Solid-state batteries (ASSBs) represent a transformative advancement in energy storage, leveraging innovative inorganic solid electrolytes (ISEs) such as oxides and halides. These batteries are poised to enhance performance and safety, making them crucial for electric vehicles and renewable energy systems. Recent research highlights breakthroughs in ISEs, which serve not only as electrolytes but also enhance battery performance and safety through their roles as catholytes and interface layers.
A significant focus has been on the precise tuning of materials to achieve higher energy densities, longer life cycles, and superior safety compared to conventional liquid batteries. Despite the promise of ASSBs, challenges remain, particularly regarding the compatibility between ISEs and electrodes. Addressing these compatibility issues is essential for improving the efficiency and durability of solid-state batteries. The latest review emphasizes the need for continued innovation in material development and synthesis methodologies. It outlines the current state of research and acknowledges ongoing efforts to overcome existing obstacles in ASSB technology.
Published in the Journal of Materials Chemistry A, this comprehensive study underscores the transformative potential of solid-state batteries in revolutionizing energy storage and usage, paving the way for their practical application in various industries.
