The Front Cover shows the robust design of a composite electrode in which an ionic liquid is utilized as a pore filler, thereby, enabling a high‐performance all‐solid‐state battery. Using ionic liquid as a pore‐filler improves the contact area between the cathode materials and the solid‐electrolyte particles and minimizes overpotential at the interfaces. Based on a conventional electrode fabrication process, the proposed all‐solid‐state battery exhibits comparable electrochemical performance to conventional lithium‐ion batteries at room temperature. This can provide a practical guideline for developing high‐performance all‐solid‐state batteries.
