Local crystallization inside the polymer electrolyte for lithium metal batteries observed by operando nanofocus WAXS

Abstract The development of next-generation lithium-based batteries is accompanied by the intention to suppress the formation of dendritic lithium on the electrode, and is dominated by the picture that dendrites start to grow at the electrodes. Shifting from liquid to solid-state electrolytes, a hig...
