研 究 背 景
全固态锂金属电池(ASSLMBs)因兼具高能量密度与本征安全性,被视为下一代储能技术的核心方向。其中,硫化物电解质因其高离子电导率和良好的机械性能而受到广泛关注。然而,硫化物电解质与锂金属负极之间的自发化学反应性会导致界面处生成混合离子-电子导电界面(Li2S、Li3P等),诱发持续的电解质分解和活性锂消耗并带来锂枝晶生长的隐患,降低电池的循环性能。传统改性策略(如人工界面层、锂合金化)虽可延缓副反应,却未能解决PS₄结构单元本征不稳定性这一根源问题——其脆弱的P-S共价键易被富电子的锂原子攻击并生成Li₃P/Li₂S。通过电子结构工程精准调控PS₄单元的轨道杂化状态(如P 3p-S 3p轨道能级重构),可从根本上抑制电子转移驱动的界面降解,为突破ASSLMBs商业化困境提供新范式。
