Identifying the positive role of lithium hydride in stabilizing Li metal anodes.

Project description:Lithium hydride has been widely identified as the major component of the solid-electrolyte interphase of Li metal batteries (LMBs), but is often regarded as being detrimental to the stabilization of LMBs. Here, we identify the positive and important role of LiH in promoting fast diffusion of Li ions by building a unique three-dimensional (3D) Li metal anode composed of LiMg alloys uniformly confined into graphene-supported LiH nanoparticles. The built-in electric field at the interface between LiH with high Li ion conductivity and LiMg alloys effectively boosts Li diffusion kinetics toward favorable Li plating into lithiophilic LiMg alloys through the surface of LiH. Therefore, the diffusion coefficient of Li ions of the thus-formed 3D structured Li metal anode is 10 times higher than the identical anode without the presence of LiH, and it exhibits a long cycle life of over 1200 hours at 3 mA cm-2 under 5 mA hour cm-2.

Core-Shell Nanoparticle Coating as an Interfacial Layer for Dendrite-Free Lithium Metal Anodes.

Project description:Lithium metal based batteries represent a major challenge and opportunity in enabling a variety of devices requiring high-energy-density storage. However, dendritic lithium growth has limited the practical application of lithium metal anodes. Here we report a nanoporous, flexible and electrochemically stable coating of silica@poly(methyl methacrylate) (SiO2@PMMA) core-shell nanospheres as an interfacial layer on lithium metal anode. This interfacial layer is capable of inhibiting Li dendrite growth while sustaining ionic flux through it, which is attributed to the nanoscaled pores formed among the nanospheres. Enhanced Coulombic efficiencies during lithium charge/discharge cycles have been achieved at various current densities and areal capacities.

A Micelle Electrolyte Enabled by Fluorinated Ether Additives for Polysulfide Suppression and Li Metal Stabilization in Li-S Battery.

Project description:The Li-S battery is a promising next-generation technology due to its high theoretical energy density (2600 Wh kg-1) and low active material cost. However, poor cycling stability and coulombic efficiency caused by polysulfide dissolution have proven to be major obstacles for a practical Li-S battery implementation. In this work, we develop a novel strategy to suppress polysulfide dissolution using hydrofluoroethers (HFEs) with bi-functional, amphiphlic surfactant-like design: a polar lithiophilic "head" attached to a fluorinated lithiophobic "tail." A unique solvation mechanism is proposed for these solvents whereby dissociated lithium ions are readily coordinated with lithiophilic "head" to induce self-assembly into micelle-like complex structures. Complex formation is verified experimentally by changing the additive structure and concentration using small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). These HFE-based electrolytes are found to prevent polysulfide dissolution and to have excellent chemical compatibility with lithium metal: Li||Cu stripping/plating tests reveal high coulombic efficiency (>99.5%), modest polarization, and smooth surface morphology of the uniformly deposited lithium. Li-S cells are demonstrated with 1395 mAh g-1 initial capacity and 71.9% retention over 100 cycles at >99.5% efficiency-evidence that the micelle structure of the amphiphilic additives in HFEs can prohibit polysulfide dissolution while enabling facile Li+ transport and anode passivation.

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.

A hybrid polymer protective layer with uniform Li<sup>+</sup> flux and self-adaption enabling dendrite-free Li metal anodes.

Project description:Lithium (Li) metal is considered as an ideal negative electrode material for next-generation secondary batteries; however, the hideous dendrite growth and parasitic reactions hinder the practical applications of Li metal batteries. Herein, a hybrid polymer film composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyacrylic acid (PAA) is adopted as an artificial protective layer to inhibit the dendritic formation and side reactions in Li metal anodes. PVA with large quantities of polar functional groups can induce even distribution of Li ions (Li+). Alternatively, PAA can in situ react with Li metal to form highly elastic and ionic conducting lithium polyacrylic acid (LiPAA), thereby enabling tight contact and flexible self-adaption with Li metal anodes. Therefore, such a rationally designed functional composite layer, with good binding ability and relatively high Li+ conductivity, as well as excellent capability of homogenizing Li+ flow, accordingly enables Li metal anodes to reveal dendrite-free plating/stripping behaviours and minimum volume variation. As a result, the PVA-PAA modified Li metal anode delivered stable cycling for 700 and 250 h, respectively, at current densities of 1 and 3 mA cm-2 under an areal capacity of 1 mA h cm-2, in a carbonate ester-based electrolyte without any additive, exhibiting boosted cycling and rate performances. The Li anode with a functional PVA-PAA hybrid interlayer can maintain the dense and smooth texture without dendrite formation after long cycles. The full cell of Li|LiFeO4 with our modified Li anode and a cathode with a high areal capacity of 2.45 mA h cm-2 delivers, change to achieved a long-term lifespan of 180 cycles at 1.0 C, with a capacity retention of 96.7%. This work demonstrates a simple and effective strategy of designing multi-functional artificial protective layers, targeting dendrite-free Li anodes.

