Co–Mo alloy oxide decorated carbon cloth as lithium host for dendrite-free lithium metal anode

“…S16† was drawn to provide a comprehensive comparison between this work and other reports with regard to cycling life for an Li anode. 26,30,36,51–60 Our composite anode compares favorably with other work on modified carbon hosts for anodes.…”

Homogeneous Li+flux realized by anin situ-formed Li–B alloy layer enabling the dendrite-free lithium metal anode

“…Among them, 3D metal current collectors with high electrical conductivity and mechanical properties, such as Cu and Ni foams, have been considered promising strategies for constructing stable LMAs. [29][30][31] However, the inherent lithiophobicity of these 3D scaffolds generally causes a high nucleation barrier, which will increase the possibility of Li dendrite formation, resulting in the limited cycle life of LMBs. 31 To this end, a series of surface modification strategies have been proposed to solve this dilemma of these 3D current collectors.…”

For instance, Yue et al, fabricated a CoO nanofiber decorated Ni foam framework to enhance the lithiophilicity of Ni foam and suppress the Li dendrite formation.…”

Fe3C Decorated Folic Acid-Derived Graphene-Like Carbon as Polysulfide Catalyst for High-Performance Lithium-Sulfur Battery

“…To solve the above problems, most research focused on the design of the functional sulfur host [6,7], appropriate separator modification [8,9], and electrolyte optimization [10,11]. Among them, modifying separator is a facile strategy to seek a good cycle lifespan of Li-S batteries, and the ideal separators can effectively fix the LiPSs on the side of the cathode to prevent them from reacting with the lithium anode [12,13]. Simultaneously, the functional layer can also serve as the second current collector to ensure the fast Disclaimer/Publisher's Note: The statements, opinions, and data contained in all publications are solely those of the individual author(s) and contributor(s) and not of MDPI and/or the editor(s).…”
