Abstract

Li metal is the ultimate anode material for next-generation high-energy-density rechargeable batteries. However, the uncontrollable growth of Li dendrites and low Coulombic efficiency (CE) prevent it from practical applications in Li metal batteries (LMBs). Here, a facile and low-cost strategy is developed to decorate a Cu current collector with a self-assembled γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-APS) film. The thin polymer film with nanopores promotes the formation of cobblestone-like Li deposition and suppresses Li-dendrite formation due to its low surface energy. The protecting layer not only increases the lithiophilicity of the Cu current collector but also alleviates the ambient corrosion and galvanic corrosion in practical use. Owing to these advantages, the half cell using γ-APS-Cu collectors exhibits a high average CE value of 99.2% for 100 cycles. The symmetric cell of γ-APS-Cu@Li shows an improved lifespan of 1400 h with a small voltage hysteresis of 12 mV at 0.5 mA cm –2 . The full cell assembled with LiFePO 4 (LFP) cathodes and γ-APS-Cu@Li anodes delivers a high capacity of 136 mAh g –1 after 600 cycles at 0.5C.
