Facile Magnetite Coating for Stable High-Voltage Cycling of Nickel-Rich Cathodes in Conventional Liquid and All-Solid-State Lithium-Ion Batteries.

The instability of Nickel (Ni)-rich cathodes at high voltage is a critical bottleneck toward developing superior lithium-ion batteries. This instability is driven by cathode-electrolyte side reactions, causing rapid degradation, and compromising the overall cycle life. In this study, a protective coating using dispersed "magnetite (FeO.
