Abstract

All-solid-state batteries are composed of cathode materials, solid electrolytes and lithium metal anodes. Lithium metal anodes are an important part of all-solid-state batteries. The successful application of lithium metal anode can not only improve the energy density and safety performance of the battery, but also reduce the manufacturing cost of the existing electrochemical system and completely replace the liquid lithium ion battery. However, in the actual application process, the lithium metal negative electrode still has the following difficult to solve problems: lithium dendrites, powdering, volume expansion and air stability. In response to the above problems, this article reviews some advanced lithium metal anode research strategies, gives its own solutions, and finally puts forward a prospect.

Key words
