A crystalline solid electrolyte, Li10GeP2S12 (LGPS), was synthesized by a two-step wet process. In the first step, solvated Li4GeS4 was prepared by mixing Li2S and GeS2 powders in EtOH solvent for 3 days at 60°C. The solvated Li4GeS4 was dried in vacuum at room temperature. In the second step, the obtained Li4GeS4 was reacted with Li2S and P2S5 in THF solvent for 3 days at 60°C. After a vacuum drying of the precursor, the crystalline phase of Li10GeP2S12 was obtained by a heat treatment at 550°C for 1hr in vacuum. The Li10GeP2S12 sample showed high ion conductivity of 1.0 x 10-2 Scm-1 at room temperature. The wet synthesis of the solid electrolyte has advantages for mass-production of all-solid-state batteries.