3D Porous Cu-Composites for Stable Li-Metal Battery Anodes.

Project description:Lithium (Li) metal is a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) because of its high theoretical specific capacity of 3860 mAh g-1 and the low potential of -3.04 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE). However, these anodes rely on repeated plating and stripping of Li, which leads to consumption of Li inventory and the growth of dendrites that can lead to self-discharge and safety issues. To address these issues, as well as problems related to the volume change of these anodes, a number of different porous conductive scaffolds have been reported to create high surface area electrode on which Li can be plated reliably. While impressive results have been reported in literature, current processes typically rely on either expensive or poorly scalable techniques. Herein, we report a scalable fabrication method to create robust 3D Cu anodes using a one-step electrodeposition process. The areal loading, pore structure, and electrode thickness can be tuned by changing the electrodeposition parameters, and we show how standard mechanical calendering provides a way to further optimize electrode volume, capacity, and cycling stability. Optimized electrodes achieve high Coulombic efficiencies (CEs) of 99% during 800 cycles in half cells at a current density of 0.5 mA cm-2 with a total capacity of 0.5 mAh cm-2. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest value ever reported for a host for Li-metal anodes using lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide LITFSI based electrolyte.

An ultrastable lithium metal anode enabled by designed metal fluoride spansules.

Project description:The lithium metal anode (LMA) is considered as a promising star for next-generation high-energy density batteries but is still hampered by the severe growth of uncontrollable lithium dendrites. Here, we design "spansules" made of NaMg(Mn)F3@C core@shell microstructures as the matrix for the LMA, which can offer a long-lasting release of functional ions into the electrolyte. By the assistance of cryogenic transmission electron microscopy, we reveal that an in situ-formed metal layer and a unique LiF-involved bilayer structure on the Li/electrolyte interface would be beneficial for effectively suppressing the growth of lithium dendrites. As a result, the spansule-modified anode affords a high Coulombic efficiency of 98% for over 1000 cycles at a current density of 2 mA cm-2, which is the most stable LMA reported so far. When coupling this anode with the Li[Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1]O2 cathode, the practical full cell further exhibits highly improved capacity retention after 500 cycles.

Highly Reversible Zn Metal Anodes Enabled by Increased Nucleation Overpotential.

Project description:Dendrite formation severely compromises further development of zinc ion batteries. Increasing the nucleation overpotential plays a crucial role in achieving uniform deposition of metal ions. However, this strategy has not yet attracted enough attention from researchers to our knowledge. Here, we propose that thermodynamic nucleation overpotential of Zn deposition can be boosted through complexing agent and select sodium L-tartrate (Na-L) as example. Theoretical and experimental characterization reveals L-tartrate anion can partially replace H2O in the solvation sheath of Zn2+, increasing de-solvation energy. Concurrently, the Na+ could absorb on the surface of Zn anode preferentially to inhibit the deposition of Zn2+ aggregation. In consequence, the overpotential of Zn deposition could increase from 32.2 to 45.1 mV with the help of Na-L. The Zn-Zn cell could achieve a Zn utilization rate of 80% at areal capacity of 20 mAh cm-2. Zn-LiMn2O4 full cell with Na-L additive delivers improved stability than that with blank electrolyte. This study also provides insight into the regulation of nucleation overpotential to achieve homogeneous Zn deposition.

Ultrahigh Areal Capacity Li Electrodeposition at Metal-Solid Electrolyte Interfaces under Minimal Stack Pressures Enabled by Interfacial Na-K Liquids.

Project description:The need for higher energy density rechargeable batteries has generated interest in metallic electrodes paired with solid electrolytes. However, impedance growth at the Li metal-solid electrolyte interface due to void formation during cycling at practical current densities and areal capacities, e.g., greater than 0.5 mA cm-2 and 1.5 mAh cm-2 respectively, remains a significant barrier. Here, we show that introducing a wetting interfacial film of Na-K liquid between the Li metal and the Li6.75La3Zr1.75Ta0.25O12 (LLZTO) solid electrolyte permits reversible stripping and plating of up to 150 μm of Li (30 mAh cm-2), approximately 10 times the areal capacity of today's lithium-ion batteries, at current densities above 0.5 mA cm-2 and stack pressures below 75 kPa, all with minimal changes in cell impedance. We further show that this increase in the accessible areal capacity at high stripping current densities is due to the presence of Na-K liquid at the Li stripping interface; this performance improvement is not enabled in the absence of the Na-K liquid. This design approach holds promise for overcoming interfacial stability issues that have heretofore limited the performance of solid-state metal batteries.
