The rock-salt phase (RSP) formed on the surface of Ni-rich layered cathodes in liquid-electrolyte lithium-ion batteries is conceived to be electrochemically "dead". Here we show massive RSP forms in the interior of LiNixMnyCo(1−x-y)O2 (NMC) crystals in sulfide based all solid state batteries (ASSBs), but the RSP remains electrochemically active even after long cycles. The RSP and the layered structure constitute a two-phase mixture, a material architecture that is distinctly different from the RSP in liquid electrolytes. The tensioned layered phase affords an effective percolation channel into which lithium is squeezed out of the RSPs by compressive stress, rendering the RSPs electrochemically active. Consequently, the ASSBs with predominant RSP in the NMC cathode deliver remarkable long cycle life of 4000 cycles at high areal capacity of 4.3 mAh/cm2. Our study unveils distinct mechano-electrochemistry of RSPs in ASSBs that can be harnessed to enable high energy density and durable ASSBs.< Réduire
