Abstract: | Lithium metal anodes involve solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) and various SEI-coupled interfaces, where Li deposition/dissolution and related processes take place. Important tasks of fundamental researches are to rationally designing and creating stable SEI and related interfaces based on in-depth understanding of the formation processes and the resultant interfacial/interphase structures. These issues fall into the category of and can be studied by taking the advantages of surface electrochemistry. In this review, we summarize recent advances in constructing SEI and lithiophilic interfaces via surface electrochemistry approaches as well as atomic force microscopic characterizations of morphology and nanomechanics for achieving long-term stability of Li anodes. Further fundamental research directions on Li metal anodes are also briefly discussed. |
