Differentiating and Quantifying Dead Lithium.

Abstract The current Highlight emphasizes the significance of a recently published Nature paper ( Nature 2019 , 572 , 511–515) and sheds light onto future research activities on Li anodes, for example, the solid electrolyte interphase Li, the dead Li, the morphology of the electrodeposited Li, as well as the correlation between the dead Li and battery performance degradation.
