All-solid-state lithium/sulfide batteries are considered as next-generation high-energy-density batteries with unrivaled safety. However, sulfide cathodes generally suffer from insulating properties and huge volume expansion in all-solid-state lithium batteries. Based on amorphous TiS4 (a-TiS4), a certain proportion of Super P is introduced to suppress the volume expansion and increase the electronic conductivity. Meanwhile, a Li7P3S11 solid electrolyte is in situ coated on the surface of 20% Super P/a-TiS4, and the close interfacial contact between the active material and the solid electrolyte constructs a favorable ionic conduction path. As a result, a Li/75% Li2S-24% P2S5-1% P2O5/Li10GeP2S12/20% Super P/a-TiS4@Li7P3S11 battery shows a high reversible capacity of 507.4 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g-1. Even the current density increases to 1.0 A g-1, and it can also provide a reversible capacity of 349.8 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles. These results demonstrate a promising 20% Super P/a-TiS4@Li7P3S11 cathode material with electronic/ionic conduction networks for all-solid-state lithium batteries.
