Owing to the ever‐increasing safety concerns about conventional lithium‐ion batteries, whose applications have expanded to include electric vehicles and grid‐scale energy storage, batteries with solidified electrolytes that utilize nonflammable inorganic materials are attracting considerable attention. In particular, owing to their superionic conductivities (as high as ≈10⁻² S cm⁻¹) and deformability, sulfide materials as the solid electrolytes (SEs) are considered the enabling material for high‐energy bulk‐type all‐solid‐state batteries. Herein the authors provide a brief review on recent progress in sulfide Li‐ and Na‐ion SEs for all‐solid‐state batteries. After the basic principles in designing SEs are considered, the experimental exploration of multicomponent systems and ab initio calculations that accelerate the search for stronger candidates are discussed. Next, other issues and challenges that are critical for …
