Abstract

A battery comprising a lithium metal anode; a solid electrolyte; a cathode; and at least one interface layer between a surface of the cathode and a surface of the solid electrolyte, the interface layer formed of a printable lithium composition comprised of lithium metal powder, a polymer binder compatible with the lithium metal powder, a rheology modifier compatible with the lithium metal powder, and a solvent compatible with the lithium metal powder and with the polymer binder, wherein the interface layer improves the uniformity of the surface of the solid electrolyte thereby optimizing contact between the surface of the cathode and the surface of the solid electrolyte for better battery performance.
