Lithium metal is a promising anode material for the secondary lithium batteries due to its high specific capacity and low redox potential. However, these batteries cannot be commercially applied before severe issues can be well addressed such as the low stripping/plating capacity ratio and uncontrolled growth of dendrites of the lithium metal.
To meet the increasing demand for energy storage, it is urgent to develop high-voltage lithium-ion batteries. The electrolyte''s electrochemical window is a crucial factor that directly impacts its electrochemical performance at high-voltage. Currently, the most common high-voltage cathode material is LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO). This paper
