Will solid electrolytes enable lithium metal anodes in solid state batteries? — •Jürgen Janek, Dominik Weber, and Wolfgang Zeier — Institut für Physikalische Chemie, Justus Liebig-Universität, Gießen, Germany

In order to achieve solid state lithium batteries with higher energy densities [1], lithium metal anodes are one of the primary options. However, reversible and morphologically stable plating of thick lithium metal films is difficult, as void formation and dendrite growth may occur - leading to impedance growth and/or short-circuits. Ceramic electrolytes are considered as a potential solution to this problem. In this lecture the interface between solid electrolytes and lithium metal anodes will be discussed in depth, and the occurrence of both thermodynamic and kinetic instabilities will be highlighted. In particular, the existence of SEI ("solid electrolyte interphases"), forming between lithium metal and the solid electrolyte, will be demonstrated for a number of solid electrolytes. It will also be shown that the growth of these SEI layers follows a typical square-root law-type behavior in SEI formation in liquid electrolytes.
