Abstract:The lithium metal anode is intensively investigated because it considerably increases Li-battery energy density. However, the formation of dendritic/mossy Li-metal microstructures amplifies electrolyte decomposition and Li deactivation. Here we investigate the impact of a high-dielectric porous scaffold, aiming to eliminate the fundamental driver for dendritic/mossy Li-metal growth, the large electrical field gradients at inhomogeneities at the anode surface. In an anode-less (Li-metal free) high-dielectric po… Show more
