The formation of lithium dendrites is suppressed using a LiAlGe(PO)-poly(ethylene oxide) (LAGP-PEO) composite solid electrolyte and a PEO (lithium bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide) [PEO (LiTFSI)]-modified lithium metal anode in all-solid-state lithium batteries. The effects on the anode performance based on the PEO content in the composite solid electrolyte and the molecular weight of PEO used to modify the Li anode are studied. The structure, surface morphology, and stability of the composite solid electrolyte are examined by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and electrochemical tests. Results show that the presence of a PEO-500000(LiTFSI) film on a Li anode results in good mechanical properties and satisfactory interface contact features. The film can also prevent Li from reacting with LAGP. Furthermore, the formation of lithium dendrites can be effectively inhibited as the composite solid electrolyte is combined with the PEO film on the Li anode. The ratio of PEO in the composite solid electrolyte can be reduced to a low level of 1 wt %. PEO remains stable even at a high potential of 5.12 V (vs Li/Li). The assembled Li-PEO (LiTFSI)/LAGP-PEO/LiMnFePO all-solid-state cell can deliver an initial discharge capacity of 160.8 mAh g and exhibit good cycling stability and rate performance at 50 °C.
使用 LiAlGe(PO)-聚(环氧乙烷)(LAGP-PEO)复合固体电解质和 PEO(双(三氟甲烷磺酰基)亚胺锂)[PEO(LiTFSI)]-修饰的锂金属阳极在全固态锂电池中抑制了锂枝晶的形成。研究了复合固体电解质中 PEO 含量和用于修饰 Li 阳极的 PEO 分子量对阳极性能的影响。通过 X 射线衍射光谱、扫描电子显微镜和电化学测试研究了复合固体电解质的结构、表面形貌和稳定性。结果表明,在 Li 阳极上存在 PEO-500000(LiTFSI)膜会导致良好的机械性能和令人满意的界面接触特性。该膜还可以防止 Li 与 LAGP 发生反应。此外,当复合固体电解质与 Li 阳极上的 PEO 膜结合时,可以有效地抑制锂枝晶的形成。复合固体电解质中 PEO 的比例可以降低到低至 1wt%的水平。即使在 5.12 V(相对于 Li/Li)的高电位下,PEO 仍然稳定。组装的 Li-PEO(LiTFSI)/LAGP-PEO/LiMnFePO 全固态电池可以提供 160.8 mAh g 的初始放电容量,并在 50°C 下表现出良好的循环稳定性和倍率性能。
