Employing lithium-rich layered oxide (LLO) as the cathode of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) is highly desired for realizing high energy density. However, the poor kinetics of LLO, caused by its low electronic conductivity and significant oxygen-redox-induced structural degradation, has impeded its application in ASSBs. Here, the charge transfer kinetics of LLO is enhanced by constructing high-efficiency electron transport networks within solid-state electrodes, which considerably minimizes electron transfer resistance. In addition, an infusion-plus-coating strategy is introduced to stabilize the lattice oxygen of LLO, successfully suppressing the interfacial oxidation of solid electrolyte (Li InCl ) and structural degradation of LLO. As a result, LLO-based ASSBs exhibit a high discharge capacity of 230.7 mAh g at 0.1 C and ultra-long cycle stability over 400 cycles. This work provides an in-depth understanding of the kinetics of LLO in solid-state electrodes, and affords a practically feasible strategy to obtain high-energy-density ASSBs.

Elemental doping is widely used to improve the performance of cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries. However, macroscopic/statistical investigation on how doping sites are distributed in the material lattice, despite being a key prerequisite for understanding and manipulating the doping effect, has not been effectively established. Herein, to solve this predicament, a universal strategy is proposed to quantitatively identify the locations of Al and Mg dopants in lithium-rich layered oxides (LLOs).

Biomolecular interaction acts a pivotal part in understanding the mechanisms underlying the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Herein, we built a biosensing platform to explore the interaction between gelsolin (GSN) and different β-amyloid protein 1-42 (Aβ) species, including Aβ monomer (m-Aβ), Aβ oligomers with both low and high levels of aggregation (LLo-Aβ and HLo-Aβ) via dual polarization interferometry (DPI). Real-time molecular interaction process and kinetic analysis showed that m-Aβ had the strongest affinity and specificity with GSN compared with LLo-Aβ and HLo-Aβ.

Li-rich layered oxide (LLO) cathode materials with mixed cationic and anionic redox reactions display much higher specific capacity than other traditional layered oxide materials. However, the practical specific capacity of LLO during the first cycle in sulfide all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (ASSLBs) is extremely low. Herein, the capacity contribution of each redox reaction in LLO during the first charging process is qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by comprehensive electrochemical and structural measurements.

A Li-rich Mn-based layered oxide cathode (LLO) is one of the most promising cathode materials for achieving high-energy lithium-ion batteries. Nevertheless, the intrinsic problems including sluggish kinetics, oxygen evolution, and structural degradation lead to unsatisfactory performance in rate capability, initial Coulombic efficiency, and stability of LLO. Herein, different from the current typical surface modification, an interfacial optimization of primary particles is proposed to improve the simultaneous transport of ions and electrons.

Lithium-rich layered oxides (LLOs) are concerned as promising cathode materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries due to their high reversible capacities (larger than 250 mA h g ). However, LLOs suffer from critical drawbacks, such as irreversible oxygen release, structural degradation, and poor reaction kinetics, which hinder their commercialization. Herein, the local electronic structure is tuned to improve the capacity energy density retention and rate performance of LLOs via gradient Ta doping.
