Tailoring the Electrode‐Electrolyte Interface for Reliable Operation of All‐Climate 4.8 V Li||NCM811 Batteries

Combining high-voltage nickel-rich cathodes with lithium metal anodes is among the most promising approaches for achieving high-energy-density lithium batteries. However, most current electrolytes fail to simultaneously satisfy the compatibility requirements for the lithium metal anode and the tolerance for the ultra-high voltage NCM811 cathode. Here, we have designed an ultra-oxidation-resistant electrolyte by meticulously adjusting the composition of fluorinated carbonates. Our study reveals that a solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) rich in LiF and Li
