Zero-excess lithium (ZEL) or ‘anode-free’ batteries aim to minimize negative electrode material and address the challenges associated with handling thin lithium metal foils during fabrication. To date, most studies in the field of ZEL cells have primarily focused on lithium-ion chemistry, with consi...
