METHODS OF FABRICATING POROUS CERAMIC ELECTRODES FOR SOLID STATE BATTERY APPLICATIONS

Compositions and methods for the fabrication of electrode and porous lithium-garnet electrolyte scaffolds for use in solid state batteries and other devices are provided. The methods produce porous structures using phase inversion or high shear compaction processes to fabricate a solid-state battery electrode material from LLZO electrolytes. Engineered electrode structures with a porous scaffold of solid electrolyte material provide lower interfacial resistances and a mechanical support for a thin solid electrode layer improving performance.
