Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium metal battery electrode materials, and particularly relates to an alloy current collector of a lithium metal battery and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium metal has extremely high mass specific energy and is the most important anode material for secondary high specific energy energy storage devices. However, the uncontrollable lithium dendrite greatly reduces the coulombic efficiency of the battery and increases the potential safety risk, so it is difficult to be commercialized. The generation of Li dendrites is ultimately due to the framework-free nature of Li metal and the surface inhomogeneity, resulting in huge volume changes and non-uniform Li deposition. [0003] In order to solve these problems, the volume change during repeated charge and discharge processes is currently alleviated by 3D framework structures, such as Zhiguang Peng et al. [...
