A single‐material battery is prepared using Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 as the electrolyte, anode, and cathode, based on the Li–S and Ge–S components in Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 acting as the active centers for its cathode and anode performance, respectively. The single‐Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 battery exhibits a remarkably low interfacial resistance due to the improvement of interfacial contact and interactions, and the suppression of interfacial strain/stress.
