The invention provides a
sulfide electrolyte material and a preparation method and application thereof, and the preparation method comprises the following steps: mixing
lithium sulfide,
phosphorus pentasulfide,
rare earth sulfide and a
solvent, and reacting to obtain a sulfide
electrolyte precursor; and carrying out pressing treatment on the sulfide
electrolyte precursor, and carrying out low-temperature
sintering on the material obtained by pressing at 250-500 DEG C to obtain the sulfide electrolyte material. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the synthesis of the
rare earth element doped sulfide precursor is realized by adopting a pure
liquid phase method, particles are dispersed in a
liquid phase solvent, and the particle uniformity and
dispersity of the obtained finished product are obviously superior to those of a
solid phase method. After the precursor obtained by the
liquid phase method is pressed and sintered at low temperature, the
crystal boundary between crystals of the electrolyte material is relatively small, the energy barrier of
ion transmission is remarkably enhanced, the
conductivity of the electrolyte is optimized, and the long-cycle stability of the all-
solid-state battery is improved.
