The Salt Matters: Enhanced Reversibility of Li–O2 Batteries with a Li[(CF3SO2)(n‐C4F9SO2)N]‐Based Electrolyte

The safety hazards and cycle instability of lithium metal anodes (LMA) constitute significant barriers to progress in lithium metal batteries. This situation is worse in Li–O₂ batteries because the LMA is prone to be chemically attacked by O₂ shuttled from the cathode. Notwithstanding, efforts on LMA are much sparse than those on the cathode in the realm of Li–O₂ batteries. Here, a novel lithium salt of Li[(CF₃SO₂)(n‐C₄F₉SO₂)N] (LiTNFSI) is reported, which can effectively suppress the parasitic side reactions and dendrite growth of LMA during cycling and thereby significantly enhance the overall reversibility of Li–O₂ batteries. A variety of advanced research tools are employed to scrutinize the working principles of the LiTNFSI salt. It is revealed that a stable, uniform, and O₂‐resistive solid electrolyte interphase is formed on LMA, and hence the “cross‐talk” between the LMA and O₂ shuttled from the cathode is remarkably inhibited in LiTNFSI‐based Li–O₂ batteries.     

Dual‐Layered Film Protected Lithium Metal Anode to Enable Dendrite‐Free Lithium Deposition

Lithium metal batteries (such as lithium–sulfur, lithium–air, solid state batteries with lithium metal anode) are highly considered as promising candidates for next‐generation energy storage systems. However, the unstable interfaces between lithium anode and electrolyte definitely induce the undesired and uncontrollable growth of lithium dendrites, which results in the short‐circuit and thermal runaway of the rechargeable batteries. Herein, a dual‐layered film is built on a Li metal anode by the immersion of lithium plates into the fluoroethylene carbonate solvent. The ionic conductive film exhibits a compact dual‐layered feature with organic components (ROCO₂Li and ROLi) on the top and abundant inorganic components (Li₂CO₃ and LiF) in the bottom. The dual‐layered interface can protect the Li metal anode from the corrosion of electrolytes and regulate the uniform deposition of Li to achieve a dendrite‐free Li metal anode. This work demonstrates the concept of rational construction of dual‐layered structured interfaces for safe rechargeable batteries through facile surface modification of Li metal anodes. This not only is critically helpful to comprehensively understand the functional mechanism of fluoroethylene carbonate but also affords a facile and efficient method to protect Li metal anodes.     

High‐Voltage Lithium‐Metal Batteries Enabled by Localized High‐Concentration Electrolytes

Rechargeable lithium‐metal batteries (LMBs) are regarded as the “holy grail” of energy‐storage systems, but the electrolytes that are highly stable with both a lithium‐metal anode and high‐voltage cathodes still remain a great challenge. Here a novel “localized high‐concentration electrolyte” (HCE; 1.2 m lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in a mixture of dimethyl carbonate/bis(2,2,2‐trifluoroethyl) ether (1:2 by mol)) is reported that enables dendrite‐free cycling of lithium‐metal anodes with high Coulombic efficiency (99.5%) and excellent capacity retention (>80% after 700 cycles) of Li||LiNi_1/3Mn_1/3Co_1/3O₂ batteries. Unlike the HCEs reported before, the electrolyte reported in this work exhibits low concentration, low cost, low viscosity, improved conductivity, and good wettability that make LMBs closer to practical applications. The fundamental concept of “localized HCEs” developed in this work can also be applied to other battery systems, sensors, supercapacitors, and other electrochemical systems.     

Developing a “Water‐Defendable” and “Dendrite‐Free” Lithium‐Metal Anode Using a Simple and Promising GeCl4 Pretreatment Method

Lithium metal is an ultimate anode in “next‐generation” rechargeable batteries, such as Li–sulfur batteries and Li–air (Li–O₂) batteries. However, uncontrollable dendritic Li growth and water attack have prevented its practical applications, especially for open‐system Li–O₂ batteries. Here, it is reported that the issues can be addressed via the facile process of immersing the Li metal in organic GeCl₄–THF steam for several minutes before battery assembly. This creates a 1.5 µm thick protection layer composed of Ge, GeO_x, Li₂CO₃, LiOH, LiCl, and Li₂O on Li surface that allows stable cycling of Li electrodes both in Li‐symmetrical cells and Li–O₂ cells, especially in “moist” electrolytes (with 1000–10 000 ppm H₂O) and humid O₂ atmosphere (relative humidity (RH) of 45%). This work illustrates a simple and effective way for the unfettered development of Li‐metal‐based batteries.     

