摘要
Lithium-ion batteries with graphite anodes are approaching their theoretical energy density limits. Hybrid Li-ion/metal anodes integrate Li-ion intercalation/deintercalation and Li metal deposition/stripping storage mechanisms, achieving substantial improvements in energy density. However, the practical application of Li-ion/metal hybrid anodes is limited by dendrite growth and significant volume changes. In this work, a soluble Mg(TFSI)2 electrolyte additive is introduced to form lithiophilic Mg seeds on the Li metal surface, which covers the defect sites of graphite substrate and promotes uniform Li deposition, thus achieving a stable anode interface and extended cycle life. As a result, the hybrid anodes realize stable cycling performance for 160 cycles at a controlled capacity of 744 mAh g-1 with an average Coulombic efficiency of 98.71 %. When paired with LiFePO4 cathodes, the full batteries achieve an energy density of 318.9 Wh kg-1 and exhibit remarkable capacity retention of 85.8 % after 600 cycles. Therefore, this work reports a novel electrolyte optimization strategy to enhance the energy density and cycling stability of hybrid anodes for advanced energy storage. © 2025
