Rational Molecular Design of Aryl-Lithium Reagent Enables Precise Chemical Prelithiation of Graphite Anodes for Achieving Ideal 100% Initial Coulombic Efficiency

transport kinetics. Full cells incorporating prelithiated electrodes demonstrate marked improvements in ICE, capacity retention, and energy density. In addition, the universality of this potential-matching approach is demonstrated for hard carbon and silicon/carbon anodes. Our work advances the understanding of graphite intercalation chemistry and provides a scalable, customizable approach to precise prelithiation in LIBs.
