The interface is a critical factor of electrochemical performance for all‐solid‐state batteries (ASSBs). Comprehending the composition, structure, morphology, and their evolution in the interface during charge/discharge cycling is greatly important for the development and practical application of ASSBs. The characterization techniques are very crucial and powerful for investigating the interface properties of ASSBs. This review briefly describes how the interface is generated in ASSBs, and then emphatically summarizes some important advanced techniques used to characterize the interface in ASSBs. The principle, advantage, and application of the techniques in the interface investigation are systematically discussed. This review provides fundamental insights and perspectives for developing the characterization techniques to deeply understand the interfacial behaviors of ASSBs, which is valuable for accelerating the commercialization of ASSBs used in electronic devices, electric vehicles, and large‐scale energy storage.

The objective of the present study was to construct an alginate (AG)-based phase-changeable and injectable hydrogel for imaging-guided tumor hyperthermia and chemotherapy. Based on the binding between the α-l-guluronic blocks of AG and calcium ions, the AG/MoS/BiS-poly(ethylene glycol) (MBP)/doxorubicin (DOX) solution formed a cross-linked hydrogel to simultaneously encapsulate MBP nanosheets and DOX within the hydrogel matrix. The in situ formed hydrogel can act as a reservoir to control the release of entrapped drug molecules, and the doped MBP nanosheets and DOX can realize computed tomography/photoacoustic dual-modal imaging-guided in vivo tumor photothermal therapy and chemotherapy, respectively. The AG/MBP/DOX hydrogel exhibited excellent photothermal conversion properties with mass extinction coefficient of 45.1 L/g/cm and photothermal conversion efficiency of 42.7%. Besides, the heat from the photothermal transformation of MBP can promote drug diffusion from the hydrogel to realize on-demand drug release. Additionally, the hydrogel system can restrain MBP and DOX from entering into the blood stream during therapy, and therefore substantially decrease their side effects on normal organs. More importantly, the drug loading of the AG hydrogel was general and can be extended to the encapsulation of antibiotics, such as amoxicillin, for the prevention of postoperative infections.