Colossal Granular Lithium Deposits Enabled by the Grain-Coarsening Effect for High-Efficiency Lithium Metal Full Batteries

The low Coulombic efficiency of the lithium metal anode is recognized as the real bottleneck to practical high-efficiency lithium metal batteries with limited Li excess. The grain size and microstructure of deposited lithium strongly influences the lithium plating/stripping efficiency. Here, a solubilizer-mediated carbonate electrolyte that can realize grain coarsening of lithium deposits (>20 µm in width) with oriented columnar morphology, which is in sharp contrast with conventional nanoscale dendrite-like lithium deposits in carbonate electrolytes, is reported. It exhibits improved Li Coulombic efficiency to 98.14% at a high capacity of 3 mAh cm⁻² over 150 cycles, because the colossal lithium deposition with minimal tortuosity can maintain the bulk Li with continuous electron conducting pathway during the stripping process, thus enabling efficient Li utilization. Li/NMC811 full batteries, composed of thin Li anode (45 µm) and a high-capacity NMC811 cathode (16.7 mg cm⁻²), can achieve at least 12 times longer lifespan (200 cycles).     

Dual‐Phase Single‐Ion Pathway Interfaces for Robust Lithium Metal in Working Batteries

The lithium (Li) metal anode is confronted by severe interfacial issues that strongly hinder its practical deployment. The unstable interfaces directly induce unfavorable low cycling efficiency, dendritic Li deposition, and even strong safety concerns. An advanced artificial protective layer with single‐ion pathways holds great promise for enabling a spatially homogeneous ionic and electric field distribution over Li metal surface, therefore well protecting the Li metal anode during long‐term working conditions. Herein, a robust dual‐phase artificial interface is constructed, where not only the single‐ion‐conducting nature, but also high mechanical rigidity and considerable deformability can be fulfilled simultaneously by the rational integration of a garnet Al‐doped Li_6.75La₃Zr_1.75Ta_0.25O₁₂‐based bottom layer and a lithiated Nafion top layer. The as‐constructed artificial solid electrolyte interphase is demonstrated to significantly stabilize the repeated cell charging/discharging process via regulating a facile Li‐ion transport and a compact Li plating behavior, hence contributing to a higher coulombic efficiency and a considerably enhanced cyclability of lithium metal batteries. This work highlights the significance of rational manipulation of the interfacial properties of a working Li metal anode and affords fresh insights into achieving dendrite‐free Li deposition behavior in a working battery.     

Effective Suppression of Lithium Dendrite Growth Using a Flexible Single‐Ion Conducting Polymer Electrolyte

A novel single‐ion conducting polymer electrolyte (SIPE) membrane with high lithium‐ion transference number, good mechanical strength, and excellent ionic conductivity is designed and synthesized by facile coupling of lithium bis(allylmalonato) borate (LiBAMB), pentaerythritol tetrakis (2‐mercaptoacetate) (PETMP) and 3,6‐dioxa‐1,8‐octanedithiol (DODT) in an electrospun poly(vinylidienefluoride) (PVDF) supporting membrane via a one‐step photoinitiated in situ thiol–ene click reaction. The structure‐optimized LiBAMB‐PETMP‐DODT (LPD)@PVDF SIPE shows an outstanding ionic conductivity of 1.32 × 10^?3 S cm^?1 at 25 °C, together with a high lithium‐ion transference number of 0.92 and wide electrochemical window up to 6.0 V. The SIPE exhibits high tensile strength of 7.2 MPa and elongation at break of 269%. Due to these superior performances, the SIPE can suppress lithium dendrite growth, which is confirmed by galvanostatic Li plating/stripping cycling test and analysis of morphology of Li metal electrode surface after cycling test. Li|LPD@PVDF|Li symmetric cell maintains an extremely stable and low overpotential without short circuiting over the 1050 h cycle. The Li|LPD@PVDF|LiFePO₄ cell shows excellent rate capacity and outstanding cycle performance compared to cells based on a conventional liquid electrolyte (LE) with Celgard separator. The facile approach of the SIPE provides an effective and promising electrolyte for safe, long‐life, and high‐rate lithium metal batteries.     

