Lithium metal batteries with liquid electrolytes are not safe because of dendrite growth. A new electrode structure consisting of porous silicon is shown to suppress dendrite growth, enabling high-power and safe battery. The results, supported by the study of reaction mechanisms, demonstrate excellent Coulombic efficiency and high volumetric energy density.
