About this Research Topic
As the electrochemical reaction of lithium metal proceeds at solid-liquid interface, the crucial point to solve problems in lithium metal is how to build up a perfect solid-liquid interface to promote the interfacial electrochemistry. Although lots of efforts have been placed on structural engineering of lithium metal, the intrinsic electrochemistry needs to be revealed. In this topic, we aim to collect many contributions covering all aspects of the interfacial electrochemistry of lithium metal, ranging from the interfacial and structural engineering of lithium metal, starting from practical battery applications, as well as the detailed electrochemical investigation of modified lithium metals.
Areas to be covered in this Research Topic may include, but are not limited to:
• New strategies on lithium metal modifications and protection;
• Interfacial electrochemistry between lithium metal and electrolyte (Experimental and theoretical);
• In-situ characterization of lithium metal anode;
• Practical applications of lithium metals in coin cells/pouch cells
Keywords: Lithium metal, interfacial investigation, structural engineering, electrochemistry, energy storage
