Figure 1: Schematic of the morphologies of lithium deposited on the substrate in different electrolytes.
From: The synergetic effect of lithium polysulfide and lithium nitrate to prevent lithium dendrite growth

Schematic illustration showing the morphology difference of lithium deposited on the stainless steel substrate in the two electrolytes (both contain lithium nitrate), but (a) without lithium polysulfide (b) containing lithium polysulfide.
