Abstract

Abstract : Sulfurized alcohol composite (SAC), a new type of organosulfur material, is applied to an all‐solid‐state cell with a sulfur‐based solid electrolyte (SE), Li3 PS4 . The cell shows high specific capacity (600–800 mAh g −1 ), and the initial coulomb efficiency is improved by mechanically milling the cathode layer (SAC + SE). The improvement is attributed to the partial lithiation of the SAC sample by milling with SE, which is confirmed by S K‐edge X‐ray absorption fine structure measurements. Such prelithiation is advantageous for fabricating high‐energy‐density all‐solid‐state cells.
