lithium metal anodes with high rate capability
is one of the central aims of current battery research. Lithium metal
anodes are not only required for the development of innovative cell
concepts such as lithium–air or lithium–sulfur batteries,
they can also increase the energy density of batteries with intercalation-type
cathodes. The use of solid electrolyte separators is especially promising
to develop well-performing lithium metal anodes, because they can
act as a mechanical barrier to avoid unwanted dendritic growth of
lithium through the cell. However, inhomogeneous electrodeposition
and contact loss often hinder the application of a lithium metal anode
in solid-state batteries. In this review, we assess the physicochemical
concepts that describe the fundamental mechanisms governing lithium
metal anode performance in combination with inorganic solid electrolytes.
In particular, our discussion of kinetic rate limitations and morphological
stability intends to stimulate further progress in the field of lithium
metal anodes.
