New design overcomes key barrier to all-solid-state lithium batteries

https://techxplore.com/news/2024-10-key-barrier-safer-efficient-ev.html

"safer, more efficient... overcoming resistance where ceramic electrolyte meets electrodes making battery less efficient/ reducing how much energydelivered... creating porous ceramic membrane instead of dense plate, filling it with small amount of polymer, allows lithium ions to move freely and eliminate the interfacial resistance between the solid electrolyte and the electrodes... improves the battery's performance but also creates a stable interface for high-voltage operation, one of the industry's key goals"
