RESUMO

In Li metal batteries (LMBs), which boast the highest theoretical capacity, the chemical structure of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) serves as the key component that governs the growth of reactive Li. Various types of additives have been developed for electrolyte optimization, representing one of the most effective strategies to enhance the SEI properties for stable Li plating. However, as advanced electrolyte systems become more chemically complicated, the use of additives is empirically optimized. Indeed, their role in SEI formation and the resulting cycle life of LMBs are not well-understood. In this study, we employed cryogenic transmission electron microscopy combined with Raman spectroscopy, theoretical studies including molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and electrochemical measurements to explore the nanoscale architecture of SEI modified by the most representative additives, lithium nitrate (LiNO3) and vinylene carbonate (VC), applied in a localized high-concentration electrolyte. We found that LiNO3 and VC play distinct roles in forming the SEI, governing the solvation structure, and influencing the kinetics of electrochemical reduction. Their collaboration leads to the desired SEI, ensuring prolonged cycle performance for LMBs. Moreover, we propose mechanisms for different Li growth and cycling behaviors that are determined by the physicochemical properties of SEI, such as uniformity, elasticity, and ionic conductivity. Our findings provide critical insights into the appropriate use of additives, particularly regarding their chemical compatibility.
