Lithium-metal batteries offer substantial advantages over lithium-ion batteries in terms of gravimetric and volumetric energy densities. However, their widespread practical use is hindered by safety concerns, often attributed to the poor stability of the metallic lithium interface, where electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) can provide crucial information. The EIS spectra of metallic lithium electrodes proved to be more complex than expected, especially when studying thin lithium metal foils. Here, it is identified that charge-transfer impedance becomes one of the main components of the EIS spectra, the magnitude of which is found to be strongly dependent on the native passivation layer of metallic lithium and on the nature of electrolyte. "Asymmetricity" of the EIS spectra in symmetric cells when separated the working and counter electrode contributions to the total impedance using three-electrode cells is also identified.
