High-quality solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layers can effectively suppress the growth of Li dendrites and improve the cycling stability of lithium metal batteries. Herein, 1-(6-bromohexanoyl)-3-butylurea is used to construct an organic/inorganic hybrid (designated as LiBr-HBU) SEI layer that features a uniform and compact structure. The LiBr-HBU SEI layer exhibits superior electrolyte wettability and air stability as well as strong attachment to Li foils.
