Solid Electrolytes (General & Roadmap)¶
1. A Moisture-Stable High-Entropy Halide Electrolyte with Performance Recovery¶
Source: Mater. Horizons (10.1039/D6MH00223D) · 📅 2026-07-15 · ↗ Open paper
Demonstrates a high-entropy strategy for developing cost-reduced, moisture-resistant halide solid electrolytes (HSEs). The high-entropy approach stabilizes the structure against hydrolysis and enables performance recovery after moisture exposure — a critical practical advance for halide SE processing and handling.
Relevance to DENG.Group
Highly relevant to Yan Li and Mengke Li's halide electrolyte projects. The moisture stability angle addresses one of the key practical limitations of halide SEs. The high-entropy design strategy could inspire new directions.
2. Phase-Field Simulation Study on Growth and Dissolution of Lithium Dendrites¶
Source: Energy Storage Materials and Devices · 📅 2026-03-15 · ↗ Open paper
Establishes a multi-physics simulation model based on the phase-field method that simulates both growth and dissolution of lithium dendrites. The model captures dynamic evolution under varying current densities and stripping conditions.
Relevance to DENG.Group
Useful reference for Shoutong Jin — the growth-dissolution cycle is important for understanding cycling behavior and critical current density in solid-state batteries.