Nanostructured Metal–Organic Framework (MOF)‐Derived Solid Electrolytes Realizing Fast Lithium Ion Transportation Kinetics in Solid‐State Batteries

Solid‐state batteries are hindered from practical applications, largely due to the retardant ionic transportation kinetics in solid electrolytes (SEs) and across electrode/electrolyte interfaces. Taking advantage of nanostructured UIO/Li‐IL SEs, fast lithium ion transportation is achieved in the bulk and across the electrode/electrolyte interfaces; in UIO/Li‐IL SEs, Li‐containing ionic liquid (Li‐IL) is absorbed in Uio‐66 metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). The ionic conductivity of the UIO/Li‐IL (15/16) SE reaches 3.2 × 10^?4 S cm^?1 at 25 °C. Owing to the high surface tension of nanostructured UIO/Li‐IL SEs, the contact between electrodes and the SE is excellent; consequently, the interfacial resistances of Li/SE and LiFePO₄/SE at 60 °C are about 44 and 206 Ω cm², respectively. Moreover, a stable solid conductive layer is formed at the Li/SE interface, making the Li plating/stripping stable. Solid‐state batteries from the UIO/Li‐IL SEs show high discharge capacities and excellent retentions (≈130 mA h g^?1 with a retention of 100% after 100 cycles at 0.2 C; 119 mA h g^?1 with a retention of 94% after 380 cycles at 1 C). This new type of nanostructured UIO/Li‐IL SEs is very promising for solid‐state batteries, and will open up an avenue toward safe and long lifespan energy storage systems.     

Shielding Polysulfide Intermediates by an Organosulfur-Containing Solid Electrolyte Interphase on the Lithium Anode in Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

The lithium–sulfur (Li–S) battery is regarded as a promising high-energy-density battery system, in which the dissolution–precipitation redox reactions of the S cathode are critical. However, soluble Li polysulfides (LiPSs), as the indispensable intermediates, easily diffuse to the Li anode and react with the Li metal severely, thus depleting the active materials and inducing the rapid failure of the battery, especially under practical conditions. Herein, an organosulfur-containing solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is tailored for the stabilizaiton of the Li anode in Li–S batteries by employing 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)thiophenol as an electrolyte additive. The organosulfur-containing SEI protects the Li anode from the detrimental reactions with LiPSs and decreases its corrosion. Under practical conditions with a high-loading S cathode (4.5 mg_S cm⁻²), a low electrolyte/S ratio (5.0 µL mg_S⁻¹), and an ultrathin Li anode (50 µm), a Li–S battery delivers 82 cycles with an organosulfur-containing SEI in comparison to 42 cycles with a routine SEI. This work provokes the vital insights into the role of the organic components of SEI in the protection of the Li anode in practical Li–S batteries.     

Self‐Suppression of Lithium Dendrite in All‐Solid‐State Lithium Metal Batteries with Poly(vinylidene difluoride)‐Based Solid Electrolytes

Polymer‐based electrolytes have attracted ever‐increasing attention for all‐solid‐state lithium (Li) metal batteries due to their ionic conductivity, flexibility, and easy assembling into batteries, and are expected to overcome safety issues by replacing flammable liquid electrolytes. However, it is still a critical challenge to effectively block Li dendrite growth and improve the long‐term cycling stability of all‐solid‐state batteries with polymer electrolytes. Here, the interface between novel poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF)‐based solid electrolytes and the Li anode is explored via systematical experiments in combination with first‐principles calculations, and it is found that an in situ formed nanoscale interface layer with a stable and uniform mosaic structure can suppress Li dendrite growth. Unlike the typical short‐circuiting that often occurs in most studied poly(ethylene oxide) systems, this interface layer in the PVDF‐based system causes an open‐circuiting feature at high current density and thus avoids the risk of over‐current. The effective self‐suppression of the Li dendrite observed in the PVDF–LiN(SO₂F)₂ (LiFSI) system enables over 2000 h cycling of repeated Li plating–stripping at 0.1 mA cm^?2 and excellent cycling performance in an all‐solid‐state LiCoO₂||Li cell with almost no capacity fade after 200 cycles at 0.15 mA cm^?2 at 25 °C. These findings will promote the development of safe all‐solid‐state Li metal batteries.     

