Abstract: A negative electrode for an electrochemical cell of a secondary lithium metal battery may comprise a negative electrode current collector and a three-dimensional columnar lithium metal layer formed on a surface of the current collector. The columnar lithium metal layer may comprise a plurality of lithium metal columns and may be formed on the current collector using an electrochemical deposition process. In such process, the current collector and a counter electrode may be at least partially submerged in a nonaqueous liquid electrolyte solution and an electrical potential may be established between the metal substrate and the counter electrode such that lithium ions in the electrolyte solution are reduced to metallic lithium and deposited on the surface of the current collector in the form of a three-dimensional columnar lithium metal layer. The electrolyte solution may comprise lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) in a solution of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) and dimethyldicarbonate (DMDC).
