The interface plays a critical role in the electrochemical performance of batteries. In their Communication on page 15235 ff., J.‐Q. Huang and co‐workers describe the interfacial behavior of the quasi‐solid‐state electrolyte layer Li 3 OCl with a three‐electrode setup. The electrolyte interface can remarkably reduce the over‐potential of the lithium anode and inhibit solvent decomposition, significantly extending the service life of high‐voltage (4.5 V) lithium metal batteries.