High-Safety and High-Energy-Density Lithium Metal Batteries in a Novel Ionic-Liquid Electrolyte

Rechargeable lithium metal batteries are next generation energy storage devices with high energy density, but face challenges in achieving high energy density, high safety, and long cycle life. Here, lithium metal batteries in a novel nonflammable ionic-liquid (IL) electrolyte composed of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium (EMIm) cations and high-concentration bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (FSI) anions, with sodium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (NaTFSI) as a key additive are reported. The Na ion participates in the formation of hybrid passivation interphases and contributes to dendrite-free Li deposition and reversible cathode electrochemistry. The electrolyte of low viscosity allows practically useful cathode mass loading up to ≈16 mg cm⁻². Li anodes paired with lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO₂) and lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide (LiNi_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1O₂, NCM 811) cathodes exhibit 99.6–99.9% Coulombic efficiencies, high discharge voltages up to 4.4 V, high specific capacity and energy density up to ≈199 mAh g⁻¹ and ≈765 Wh kg⁻¹ respectively, with impressive cycling performances over up to 1200 cycles. Highly stable passivation interphases formed on both electrodes in the novel IL electrolyte are the key to highly reversible lithium metal batteries, especially for Li–NMC 811 full batteries.     

Lithium–Graphite Paste: An Interface Compatible Anode for Solid‐State Batteries

All‐solid‐state batteries (ASSBs) with ceramic‐based solid‐state electrolytes (SSEs) enable high safety that is inaccessible with conventional lithium‐ion batteries. Lithium metal, the ultimate anode with the highest specific capacity, also becomes available with nonflammable SSEs in ASSBs, which offers promising energy density. The rapid development of ASSBs, however, is significantly hampered by the large interfacial resistance as a matched lithium/ceramic interface that is not easy to pursue. Here, a lithium–graphite (Li–C) composite anode is fabricated, which shows a dramatic modification in wettability with garnet SSE. An intimate Li–C/garnet interface is obtained by casting Li–C composite onto garnet‐type SSE, delivering an interfacial resistance as low as 11 Ω cm². As a comparison, pure Li/garnet interface gives a large resistance of 381 Ω cm². Such improvement can be ascribed to the experiment‐measured increased viscosity of Li–C composite and simulation‐verified limited interfacial reaction. The Li–C/garnet/Li–C symmetric cell exhibits stable plating/striping performance with small voltage hysteresis and endures a critical current density up to 1.0 mA cm^?2. The full cell paired with LiFePO₄ shows stable cycle performance, comparable to the cell with liquid electrolyte. The present work demonstrates a promising strategy to develop ceramic‐compatible lithium metal‐based anodes and hence low‐impedance ASSBs.     

A High‐Performance Li–O2 Battery with a Strongly Solvating Hexamethylphosphoramide Electrolyte and a LiPON‐Protected Lithium Anode

The aprotic Li–O₂ battery has attracted a great deal of interest because theoretically it can store more energy than today's Li‐ion batteries. However, current Li–O₂ batteries suffer from passivation/clogging of the cathode by discharged Li₂O₂, high charging voltage for its subsequent oxidation, and accumulation of side reaction products (particularly Li₂CO₃ and LiOH) upon cycling. Here, an advanced Li–O₂ battery with a hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) electrolyte is reported that can dissolve Li₂O₂, Li₂CO₃, and LiOH up to 0.35, 0.36, and 1.11 × 10^?3m , respectively, and a LiPON‐protected lithium anode that can be reversibly cycled in the HMPA electrolyte. Compared to the benchmark of ether‐based Li–O₂ batteries, improved capacity, rate capability, voltaic efficiency, and cycle life are achieved for the HMPA‐based Li–O₂ cells. More importantly, a combination of advanced research techniques provide compelling evidence that operation of the HMPA‐based Li–O₂ battery is backed by nearly reversible formation/decomposition of Li₂O₂ with negligible side reactions.     

