A commonly used strategy to tackle the unstable interfacial problem between Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 (LATP) and lithium (Li) is to introduce an interlayer. However, this strategy has a limited effect on stabilizing LATP during long-term cycling or under high current density, which is due in part to the negative impact of its internal defects (e.g., gaps between grains (GBs)) that are usually neglected. Here, control experiments and theoretical calculations show clearly that the GBs of LATP have higher electronic conductivity, which significantly accelerates its side reactions with Li. Thus, a simple LiCl solution immersion method is demonstrated to modify the GBs and their electronic states, thereby stabilizing LATP. In addition to LiCl filling, composite solid polymer electrolyte (CSPE) interlayering is concurrently introduced at the Li/ LATP interface to realize the internal−external dual modifications for LATP. As a result, electron leakage in LATP can be strictly inhibited from its interior (by LiCl) and exterior (by CSPE), and such dual modifications can well protect the Li/LATP interface from side reactions and Li dendrite penetration. Notably, thus-modified Li symmetrical cells can achieve ultrastable cycling for more than 3500 h at 0.4 mA cm −2 and 1500 h at 0.6 mA cm −2 , among the best cycling performance to date.
