). In particular, a high-quality solid electrode interface (SEI) and uniform, dense lithium plating/stripping processes play a key role in achieving stable LMBs. Herein, a LiF-rich SEI and a uniform and dense plating/stripping process of the electrolyte by reducing the electrolyte concentration without changing the solvation structure, thereby avoiding the high cost and poor wetting properties of high-concentration electrolytes are achieved. The ultra-low concentration electrolyte with an unchanged Li+ solvation structure can restrain the inhomogeneous diffusion flux of Li+ , thereby achieving more uniform lithium deposition and stripping processes while maintaining a LiF-rich SEI. The LiIICu battery with this electrolyte exhibits enhanced cycling stability for 1000 cycles with a coulombic efficiency of 99% at 1 mA cm-2 and 1 mAh cm-2 . For the LiIILiFePO4 pouch cell, the capacity retention values at 0.5 and 1 C are 98.6% and 91.4%, respectively. This study offers a new perspective for the commercial application of low-cost electrolytes with ultra-low concentrations and high concentration effects.

Regulated Zn Plating and Stripping by a Multifunctional Polymer-Alloy Interphase Layer for Stable Zn Metal Anode.

Project description:Metallic zinc electrode with a high theoretical capacity of 820 mAh g-1 is highly considered as a promising candidate for next-generation rechargeable batteries. However, the unavoidable hydrogen evolution, uncontrolled dendrite growth, and severe passivation reaction badly hinder its practical implementations. Herein, a robust polymer-alloy artificial protective layer is designed to realize dendrite-free Zn metal anode by the integration of zincophilic SnSb nanoparticles with Nafion. In comparison to the bare Zn electrode, the Nafion-SnSb coated Zn (NFSS@Zn) electrode exhibits lower nucleation energy barrier, more uniform electric field distribution and stronger anti-corrosion capability, thus availably suppressing the Zn dendrite growth and interfacial side reactions. As a consequence, the NFSS@Zn electrode exhibits a long cycle life over 1500 h at 1 mA cm-2 with an ultra-low voltage hysteresis (25 mV). Meanwhile, when paired with a MnO2 cathode, the as-prepared full cell also demonstrates stable performance for 1000 cycles at 3 A g-1 . This work provides an inspired approach to boost the performance of Zn anodes.

Uniform Li Plating/Stripping within Ni Macropore Arrays Enabled by Regulated Electric Field Distribution for Ultra-Stable Li-Metal Anodes.

Project description:Although Li-metal anodes are extremely attractive owing to the ultrahigh theoretical specific capacity, the low Coulombic efficiency and severe safety hazards resulting from uncontrollable Li dendrites growth hinder their widespread implementation. Herein, we propose a novel design of Ni macropore arrays for the functional Li deposition host. Benefiting from the regulated electric field distribution, Li nucleation and growth can be well confined within conductive Ni macropores. Consequently, the Ni macropore array electrode exhibits stable Li deposition behavior, i.e., high Coulombic efficiency of above 97% over 400 cycles for 1.0 mAh cm-2. Most importantly, the LiFePO4 || Li-Ni macropore arrays full cell also shows greatly enhanced cycling stability (90.3 mAh g-1 at 1 C after 700 cycles), holding great promise for high-performance rechargeable Li metal batteries.

Toward an Understanding of SEI Formation and Lithium Plating on Copper in Anode-Free Batteries.

Project description:"Anode-free" batteries present a significant advantage due to their substantially higher energy density and ease of assembly in a dry air atmosphere. However, issues involving lithium dendrite growth and low cycling Coulombic efficiencies during operation remain to be solved. Solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation on Cu and its effect on Li plating are studied here to understand the interplay between the Cu current collector surface chemistry and plated Li morphology. A native interphase layer (N-SEI) on the Cu current collector was observed with solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (ssNMR) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) studies showed that the nature of the N-SEI is affected by the copper interface composition. An X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) study identified a relationship between the applied voltage and SEI composition. In addition to the typical SEI components, the SEI contains copper oxides (Cu x O) and their reduction reaction products. Parasitic electrochemical reactions were observed via in situ NMR measurements of Li plating efficiency. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies revealed a correlation between the morphology of the plated Li and the SEI homogeneity, current density, and rest time in the electrolyte before plating. Via ToF-SIMS, we found that the preferential plating of Li on Cu is governed by the distribution of ionically conducting rather than electronic conducting compounds. The results together suggest strategies for mitigating dendrite formation by current collector pretreatment and controlled SEI formation during the first battery charge.

Allylic ionic liquid electrolyte-assisted electrochemical surface passivation of LiCoO2 for advanced, safe lithium-ion batteries.

Project description:Room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) electrolytes have attracted much attention for use in advanced, safe lithium-ion batteries (LIB) owing to their nonvolatility, high conductivity, and great thermal stability. However, LIBs containing RTIL-electrolytes exhibit poor cyclability because electrochemical side reactions cause problematic surface failures of the cathode. Here, we demonstrate that a thin, homogeneous surface film, which is electrochemically generated on LiCoO2 from an RTIL-electrolyte containing an unsaturated substituent on the cation (1-allyl-1-methylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, AMPip-TFSI), can avert undesired side reactions. The derived surface film comprised of a high amount of organic species from the RTIL cations homogenously covered LiCoO2 with a <25 nm layer and helped suppress unfavorable thermal reactions as well as electrochemical side reactions. The superior performance of the cell containing the AMPip-TFSI electrolyte was further elucidated by surface, electrochemical, and thermal analyses.

Lithium metal stripping beneath the solid electrolyte interphase.

Project description:Lithium stripping is a crucial process coupled with lithium deposition during the cycling of Li metal batteries. Lithium deposition has been widely studied, whereas stripping as a subsurface process has rarely been investigated. Here we reveal the fundamental mechanism of stripping on lithium by visualizing the interface between stripped lithium and the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). We observed nanovoids formed between lithium and the SEI layer after stripping, which are attributed to the accumulation of lithium metal vacancies. High-rate dissolution of lithium causes vigorous growth and subsequent aggregation of voids, followed by the collapse of the SEI layer, i.e., pitting. We systematically measured the lithium polarization behavior during stripping and find that the lithium cation diffusion through the SEI layer is the rate-determining step. Nonuniform sites on typical lithium surfaces, such as grain boundaries and slip lines, greatly accelerated the local dissolution of lithium. The deeper understanding of this buried interface stripping process provides beneficial clues for future lithium anode and electrolyte design.
