To enable the practical application of lithium metal batteries, it is crucial to address the challenges of dendrite growth and volume expansion in lithium metal anodes. A 3D framework offers an effective solution to regulate the lithium plating/stripping process. In this work, we present a 3D mixed ion-electron conducting (MIEC) framework as a lithium metal anode, achieved by conformally coating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) onto LiLaTiO (LLTO) particles. The synergy between LLTO's lithiophilicity and CNTs' high electron conductivity ensures uniform lithium deposition and mitigates volume changes, thereby enhancing the electrochemical performance. As a result, the LLTO@CNT anode demonstrates a high coulombic efficiency of 99.24% for 400 cycles at 1 mA cm in a half-cell, along with excellent cycling stability and prolonged lifespan.

Despite the ultrahigh theoretical energy density and cost-effectiveness, aprotic lithium-oxygen (Li-O) batteries suffer from slow oxygen redox kinetics at cathodes and large voltage hysteresis. Here, we well-design ultrafine Co nanoparticles supported by N-doped mesoporous hollow carbon nanospindles (Co@HCNs) to serve as efficient electrocatalysts for Li-O battery. Benefiting from strong metal-support interactions, the obtained Co@HCNs manifest high affinity for the LiO intermediate, promoting formation of ultrathin nanosheet-like LiO with low-impedance contact interface on the Co@HCNs cathode surface, which facilitates the reversible decomposition upon charging.

The utilization of water electrolytes in zinc-ion batteries offers the advantages of enhanced safety, reduced cost, and improved environmental friendliness, rendering them an optimal choice for replacing lithium-ion batteries. Nevertheless, the conventional zinc sulfate electrolyte fails to meet stringent requirements. Therefore, developing electrolytes is crucial for addressing the low cycle life of zinc ions and suppressing the growth of zinc dendrites.

Direct recycling technology can effectively solve the environmental pollution and resource waste problems caused by spent lithium-ion batteries. However, the repaired LiNiCoMnO (NCM) black mass by direct recycling technology shows an unsatisfactory cycle life, which is attributed to the formation of spinel/rock salt phases and rotational stacking faults caused by the in-plane and out-of-plane migration of transition metal (TM) atoms during charge/discharge. Herein, local lattice stress is introduced into the regenerated cathode during repair.

Featured with the highest possible energy density, anode-free lithium-metal batteries (AFBs) are still challenged by the fast capacity decay, especially for the ones operated in commercial carbonate electrolytes, which can be ascribed to the poor stability and continual broken/formation of the solid-electrolyte interface (SEI) formed on the anode side. Here, sacrificial additives, which have low solubility in carbonate electrolytes and can be continuously released, are proposed for AFBs. The sacrificial and continuously-releasing feature gifts the additives the capability to form and heal the SEI during the long-term cycling process, thus minimizing the loss of active Li and enabling the AFLMBs with high loading LiNiCoMnO (21.
