Fast galvanic lithium corrosion involving a Kirkendall-type mechanism, Published online: 21 January 2019; doi:10.1038/s41557-018-0203-8

Developing a stable metallic lithium anode is necessary for next-generation batteries; however, lithium is prone to corrosion, a process that must be better understood if practical devices are to be created. A Kirkendall-type mechanism of lithium corrosion has now been observed. The corrosion is fast and is governed by a galvanic process.
