Abstract

Garnet-type Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) has high ionic conductivity and good compatibility with lithium metal. High-temperature processing has been proven an effective method to decrease the interface resistance of cathode|LLZO. However, its application is still hindered by the interlayer co-diffusion with the cathode and high sintering temperature (>1200 °C). In this work, a new garnet-type composite solid-state electrolyte (SSE) Li6.54La2.96Ba0.04Zr1.5Nb0.5O12-LiCoO2 (LLBZNO-LCO) is firstly proposed to improve the chemical stability and electrochemical properties of garnet with high-temperature processing. Small doses of LCO (3%) can significantly decrease the LCO|SSE interface resistance from 121.2 to 10.1 Ω cm2, while the sintering temperature of garnet-type LLBZNO decreases from 1230 to 1000 °C. The all-solid-state battery based on the sintered LLBZNO-LCO SSE exhibits excellent cycling stability. Our approach achieves an enhanced LCO|SSE interface and an improved sintering activity of garnet SSE, which provides a new strategy for optimizing the comprehensive performance of garnet SSE.
