ZnO Quantum Dots as PEO‐Based Solid Electrolytes Fillers for Lithium Metal Batteries

PEO-based solid polymer electrolyte (PEO SPE) is regarded as one of the most promising solid electrolytes due to its exceptional flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and ease of integration. However, its commercialization is hindered by inadequate ionic conductivity and unstable interface. By incorporating proper ZnO quantum-dots (QDs) fillers with enhanced surface activity, the ion transport inner the PEO-based electrolyte can be improved along with enhanced REDOX kinetics at the Li/PEO interface. The ionic conductivity reaches 5.97×10
