All-solid-state Li-S battery via spray deposition

锂- s电池实际应用的关键是在实际电流密度（10ma cm-2）和实际库仑效率（99.9%）下实现锂金属阳极的可逆无枝晶电镀和剥离。为了实现这一目标，已经提出了几种策略，从体电解质改性到SEI工程，再到原位和非原位表面改性。锂- s化学对锂金属施加了更严格的限制，必须保护锂金属免受多硫化物在硫阴极和锂金属阳极之间穿梭的影响，这阻碍了电池的可充电性，进一步降低了库仑效率/电池容量，并腐蚀了锂阳极。用固体电解质代替液体电解质可以解决所有这些问题。SOLBAT快速启动项目在了解固体电解质循环性差和枝晶生长的根本原因和实现薄膜陶瓷膜方面取得了很好的进展。特别是硫化物基固体电解质具有离子电导率，与液体电解质相当，它们更软，因此更容易加工，在规模上密度更大，它们的密度与固体电解质相当，特别是具有更高的离子电导率，所以，特别是，我们现在能够喷射沉积银柱石（Li6PS5Cl）是特别的。实验技术：四电极电化学、电化学阻抗谱、原位和非原位拉曼、XPS、AFM、TOF-SIMS和低剂量电镜技术将用于表征间相层及其生长。EPSRC的主题是能源。

A key to the practical implementation of the Li-S battery is enabling the reversible and dendrite-free plating and stripping of the Li-metal anode at practical current densities (> 10 mA cm-2) and practical coulombic efficiencies (>99.9%). Several strategies have been proposed to achieve this target, from bulk electrolyte modifications to SEI engineering to in-situ and ex-situ surface modification. The Li-S chemistry imposes even more severe constraints having to protect the Li-metal from polysulphides shuttling between the sulfur cathode and the Li-metal anode, hampering the rechargeability of the battery, further decreasing coulombic efficiency/cell capacity and corroding the Li anode. Replacing the liquid electrolyte with a solid could address all these concerns. The SOLBAT fast-start project has made a good progress in understanding the fundamental causes at the origin of the poor cyclability and dendrite growth in solid electrolytes and toward the realization of thin film ceramic membranes. Sulfide-based solid electrolytes in particular have ionic conductivities and comparable to liquid electrolytes, they are softer and therefore more easily processable and densified at scale and their densities are comparable with the in particular solid electrolytes have higher ionic conductivities, soterIn particular, we have are now able to spray deposit Argyrodites (Li6PS5Cl) are particular. Experimental techniques: 4-electrodes electrochemistry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, in-situ and ex-situ Raman, XPS, AFM, TOF-SIMS and low-dose electron microscopy techniques will be used to characterize the interphase layer and its growth.The EPSRC theme is Energy.
