Lithiophilic Sites in Doped Graphene Guide Uniform Lithium Nucleation for Dendrite-Free Lithium Metal Anodes

Lithiophilic Sites in Doped Graphene Guide Uniform Lithium Nucleation for Dendrite-Free Lithium Metal Anodes

Lithium metal anodes are the most promising electrodes for next-generation high-energy-density batteries. In their Communication (http://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201702099), Q. Zhang and co-workers employed a nitrogen-doped graphene matrix (lotus leaves) with lithiophilic nucleation sites (sitting frogs) to guide Li (tadpoles) nucleation on an anode surface. The result is a uniform distribution of Li on the anode surface. These dendrite-free lithium-metal anodes exhibit an impressive electrochemical performance.
