Lithium–silver alloys in anode-less batteries: comparison in liquid- and solid-electrolytes

Abstract

This study comprehensively investigates the phase evolution of silver–carbon composite (Ag/C) layers in anode-less batteries with both liquid and solid electrolytes. The results of in situ X-ray diffraction and cross-sectional electron microscopy analyses reveal that the alloying reaction of Ag and Li is more homogeneous in solid–electrolyte-based cells compared to liquid-electrolyte-based cells. This homogeneity is attributed to diffusional Coble creep across the heterogeneous interfaces of Ag/C layers and solid electrolytes.
