Sumario:[Image: see text] The lithium metal–solid-state electrolyte interface plays a critical role in the performance of solid-state batteries. However, operando characterization of the buried interface morphology in solid-state cells is particularly difficult because of the lack of direct optical access. Destructive techniques that require isolating the interface inadvertently modify the interface and cannot be used for operando monitoring. In this work, we introduce the concept of thermal wave sensing using modified 3ω sensors that are attached to the outside of the lithium metal–solid-state cells to noninvasively probe the morphology of the lithium metal–electrolyte interface. We show that the thermal interface resistance measured by the 3ω sensors relates directly to the physical morphology of the interface and demonstrates that 3ω thermal wave sensing can be used for noninvasive operando monitoring the morphology evolution of the lithium metal–solid-state electrolyte interface.
