Abstract

The invention discloses an ultrathin metal lithium electrode, a preparation method thereof, and application of the ultrathin metal lithium electrode as a primary lithium battery cathode. The ultrathin metal lithium electrode comprises a metal lithium layer and a current collector layer, the metal lithium layer is loaded on the surface of the current collector layer, the thickness of the metal lithium layer is between 1 [mu]m and 100 [mu]m, the metal lithium layer comprises metal lithium and additive components, and the additive components comprise an inorganic material of which the surface contains halogen element functional groups, and / or an inorganic material which can be compatible with liquid metal lithium or lithium alloy. The thickness of the metal lithium layer in the ultrathin metal lithium electrode is adjustable, a novel primary lithium battery with matched positive and negative electrode capacities can be manufactured, and due to the fact that the ultrathin metal lithium electrode does not contain excessive metal lithium, the ultrathin metal lithium electrode has better safety and higher energy density.
