Abstract
Cathode composites were fabricated using the nuclear growth (SEED) method. Compared to mortar mixing, the SEED method demonstrated higher cycle stability, with a 90LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2-10Li7P2S8I composite retaining 99.7% discharge capacity after six cycles compared to 66.1%. Cross-sectional SEM-EDX images suggest that the solid electrolyte was more uniformly distributed in the cathode composite prepared using the SEED method. This study opens up the potential for higher cathode-active material loading ratios.

High Ionic Conductivity with Improved Lithium Stability of CaS- and CaI 2-Doped Li 7P 3S 11 Solid Electrolytes Synthesized by Liquid-Phase Synthesis. ACS OMEGA 2022; 7:16561-16567.

Abstract
Li7P3S11 solid electrolytes (SEs) subjected to liquid-phase synthesis with CaS or CaI2 doping were investigated in terms of their ionic conductivity and stability toward lithium anodes. No peak shifts were observed in the XRD patterns of CaS- or CaI2-doped Li7P3S11, indicating that the doping element remained at the grain boundary. CaS- or CaI2-doped Li7P3S11 showed no internal short circuit, and the cycling continued, indicating that not only CaI2 including I- but also CaS could help increase the lithium stability. These results provide insights for the development of sulfide SEs for use in all-solid-state batteries in terms of their ionic conductivity and stability toward lithium anodes.

Abstract
In the critical area of sustainable energy storage, solid-state batteries have attracted considerable attention due to their potential safety, energy-density and cycle-life benefits. This Review describes recent progress in the fundamental understanding of inorganic solid electrolytes, which lie at the heart of the solid-state battery concept, by addressing key issues in the areas of multiscale ion transport, electrochemical and mechanical properties, and current processing routes. The main electrolyte-related challenges for practical solid-state devices include utilization of metal anodes, stabilization of interfaces and the maintenance of physical contact, the solutions to which hinge on gaining greater knowledge of the underlying properties of solid electrolyte materials.
