Abstract
Solid-state lithium batteries (SSBs) have the potential to achieve high energy and power densities due to the use of solid electrolytes (SEs) that are compatible with lithium metal or silicon-based anodes. However, fabrication of SEs with good ionic conductivity, mechanical strength, electrochemical stability, and interfacial contact with solid electrodes have been challenging. One promising approach is to combine ceramic lithium conductors that is expected to show a relatively high room-temperature Li-ion conductivity and a soft polymer matrix that facilitates mechanical integrity at the electrode-electrolyte interface during charge-discharge cycling. In this study, we report a scalable synthesis of Al0.25Li6.25La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) nanofibers and polyethylene oxide (PEO) composite SEs using roll-to-roll manufacturing. Our LLZO fibers showed 0.3 mS/cm conductivity at room temperature and the LLZO-PEO composites showed three times higher critical current density than a single PEO polymer electrolyte. Microstructural and electrochemical properties of the composite electrolytes will be discussed.
