Nanoporous Hybrid Electrolytes for High‐Energy Batteries Based on Reactive Metal Anodes

Successful strategies for stabilizing electrodeposition of reactive metals, including lithium, sodium, and aluminum are a requirement for safe, high‐energy electrochemical storage technologies that utilize these metals as anodes. Unstable deposition produces high‐surface area dendritic structures at the anode/electrolyte interface, which causes premature cell failure by complex physical and chemical processes that have presented formidable...
