Effect of surface carbonates on the cyclability of LiNbO₃-coated NCM622 in all-solid-state batteries with lithium thiophosphate electrolytes.

ABSTRACT: While still premature as an energy storage technology, bulk solid-state batteries are attracting much attention in the academic and industrial communities lately. In particular, layered lithium metal oxides and lithium thiophosphates hold promise as cathode materials and superionic solid electrolytes, respectively. However, interfacial side reactions between the individual components during battery operation usually result in accelerated performance degradation. Hence, effective surface coatings are required to mitigate or ideally prevent detrimental reactions from occurring and having an impact on the cyclability. In the present work, we examine how surface carbonates incorporated into the sol-gel-derived LiNbO₃ protective coating on NCM622 [Li_1+x(Ni_0.6Co<
