Perovskite-Based Solid-State Electrolytes for Next-Gen Batteries

Perovskite-type solid-state electrolytes (SSEs), such as Li3xLa2/3-xTiO3 (LLTO), have emerged as promising candidates for high-energy-density batteries due to their ionic conductivities exceeding 10^-3 S/cm at room temperature. Recent studies have shown that doping LLTO with Al or Nb can enhance conductivity by up to 50%, achieving values as high as 1.5 × 10^-3 S/cm. This improvement is attributed to optimized lattice parameters and reduced grain boundary resistance.

The interfacial stability between perovskite SSEs and lithium metal anodes has been a major challenge. Advanced surface modification techniques, such as atomic layer deposition (ALD) of Al2O3 layers as thin as 5 nm, have reduced interfacial resistance from >1000 Ω·cm^2 to <50 Ω·cm^2. This breakthrough enables stable cycling over 500 cycles at current densities of 1 mA/cm^2 without dendrite formation.

Scalable synthesis methods for perovskite SSEs have been developed using spray pyrolysis and sol-gel techniques, achieving production rates of up to 1 kg/h with particle sizes below 100 nm. These methods ensure uniform morphology and high purity (>99.9%), which are critical for large-scale battery manufacturing. Recent pilot-scale trials have demonstrated energy densities of >400 Wh/kg in full-cell configurations using LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 cathodes.

The integration of perovskite SSEs into flexible batteries has opened new possibilities for wearable electronics. Thin-film electrolytes with thicknesses below 20 µm exhibit mechanical flexibility (>5% strain) while maintaining ionic conductivities above 10^-4 S/cm. Prototype devices have shown capacity retention >90% after bending cycles exceeding 1000 times.
