Silicon (Si) is regarded as a prospective anode material for the next generation of highenergy density batteries, and yet silicon-based electrodes often face a multitude of challenges, such as significant volume change, structure collapse, unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), and electrochemical failures under high loading.
Silicon-based all-solid-state batteries offer high energy density and safety but face significant application challenges due to the requirement of high external pressure. In this study, a Li 21 Si 5 /Si–Li 21 Si 5 double-layered anode is developed for all-solid-state batteries operating free from external pressure.
A high-energy silicon solid-state battery exceeding 400 Wh kg⁻¹ is demonstrated using a 99.9 wt% micro-Si anode, a thin sulfide electrolyte, and high-loading NMC811 cathode. Optimized dry/wet processing and interface engineering enable excellent cell cycling stability.
