abstract = {Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have gained increasing
importance in energy storage systems, driven by the growing
demands of grid storage, automotive, and portable consumer
applications. To meet the need for high energy density
batteries, one promising approach involves the utilization
of high capacity layered transition metal oxide cathodes,
such as nickel-rich LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NMC811), which can
deliver a high reversible specific capacity of over 180
mAh·g-1[1,2]. However, due to the structural and
interfacial instability[3], nickel-rich NMC cathode still
faces challenges in long-term galvanostatic cycling. For
these reasons, design of novel electrolyte formulations,
which enable formation of an effective cathode electrolyte
interphase (CEI), is highly desirable. Recent studies have
highlighted the cross-talk between the cathode and anode,
indicating that the evolution of the solid electrolyte
interphase (SEI) can impact the formation of the CEI[4].
Thus, establishing an effective SEI/CEI pair is essential
for achieving long-term cycling of nickel-rich NMC
cathode-based cells. Electrolyte optimization plays a
crucial role in facilitating the formation of a desirable
SEI/CEI pair, leading to an improved cell performance and
longevity. Lithium
(difluoromethanesulfonyl)(trifluoro-methanesulfonyl)imide
(LiDFTFSI) has proven to be promising in
solid-polymer-electrolyte batteries due to the good SEI/CEI
formation ability and suppressed Al-dissolution[5].
Additionally, LiDFTFSI exhibits also good compatibility with
Li-metal batteries[6], heralding promising applications in
Li-ion batteries. However, there is lack of systematic
research investigating the potential impact of LiDFTFSI on
the cathode as well as on resulting CEI formation and
dynamics.In this work, we demonstrated enhanced
galvanostatic cycling performance of NMC811||graphite cells
achieved by utilizing LiDFTFSI and lithium
hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) in a blended salt organic
carbonate-based electrolyte formulation. Comprehensive
electrochemical and post mortem analysis revealed that the
LiDFTFSI alone can effectively mitigate the structural
changes in the NMC811 electrode by facilitating the
formation of modified CEI. However, the continued growth of
an inhomogeneous CEI, caused by the cross-talk effect
between electrodes, adversely affected long-term cycling
stability. To address this, vinylene carbonate (VC) was
introduced to the electrolyte. Synergistic effect with
LiDFTFSI leads to the formation of effective and uniform SEI
and CEI. As a result, 720 charge/discharge cycles were
achieved in NMC811||graphite cells with LiDFTFSI and VC
containing electrolytes at 1C while maintaining $80\%$
state-of-health $(SOH80\%).References[1]$ R. Schmuch, R.
