Abstract

Due to its very high theoretical specific capacity, lithium is still considered a promising anode material for innovative next-generation battery cells. The aim is to produce thin lithium metal anodes (LMAs) that are sufficient for the battery cell due to the lithium already present in the cathode and thus additionally increase the energy density of the cell. The production of thin lithium layers (
