Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
The cathode-electrolyte interphase plays a pivotal role in determining the usable capacity and cycling stability of electrochemical cells, yet it is overshadowed by its counterpart, the solid-electrolyte interphase. This is primarily due to the prevalence of side reactions, particularly at low potentials on the negative electrode, especially in state-of-the-art Li-ion batteries where the charge cutoff voltage is limited. However, as the quest for high-energy battery technologies intensifies, there is a pressing need to advance the study of cathode-electrolyte interphase properties. Here, we present a comprehensive approach to analyse the cathode-electrolyte interphase in battery systems. We underscore the importance of employing model cathode materials and coin cell protocols to establish baseline performance. Additionally, we delve into the factors behind the inconsistent and occasionally controversial findings related to the cathode-electrolyte interphase. We also address the challenges and opportunities in characterizing and simulating the cathode-electrolyte interphase, offering potential solutions to enhance its relevance to real-world applications. The cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) is vital for battery cell capacity and stability but receives less attention than the solid-electrolyte interphase. The authors review CEI properties, emphasize using model cathode materials and coin cell protocols, and address challenges and opportunities in characterizing and simulating CEI for real-world applications.