Improved Cycling of Li||NMC811 Batteries under Practical Conditions by a Localized High-Concentration Electrolyte

Li||NMC811 battery, with lithium-metal (high specific capacity and low redox potential) as anode and LiNi_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1O₂ (NMC811) as cathode, has been widely accepted to be a good candidate as one of the high-energy-density batteries. However, its cyclability needs improvement to fulfill the requirement for its future commercial use, especially under practical conditions. Electrolyte plays a key role in improving the cycling performance of Li||NMC811 batteries, where a high voltage/electrochemical window and good stability with the electrodes of the electrolyte are required. Herein, a localized high-concentration electrolyte with an additive of lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is reported that improves the cycling performance of Li||NMC811 cells under crucial conditions with Li foil thickness of 50 µm, cathode areal loading of 4 mAh cm⁻², the areal capacity ratio between the negative and positive electrodes (N/P ratio) of 2.6 and the electrolyte/cell capacity ratio (E/C ratio) of 3.0 g (Ah)⁻¹. These cells can maintain 80% of the capacity after 195 cycles.     

Dendrite‐Free Lithium Deposition via Flexible‐Rigid Coupling Composite Network for LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4/Li Metal Batteries

Notorious lithium dendrite causes severe capacity fade and harsh safety issues of lithium metal batteries, which hinder the practical applications of lithium metal electrodes in higher energy rechargeable batteries. Here, a kind of 3D‐cross‐linked composite network is successfully employed as a flexible‐rigid coupling protective layer on a lithium metal electrode. During the plating/stripping process, the composite protective layer would enable uniform distribution of lithium ions in the adjacent regions of the lithium electrode, resulting in a dendrite‐free deposition at a current density of 2 mA cm^?2. The LiNi_0.5Mn_1.5O₄‐based lithium metal battery presents an excellent cycling stability at a voltage range of 3.5–5.0 V with the induction of 3D‐cross‐linked composite protective layer. From an industrial field application of view, thin lithium metal electrodes (40 µm, with 4 times excess lithium) can be used in LiNi_0.5Mn_1.5O₄ (with industrially significant loading of 18 mg cm^?2 and 2.6 mAh cm^?2)‐based lithium metal batteries, which reveals a promising opportunity for practical applicability in high energy lithium metal batteries.     

Anion‐Sorbent Composite Separators for High‐Rate Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Novel composite separators containing metal–organic‐framework (MOF) particles and poly(vinyl alcohol) are fabricated by the electrospinning process. The MOF particles containing opened metal sites can spontaneously adsorb anions while allowing effective transport of lithium ions in the electrolyte, leading to dramatically improved lithium‐ion transference number t_Li⁺ (up to 0.79) and lithium‐ion conductivity. Meanwhile, the incorporation of the MOF particles alleviates the decomposition of the electrolyte, enhances the electrode reaction kinetics, and reduces the interface resistance between the electrolyte and the electrodes. Implementation of such composite separators in conventional lithium‐ion batteries leads to significantly improved rate capability and cycling durability, offering a new prospective toward high‐performance lithium‐ion batteries.     

Recent Progress in the Design of Advanced Cathode Materials and Battery Models for High‐Performance Lithium‐X (X = O2, S,Se, Te,I2, Br2) Batteries

Recent advances and achievements in emerging Li‐X (X = O₂, S, Se, Te, I₂, Br₂) batteries with promising cathode materials open up new opportunities for the development of high‐performance lithium‐ion battery alternatives. In this review, we focus on an overview of recent important progress in the design of advanced cathode materials and battery models for developing high‐performance Li‐X (X = O₂, S, Se, Te, I₂, Br₂) batteries. We start with a brief introduction to explain why Li‐X batteries are important for future renewable energy devices. Then, we summarize the existing drawbacks, major progress and emerging challenges in the development of cathode materials for Li‐O₂ (S) batteries. In terms of the emerging Li‐X (Se, Te, I₂, Br₂) batteries, we systematically summarize their advantages/disadvantages and recent progress. Specifically, we review the electrochemical performance of Li‐Se (Te) batteries using carbonate‐/ether‐based electrolytes, made with different electrode fabrication techniques, and of Li‐I₂ (Br₂) batteries with various cell designs (e.g., dual electrolyte, all‐organic electrolyte, with/without cathode‐flow mode, and fuel cell/solar cell integration). Finally, the perspective on and challenges for the development of cathode materials for the promising Li‐X (X = O₂, S, Se, Te, I₂, Br₂) batteries is presented.     

