TL;DR: It is suggested that the formation of an elastic, thin and homogeneous cathode electrolyte interphase layer on active particles is a key for stable performance and the successful operation of metal fluorides at elevated temperatures opens a new avenue for their practical applications and future successful commercialization.

TL;DR: Free-standing, high-capacity Li2 S electrodes with capacity loadings in the range from 1.5 to 3.8 mA h cm(-2) are produced by using infiltration of active materials into porous carbonized biomass sheets to create electrodes for flexible lithium batteries with high specific energy.

TL;DR: In this article, conformal coatings of layered LiTiO2 may offer better protection against polysulfide dissolution and the shuttle effects and showed that even the mere presence of the electronically conductive layered oxides (LiMO2, M = metal) such as Li2O2 in the cathodes (e.g., as a component of the mix with Li2S) enhanced the cell rate and cycling stability dramatically.

TL;DR: In this paper, an electrolyte melt-infiltration approach is proposed to reduce manufacturing costs and improve volumetric energy density in all solid-state lithium-ion batteries, which can be used for electric vehicles and other applications.

TL;DR: In this article, a substantial boost in metal fluoride (MF) cathode stability by designing nanostructure with two layers of protective shells-one deposited ex situ and the other in situ-was demonstrated, achieving over 90% capacity retention after 300 charge-discharge cycles.
