摘要
Through tailoring interfacial chemistry,electrolyte engineering is a facile yet effective strategy for highperformance lithium(Li)metal batteries,where the solvation structure is critical for interfacial chemistry.Herein,the effect of electrostatic interaction on regulating an anion-rich solvation is firstly proposed.The moderate electrostatic interaction between anion and solvent promotes anion to enter the solvation sheath,inducing stable solid electrolyte interphase with fast Li+transport kinetics on the anode.This asdesigned electrolyte exhibits excellent compatibility with Li metal anode(a Li deposition/stripping Coulombic efficiency of 99.3%)and high-voltage LiCoO_(2) cathode.Consequently,the 50μm-thin Li||high-loading LiCoO_(2) cells achieve significantly improved cycling performance under stringent conditions of high voltage over 4.5 V,lean electrolyte,and wide temperature range(-20 to 60℃).This work inspires a groundbreaking strategy to manipulate the solvation structure through regulating the interactions of solvent and anion for highperformance Li metal batteries.