The Synergetic Effect of Lithium Bisoxalatodifluorophosphate and Fluoroethylene Carbonate on Dendrite Suppression for Fast Charging Lithium Metal Batteries

Fluorinated solid‐electrolyte interphase (SEI) derived from fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) is particularly favored for dendrite suppression in lithium metal batteries because of the high Young's modulus (≈64.9 Gpa) and low electronic conductivity (10^?31 S cm^?1) of LiF. However, the transportation ability of Li⁺ in this fluorinated SEI under high current densities is limited by the low ionic conductivity of LiF (≈10^?12 S cm^?1). Herein, by rational design, 0.1 m lithium bisoxalatodifluorophosphate (LiDFBOP) is adopted to modify fluorinated SEI in FEC based electrolyte for fast charging lithium metal batteries. Benefiting from the synergetic effect of LiDFBOP and FEC, a fluorinated SEI rich in LiF and Li_xPO_yF_z species can be yielded, which can further improve the stability and ionic conductivity of SEI for fast Li⁺ transportation. Meanwhile, the average coulombic efficiency for Li plating/stripping is improved from 92.0% to 96.7%, thus promoting stable cycling of Li||Li symmetrical batteries with dendrite free morphologies, even at high current densities (3.0 mA cm^?2) and high plating/stripping capacities (3.0 mAh cm^?2). More attractively, in practical Li||LiNi_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2O₂ batteries, the cycling life at 1C and rate capacities at 6C are also significantly improved. Therefore, the synergetic effect of LiDFBOP and FEC provides great potential for achieving advanced lithium metal batteries with fast charging ability.     

Dendrite‐Free Lithium Deposition via a Superfilling Mechanism for High‐Performance Li‐Metal Batteries

Uncontrollable Li dendrite growth and low Coulombic efficiency severely hinder the application of lithium metal batteries. Although a lot of approaches have been developed to control Li deposition, most of them are based on inhibiting lithium deposition on protrusions, which can suppress Li dendrite growth at low current density, but is inefficient for practical battery applications, with high current density and large area capacity. Here, a novel leveling mechanism based on accelerating Li growth in concave fashion is proposed, which enables uniform and dendrite‐free Li plating by simply adding thiourea into the electrolyte. The small thiourea molecules can be absorbed on the Li metal surface and promote Li growth with a superfilling effect. With 0.02 m thiourea added in the electrolyte, Li | Li symmetrical cells can be cycled over 1000 cycles at 5.0 mA cm^?2, and a full cell with LiFePO₄ | Li configuration can even maintain 90% capacity after 650 cycles at 5.0 C. The superfilling effect is also verified by computational chemistry and numerical simulation, and can be expanded to a series of small chemicals using as electrolyte additives. It offers a new avenue to dendrite‐free lithium deposition and may also be expanded to other battery chemistries.     

An Electron/Ion Dual‐Conductive Alloy Framework for High‐Rate and High‐Capacity Solid‐State Lithium‐Metal Batteries

The solid‐state Li battery is a promising energy‐storage system that is both safe and features a high energy density. A main obstacle to its application is the poor interface contact between the solid electrodes and the ceramic electrolyte. Surface treatment methods have been proposed to improve the interface of the ceramic electrolytes, but they are generally limited to low‐capacity or short‐term cycling. Herein, an electron/ion dual‐conductive solid framework is proposed by partially dealloying the Li–Mg alloy anode on a garnet‐type solid‐state electrolyte. The Li–Mg alloy framework serves as a solid electron/ion dual‐conductive Li host during cell cycling, in which the Li metal can cycle as a Li‐rich or Li‐deficient alloy anode, free from interface deterioration or volume collapse. Thus, the capacity, current density, and cycle life of the solid Li anode are improved. The cycle capability of this solid anode is demonstrated by cycling for 500 h at 1 mA cm^?2, followed by another 500 h at 2 mA cm^?2 without short‐circuiting, realizing a record high cumulative capacity of 750 mA h cm^?2 for garnet‐type all‐solid‐state Li batteries. This alloy framework with electron/ion dual‐conductive pathways creates the possibility to realize high‐energy solid‐state Li batteries with extended lifespans.
