Abstract:
A sulfide solid electrolyte including a sulfide product prepared by mixing at least Li2S and P2S5 in an organic solvent, wherein the organic solvent includes a tetrahydrofuran compound optionally substituted with a C1-C6 hydrocarbon group or a C1-C6 hydrocarbon group including an ether group, or a C2-C7 non-cyclic ether compound.
Abstract:
A method of preparing a solid electrolyte and an all-solid battery including a solid electrolyte prepared by the method, the method including: contacting a first solvent and a first starting material comprising an alkali metal, sulfur, phosphorus, an element M, or a combination thereof to form a first solution; precipitating a first precursor from the first solution; contacting a second solvent, the first precursor, and a second starting material comprising an alkali metal, sulfur, phosphorus, an element M, or a combination thereof to form a second solution; precipitating a second precursor from the second solution; and heat treating the second precursor to prepare the solid electrolyte, wherein the element M comprises an element of Group 14 of the Periodic Table of the Elements, and the element M and the alkali metal in the first starting material and the second starting material are the same or different.
Abstract:
A lithium battery and a method of preparing the lithium battery, wherein the lithium battery includes: a cathode layer including a cathode active material including a core, and an ion conductive phosphate coating layer on a surface of the core; an anode layer; and a solid electrolyte layer that is disposed between the cathode layer and the anode layer, wherein the solid electrolyte layer includes a sulfide solid electrolyte.
