Stabilizing lithium metal anode by octaphenyl polyoxyethylene-lithium complexation.

abstract：:It is well known that a topologically protected gapless state appears at an interface between a topological insulator and an ordinary insulator; however, the physics of the interface between a topological insulator and a metal has largely been left unexplored. Here we report a novel phenomenon termed topological proxi...
