Abstract

All-solid-state batteries are intensively investigated, although their performance is not yet satisfactory for large-scale applications. In this context, the combination of Li10GeP2S12 solid electrolyte and LiNi1-x-yCoxMnyO2 positive electrode active materials is considered promising despite the yet unsatisfactory battery performance induced by the thermodynamically unstable electrode|electrolyte interface. Here, we report electrochemical and spectrometric studies to monitor the interface evolution during cycling and understand the reactivity and degradation kinetics. We found that the Wagner-type model for diffusion-controlled reactions describes the degradation kinetics very well, suggesting that electronic transport limits the growth of the degradation layer formed at the electrode|electrolyte interface. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the rate of interfacial degradation increases with the state of charge and the presence of two oxidation mechanisms at medium (3.7 V vs. Li+/Li 80%) triggers the structural instability and oxygen release at the positive electrode and leads to more severe degradation.
