Rationally Designed Li–Ag Alloy with In-Situ-Formed Solid Electrolyte Interphase for All-Solid-State Lithium Batteries

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) with sulfide-based solid electrolytes have attracted significant attention as promising energy storage devices, owing to their high energy density and enhanced safety. However, the combination of a lithium metal anode and a sulfide solid electrolyte results in performance degradation, owing to lithium dendrite growth and the side reactions of lithium metal with the solid electrolyte. To address these issues, a Ag-based Li alloy with a favorable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) was prepared using electrodeposition and applied to the ASSLB as an anode. The electrochemically formed SEI layer on the Li-Ag alloy primarily comprised LiF and Li
