Abstract

Dendritic growth of lithium upon charging is a leading failure mode of batteries with lithium metal anodes coupled with solid-state electrolytes. With the development of stabilizing interlayers between the Li metal anode and LLZO solid electrolyte, high critical current densities (>2.5 mA cm –2 ) can be realized. However, achieving similar current densities consistently across a large number of cells with thin LLZO membranes (
