Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) with inorganic solid-state electrolytes suffer from lithium dendrites propagation. Here, the authors demonstrate the production of stable lab-scale LMBs using an Ag-coated Li6.4La3Zr1.7Ta0.3O12 inorganic solid electrolyte in combination with a silver-carbon interlayer.
