Lithium metal anodes potentially offer an ultrahigh energy density for Li‐ion batteries. In article number 1701482 , Nae‐Lih Wu and co‐workers report a new strategy for developing a dendrite‐free Li anode technology. A high‐polarity β ‐phase poly(vinylidene difluoride) thin coating with an electronegative F‐rich interface on either copper or lithium metal substrates is demonstrated to enable uniform massive lithium deposition/stripping and high cycle stability.
