Engineering Janus Interfaces of Ceramic Electrolyte via Distinct Functional Polymers for Stable High-Voltage Li-Metal Batteries
2019
The fast-ionic-conducting ceramic electrolyte is promising for next-generation high-energy-density Li-metal batteries, yet its application suffers from the high interfacial resistance and poor interfacial stability. In this study, the compatible solid-state electrolyte was designed by coating Li1.4Al0.4Ti1.6(PO4)3 (LATP) with polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) oppositely to satisfy deliberately the disparate interface demands. Wherein, the upper PAN constructs soft-contact with LiNi0.6Mn0.2Co0.2O2, and the lower PEO protects LATP from being reduced, guaranteeing high-voltage tolerance and improved stability toward Li-metal anode performed in one ceramic. Moreover, the core function of LATP is amplified to guide homogeneous ions distribution and hence suppresses the formation of a space-charge layer across interfaces, uncovered by the COMSOL Multiphysics concentration field simulation. Thus, such a bifunctional modified ceramic electrolyte integrates the respective superiority to render L...
