Abstract: Presented are battery assemblies containing long prismatic cells with interleaved gas manifolds and electrical busbars, methods for making/using such battery assemblies, and vehicles equipped with such battery assemblies. A prismatic battery assembly includes multiple stacks of prismatic battery cells that are located inside of and extend longitudinally across a rigid and insulated assembly housing. Each battery cell includes a prism-shaped cell can that contains one or more electrochemical cells. Located at one or both lateral ends of each cell can are a cell vent and a pair of electrical terminals. Electrically connected to the battery cell terminals is an electrical busbar that is located inside the assembly housing, either between the cell stacks or laterally outboard of the cell stacks. Fluidly connected to the battery cell vents is a gas manifold that is located inside the assembly housing, either between the cell stacks or laterally outboard of the cell stacks.

Abstract: Methods for fabricating an anode, methods for fabricating a battery, and lithium batteries are disclosed. A method for fabricating an anode includes forming a melt comprising lithium and a surface tension reduction agent, wherein the surface tension reduction agent is selected from the group consisting of silver, tin, gallium, indium, zinc, and combinations thereof; and contacting an anode current collector with the melt, wherein a layer of the melt wets onto the anode current collector to form the anode as a lithium alloy.
