Abstract(s)
Three types of next generation batteries are currently being envisaged among the international community: metal-air batteries, multivalent cation batteries
and all-solid-state batteries. These battery designs require high-performance, safe and cost effective electrolytes that are compatible with optimized electrode
materials. Solid electrolytes have not yet been extensively employed in commercial batteries as they suffer from poor ionic conduction at acceptable
temperatures and insufficient stability with respect to lithium-metal. Here we show a novel type of glasses, which evolve from an antiperovskite structure and
that show the highest ionic conductivity ever reported for the Li-ion (25 mS cm-1 at 25 °C). These glassy electrolytes for lithium batteries are inexpensive,
light, recyclable, non-flammable and non-toxic. Moreover, they present a wide electrochemical window (higher than 8 V) and thermal stability within the
application range of temperatures.
