Self‐Induced Dual‐Layered Solid Electrolyte Interphase with High Toughness and High Ionic Conductivity for Ultra‐Stable Lithium Metal Batteries

Lithium (Li) metal is considered as one of the most promising candidates of anode material for high-specific-energy batteries, while irreversible chemical reactions always occur on the Li surface to continuously consume active Li, electrolyte. Solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer has been regarded as the key component in protecting Li metal anode. Herein, a controllable dual-layered SEI for Li metal anode in a scalable, low-loss manner is constructed. The SEI is self-induced by the predeposited LiAlO
