Materials with high ionic conductivity are urgently needed for the development of solid-state lithium batteries. Now, an inorganic solid electrolyte is shown to have an exceptionally high ionic conductivity of 25 mS cm−1, which allows a solid-state battery to deliver 70% of its maximum capacity in just one minute at room temperature.
