Abstract

The All-Solid-State-Batteries (ASSBs) are considered as the future energy storage sources, which find their potential applications as a power source over a myriad of emerging fields ranging from electric vehicles to the space crafts. In order to meet the market demands, the ASSBs should endure a step-change in its research and development, starting from the material synthesis to the novel design aspects. The ASSBs confront many challenges to attain the goal of fulfilling the market demands, such as high energy density, low conductivity of the solid electrolyte, high impedance at the solid–solid interfaces, low calendar and cycling life of the batteries, scarcity of effective tools for the nano-interface characterization, safety issues, high manufacturing cost, difficulties with the mass production, and so-on. The chapter addresses the market expectations and the aforementioned challenges for the user-end ubiquitous industrial commercialization of ASSBs.
