Even though ultra-fast Li + ion conductors based on sulfides such as LGPS and Li 6PS 5Cl have been developed in recent years, rather limited advancement has been made towards developing all-solid-state lithium ion batteries due to serious interface-related problems.
Even though ultra-fast Li + ion conductors based on sulfides such as LGPS and Li 6PS 5Cl have been developed in recent years, rather limited advancement has been made towards developing all-solid-state lithium ion batteries due to serious interface-related problems. Here in this work, we have carried out extensive fundamental modelling to formulate a system of materials based on hali-chalcogenide Li 6PA 5Cl argyrodites (A is the site for chalcogen species), so that materials with chemically and structurally compatible characteristics can be used as both a superb electrolyte and excellent buffer coatings over electrode surfaces. All solid-state-batteries (ASSBs) in the form of Li|Li 6PO 4SCl|Li 6PO 5Cl|Li 0.25MnO 2 are thus recommended, so that buffer coatings based on O-rich hali-chalcogenides help avoid interfacial reactions, owing to their high stability with respect to the cathodes and greatly enhanced chemical potential with respect to Li/Li +. Such batteries fundamentally have high mechanical and electrochemical stability, thus enabling high performance and great endurance to operational voltage.
