On-surface lithium donor reaction enables decarbonated lithium garnets and compatible interfaces within cathodes

Formation of insulating lithium carbonate on surface of lithium garnets hinders their application as solid electrolyte in lithium ion batteries. Here the authors explore a scalable sintering approach to utilize the undesired Li2CO3 and improve the active material-electrolyte interface within cathode...
