Phase-Transition Interlayer Enables High-Performance Solid-State Sodium Batteries with Sulfide Solid Electrolyte
Abstract
All-solid-state sodium (Na) batteries (ASSSBs) using sulfide-based solid electrolytes (SEs) have attracted intensive attention due to their superior safety, high energy density and low cost. However, interfacial issue is one of the biggest challenges to achieve high-performance sulfide-based ASSSBs due to the serious reactions between active Na metal and sulfide SEs at the interface. To address the interfacial challenges, we propose in this paper a simple and efficient approach by introducing a polymer electrolyte as an interlayer to stabilize the interface. Na3SbS4 as a model sulfide SE is used to demonstrate the interlayer strategy to stabilize the interface by preventing the detrimental reactions and inhibiting Na dendrites. As a result, stable Na plating/stripping was observed in Na symmetric cells under the current density of 0.1 mA cm–2. Moreover, ASSSBs with Na metal and TiS2 electrode delivered long-term stability over 300 cycles remaining a specific capacity above 100 mAh g–1, and FeS2||Na cells exhibited an impressive specific capacity of up to 200 mAh g–1 after the 20th cycles. This work demonstrates an efficient strategy to address interfacial challenges between sulfide SEs and Na metal, which contributes to the development of ASSSBs in next-generation energy storage systems.
