Halide-based Solid Electrolytes

Solid Electrolytes for Lithium-ion Batteries

Halide solid electrolytes (HSEs) have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional liquid electrolytes in lithium-ion batteries, and are being investigated for use in all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs). These solid materials are composed of halide ions (like fluoride, chloride, bromide, or iodide) arranged in a crystalline structure. Significant advancements have been made in recent years, with researchers developing new halide compositions and improving their properties for practical applications. They offer several key advantages, including:

  • High Ionic Conductivity – enabling faster charging and discharging rates
  • Wide Electrochemical Window – allows for the use of higher-voltage cathode materials, leading to increased energy density
  • Improved Safety – HSEs are solid and non-flammable, reducing the risk of battery fires and explosions
  • Enhanced Stability – HSEs are generally stable and resistant to degradation.

The potential benefits of HSEs in terms of performance, safety, and energy density make them a promising area of research for the future of lithium-ion battery technology.
