Rechargeable metal-based batteries play a pivotal part in electrochemical energy storage, but the formation of metal dendrite on the surface of anode causes serious safety concerns and limited cycle life. Recently, electrodeposition, an ancient fabrication technique, was used to annihilate the dendrite via an epitaxial nucleation in batteries.¹ This innovation will accelerate the metal-based batteries from academia to industry.

电沉积加速金属基电池

可充电金属基电池在电化学能量存储中起着关键作用，但是在阳极表面上形成金属枝晶会引起严重的安全隐患和有限的循环寿命。最近，电沉积，一种古老的制造技术，被用于通过电池中的外延成核来消除枝晶。¹这项创新将使金属基电池从学术界加​​速发展为工业界。
