“…Since interfacial resistance from poor contact (Figure 2D) is proven to be the main reason for the high internal resistance of solid state lithium batteries (Park et al, 2016; Han et al, 2017), quite a few approaches have been applied to reduce interfacial resistance, including co-sintering (Wakayama et al, 2016), in-situ synthesized electrolyte layer (Yoshima et al, 2016; Kazyak et al, 2017), interface buffer layers (Kato et al, 2014; Park et al, 2016), interface softening (Seino et al, 2011; Sakuda et al, 2012; Liu et al, 2016), surface coating (Han et al, 2017), and amorphous cathode (Matsuyama et al, 2016; Nagao et al, 2017) etc.…”
