In the Introduction,

“Furthermore, it suggests that the nature of LGPS in conventional carbon-containing composite cathodes would vary with electrochemical cycling, which has not been considered in the evaluation of the cathode performance. In this respect, here we carefully study the effect of carbon additives in ASSBs based on LGPS electrolyte. It is found that the inclusion of carbon conductive agents regardless of their physical differences such as carbon nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes in composite cathode results in the inferior performance of the cathode in comparison to that without the carbon additives.”

“Furthermore, it suggests that the nature of LGPS in conventional carbon-containing composite cathodes would vary with electrochemical cycling, which has not been considered in the evaluation of the cathode performance. Very recently, such problem on the cathode interface in practical ASSB cell configuration has been reported by Zhang et al., who showed the adverse effect of carbon inclusion in ASSBs[1]. In this respect, here we carefully study the effect of carbon additives in ASSBs based on LGPS electrolyte. It is found that the inclusion of carbon conductive agents regardless of their physical differences such as carbon nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes in composite cathode results in the inferior performance of the cathode in comparison to that without the carbon additives.”
