Abstract
Issues with unstable SEI formation and uncontrollable lithium dendrite growth impede the practical use of lithium anode in high-energy batteries. Herein, a lithiophilic carbon channel on separator is designed to regulate lithium deposition behavior. The designed channel is formed by carbon nanosheet with cubic cavity (CNCC) prepared by hard template method. The CNCC with a large specific surface area and good electrolyte wettability can effectively reduce the local current density. Besides, the CNCC coated separator with high Young's modulus can mechanically inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites. Notably, CNCC coating can become lithiophilic during lithium plating/striping process, which is beneficial for homogeneous lithium deposition and low lithium nucleation overpotential. As a result, based on the CNCC coated separator, the symmetric Li|Li cell cycle over 2600h at 6mAcm-2 for 2mAhcm-2 , while the Li|Cu cell reaches average Coulombic efficiency of 98.5% at 2mAcm-2 for 2mAhcm-2 .
