Constructing a High-Energy and Durable Single-Crystal NCM811 Cathode for All-Solid-State Batteries by a Surface Engineering Strategy

the atomic layer deposition technique combined with optimized post-annealing treatment. The working mechanism is verified as the nano-LNO layer effectively suppresses the decomposition of sulfide SSE and stabilizes the cathode/SSE interface. The post-annealing of the LNO layer at 400 °C improves the coating uniformity, eliminates the residual lithium salts, and leads to small impedance increasing and less electrochemical polarization during cycling compared with pristine materials. This work highlights the critical role of the post-annealed nano-LNO layer in the applications of a high-nickel cathode and offers some new insights into the designing of high-performance cathode materials for ASSBs.
