The application of Li anodes is hindered by dendrite growth and side reactions between Li and electrolyte, despite its high capacity and low potential. A simple approach for this challenge is now demonstrated. In our strategy, the garnet-type Li La Zr Ta O (LLZTO)-based artificial solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) is anchored on Cu foam by sintering the Cu foam coated with LLZTO particles. The heat treatment leads to the interdiffusion of Cu and Ta O at the Cu/LLZTO interface, through which LLZTO layer is fixed on Cu foam. 3D structure lowers the current density, and meanwhile the SEI reduces the contact of Li and electrolyte. Furthermore, the anchoring construction can endure Li-deposition-induced volume change. Therefore, LLZTO-modified Cu foam shows much improved Li plating/stripping performance, including long lifespan (2400 h), high rate (maximum current density of 20 mA cm ), high areal capacity (8 mA h cm for 100 cycles), and high efficiency (over 98 %).

High-voltage lithium-metal batteries (HVLMBs) are appealing candidates for next-generation high-energy rechargeable batteries, but their practical applications are still limited by the severe capacity degradation, attributed to the poor interfacial stability and compatibility between the electrode and the electrolyte. In this work, a 2D conjugated phthalocyanine framework (CPF) containing single atoms (SAs) of cobalt (CoSAs-CPF) is developed as a novel artificial solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) in which a large amount of charge is transferred to the CPF skeleton due to the Lewis acid activity of the Co metal sites and the strong electron-absorbing property of the cyano group (-CN), greatly enhancing the adsorption of the Li and regulating the Li distribution toward dendrite-free LMBs, which are superior to most of the reported SEI membranes. As a result, the Li||Li symmetrical cell with CoSAs-CPF-modified Li anodes (CoSAs-CPF@Li) exhibits a low polarization with an area capacity of 1.

Owing to the nanoscale thickness, excellent mechanical and chemical stabilities, 2D materials including graphene and hexagonal boron nitride have emerged as promising artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) candidates for lithium metal batteries. However, whether the implementation of 2D materials is beneficial to electrochemical performance remains controversial, and the key to confining the electroplated Li beneath the 2D materials remains elusive. Here, a nanocrystalline graphene (NG) film is synthesized on high-carbon Cu and the Li plating/stripping behavior on Cu grown with different 2D materials is investigated.

Metallic lithium plays an important role in the development of next-generation lithium metal-based batteries. However, the uncontrolled growth of lithium dendrites limits the use of lithium metal as an anode. In this context, a stable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is crucial for regulating dendrite formation, stability, and cyclability of lithium metal anodes.

Sodium metal is heralded as a premier anode candidate poised to supplant lithium in next-generation rechargeable batteries due to its abundant availability, cost-effectiveness, and superior energy density. Due to the highly reactive nature of metallic sodium, an unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) forms spontaneously on the Na metal anode. This instability leads to non-uniform sodium deposition during cycling, promoting dendrite growth and the accumulation of "dead" sodium.
