AB - Inhibition of dendrite growth in all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) has long been a challenge to the field.In the present study, the conditions for dendrite growth for a similar but less mature technology, all-solid-statesodium batteries (ASSNBs), are investigated. By simply sticking sodium metal to Na3.4Zr2(SiO4)2.4(PO4)0.6(NZSP) ceramic pellets and without applying external pressure during operation, the critical current density ofNa/NZSP/Na symmetric ASSNBs reaches 9 mA cm 2 at 25 ◦C. The cells can be stably operated at an areal capacityof 5 mAh cm 2 (per half cycle, with 1.0 mA cm 2) at 25 ◦C for 300 h in a galvanostatic cycling measurementwithout any dendrite formation. The results outperform the existing ASSLBs and ASSNBs, and also gobeyond satisfying the requirements for practical applications. The influence of the high metal self-diffusioncoefficient on the dendritic plating/stripping is regarded as the most likely reason for the high dendrite toleranceof ASSNBs. A mathematical model based on Fick’s second law was applied as a first approximation toillustrate this influence. Full ASSNBs were fabricated with infiltrated Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP) as the cathode and canbe stably operated with a capacity of 0.60 mAh cm 2 at high rate of 0.5 mA cm 2 at room temperature.
