Zusammenfassung: | All‐solid‐state Li‐metal battery (ASSLB) represents advantageous energy storage system for automotive applications. For ASSLB, inorganic solid electrolyte is essential in determining safety and cycling performance. However, significant challenges persist in practical construction of ASSLB with optimized electrolyte. Specifically, electrolyte's structural instability influencing its electrochemical performance remains critical issue within typical operating temperatures for ASSLB in electric vehicles. Herein, this challenge is fundamentally addressed by substituting trace amount of lithium with cadmium, which lacks crystal field stabilization energy. This strategy of atomic interaction modification has induced electrolyte's structural distortion and electronic alteration by deliberately introducing disorder at local lithium sites. Li symmetric cell with cadmium‐substituted antiperovskite solid electrolyte exhibits outstanding critical current density of 11.5 mA cm−2 (5.75 mAh cm−2) and excellent stability for 3000 h at 10.0 mA cm−2 (5.0 mAh cm−2). This study highlights explicit research direction for breakthrough of ASSLB, focusing on understanding how local distortion affects complex inorganic materials.
All‐solid‐state Li‐metal batteries (ASSLBs) offer enhanced safety and energy density over conventional batteries. However, intrinsic structural instability of solid electrolytes deters ASSLB performance at the typical operating temperatures of electric vehicles. Herein, the substantial merit of a stabilization strategy for the electrolytes is unveiled by modifying atomic interactions with a metal ion that lacks crystal field stabilization energy. |
