Abstract:

This bimonthly review paper highlights 100 recent published papers on lithium batteries. We searched the Web of Science and found 7512 papers online from Feb. 1, 2024 to Mar. 31, 2024. 100 of them were selected to be highlighted. The selected papers of cathode materials focus on high-nickel ternary layered oxides and Li-rich oxides, and the effects of doping, interface modifications and structural evolution with prolonged cycling are investigated. For anode materials, silicon-based composite materials are improved by modification of the micro-structure and optimized the component and binder for liquid and solid battery applications. Efforts have also been devoted to designing artificial interface and controlling the inhomogeneous plating of lithium metal anode. The relation of structure design and performances of oxide-based, sulfide-based and polymer-based solid-state electrolytes has been extensively studied, while different combination of solvents, lithium salts, and functional additives are investigated for the liquid electrolytes. For solid-state batteries, the surface coating of the cathode, the design of composite cathode, the interface to anode/electrolyte interface and 3D anode have been widely studied. Works on lithium-sulfur batteries are mainly focused on the structural design of the cathode and the development of functional coating and electrolytes, and solid state lithium-sulfur battery has also drawn large attentions. New binders and the dry electrode coating technology are developed for Li-ion batteries. Coating process, electrode and battery design are widely studied for solid-state batteries, and solid state Li-S batterydraws large attentions. There are a few papers for the production technologies of electrodes, characterization techniques of structural phase transition of the cathode materials and the composition of SEI, while theoretical papers are mainly related to the study of interfacial ion transport and the optimization of electrode structure.
