Developing a “Water‐Defendable” and “Dendrite‐Free” Lithium‐Metal Anode Using a Simple and Promising GeCl4 Pretreatment Method
Abstract
Lithium metal is an ultimate anode in “next‐generation” rechargeable batteries, such as Li–sulfur batteries and Li–air (Li–O 2) batteries. However, uncontrollable dendritic Li growth and water attack have prevented its practical applications, especially for open‐system Li–O 2 batteries. Here, it is reported that the issues can be addressed via the facile process of immersing the Li metal in organic GeCl 4–THF steam for several minutes before battery assembly. This creates a 1.5 µm thick protection layer composed of Ge, GeOx, Li 2 CO 3, LiOH, LiCl, and Li 2 O on Li surface that allows stable cycling of Li electrodes both in Li‐symmetrical cells and Li–O 2 cells, especially in “moist” electrolytes (with 1000–10 000 ppm H 2 O) and humid O 2 atmosphere (relative humidity (RH) of 45%). This work illustrates a simple and effective way for the unfettered development of Li‐metal‐based batteries.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
