SEM
TEM
The graphite anode from E1Cs appears to be clean (a), and the SEI layer is rather uniform with a thickness of <2 nm (c). This is almost the same as the
SEI thickness generated at 0.3 V following the first charge, indicating a stable and uniform interphasial morphology even at high temperature for long-term cycling.
The SEI layer on the graphite tested in E1FEC contains many particles and the thickness is uneven (b), varying between 11 and 28 nm (d).

Reduction potentials: FEC ~0.95 V, EC 0.75 V, PC 0.7–0.5 V Cs+ induces slightly more EC decomposition.
Increasing Cs+ content or EC content shifts the peak at 0.75 V to 0.8 V and increases the peak intensity.
EC reduction enhanced by Cs+ is responsible for the SEI formation.8
Protection mechanism of Cs+-additive on graphite in PC-containing electrolytes
9
Technical Accomplishments
Cs+-(EC)m (m=1,2) solvates have planar structure, indicating possibly fast mobility and easy intercalation to graphite layers to decompose.
Cs+-(EC)m (m=1,2) solvates reduce earlier than Li+-(PC)n (n=3,4). Cs+ at 0.05 M has an effective redox potential of -3.103 V vs. SHE, lower
than that of Li+ at 1.0 M (-3.040 V vs. SHE). The formed SEI suppresses further solvent decomposition Thin SEI
layer.9
Effect of PC content on graphite in half cells using electrolytes with and without Cs+ additive
10
Technical Accomplishments
Cs+ has no effect in sole PC electrolyte. In EC-PC-EMC with 30 wt% EC and 20-
30% PC, Cs+ significantly suppresses PC co-intercalation.
Without Cs+ additive, the SEI is thick. Addition of Cs+ significantly reduces SEI
thickness.10
Effect of Cs+-additive on Li dendrite formation on graphite anode at various current densities
11
Technical Accomplishments
1.5 mAh/cm2 graphite electrode E-control has slightly higher
polarization than E20PC-Cs. For E-control, some Li dendrites
form at lithiation current density of 0.5 mA/cm2, and more Li dendrites form at higher current densities.
For E20PC-Cs, no Li dendrites are found at lithiation current densities of 0.2 and 0.5 mA/cm2, and much less Li dendrites are observed at current densities of 1.0 and 2.0 mA/cm2.
Cs+ additive can suppress Li dendrite formation on graphite anode surface even at relatively high lithiation current densities.

12
Technical Accomplishments
1C rate = 1.5 mA/cm2
E20PC-Cs shows better cycling stability at RT and 60°C and low-temperature discharge than E-control.
Both E20PC-Cs and E-control show nearly the same rate capability. E20PC-Cs can replace the conventional electrolyte for Li-ion batteries.12
Effect of discharge rate on electrochemical performances of Li||NMC cells at 30°C
13
Technical Accomplishments
NMC areal loading is 2.0 mAh/cm2 so 1C rate = 2.0 mA/cm2
Conventional 1.0 M LiPF6/EC-DMC (1:2 v/v) electrolyte Discharge rate has significant effect on cycling stability of Li metal cells. At the same charge rate, certain discharge rates (1C~2C or 2.0~4.0 mA/cm2) lead to
stable and long cycling performance of Li metal batteries.
13
Effect of discharge rate on Li anode morphology and cell impedance of Li||NMC cells after 150 cycles at 30°C
14
Technical Accomplishments
Lower discharge rate results in more serious corrosion to Li metal anode, thicker SEI and higher cell impedance.
Discharge at 1C and 2C leads to much less Li corrosion, nearly no change in Li thickness and low cell impedance.14
Ab initio MD simulations of electrolyte conditions at Li anode surface and schematic illustration of SEI evolution
15
Technical Accomplishments
Fast discharge results in high concentration of Li+ at Li surface which reduces free solvent molecules in contact with Li metal Alleviate parasitic reactions between Li and solvents and salt anion Form stable SEI and protect Li metal anode during long-term cycling.
At C/3 charge and 1C discharge rate (2 mA cm-2), Li||NMC cell has 81.6% capacity retention after 500 cycles and the Coulombic efficiency as high as 99.8%.

17
Technical Accomplishments
Bulk electrolyte resistance (Rb) for LiPF6 cell increases after 100 cycles while that for LiTFSI-LiBOB keeps stable The dual-salt forms compact SEI and prevent continuous electrolyte decomposition.
LiTFSI-LiBOB electrolyte leads to much smaller Rsfand Rct More ionic conductive SEI formed.

17O NMR characterization of Li+ and Cs+ solvation in electrolytes
27
Technical Accomplishments
Cs+ causes much less displacement in the C=O chemical shift (Δδ = 1.1 ppm) than does Li+(Δδ = 11.6 ppm).
Cs+ acts as a much weaker Lewis acid, and its solvation number with cyclic carbonate solvents should be lower than that of Li+,
Consistent with literature reports that the coordination number for Li+ in nonaqueous solvents is normally ∼4 and for Cs+ is <2.
Li+ is more like to be solvated by cyclic carbonate molecules than Cs+.

Literature reports that Li+ prefers to coordinate with PC over EC. Cs+ has the same trend.
In E1Cs, Cs+-(EC)1 of m/z 221 exists but no Cs+-(PC)1 and Cs+-(PC)2 are present.
PC molecules are scavenged by Li+coordination.
Cs+ is passively “preferably” solvated by EC molecules to for Cs+-(EC)1 and Cs+-(EC)2.

XPS analysis on cycled Li anode surfaces from Li||NMC cells discharged at two rates

Technical Accomplishments
The SEI formed at slow discharge rate (C/10) contains mainly lithium alkylcarbonate, Li2O, LiF and LiPFx.
The SEI formed at fast discharge rate (2C) mainly contains poly(ethylene carbonate) from EC polymerization and less C/F/P contents (i.e. less electrolyte decompositions.

Effect of PC content on graphite in half cells using electrolytes with Cs+ and various PC contents
31
Technical Accomplishments
20% PC in solvent mixture is the optimal content in EC-PC-EMC with 30 wt% EC.
E20PC-Cs allows graphite anode to show the best RT cycling in Li||graphite half cells.
E20PC-Cs (with 30EC-20PC-50EMC) leads graphite anode to cycle stably in Li||graphite half cells.
31
Effect of discharge rate on electrochemical performances of Li||NMC cells at other temperatures
32
Technical Accomplishments
Same as cycling at 30°C, discharge at 1C~2C rate also results in stable and long cycling performance of Li metal batteries at other temperatures from 10 to 60°C.
1C discharge rate is good for discharge at elevated temperatures. Increasing temperature leads to shorter cycle life due to increased side reactions.32
