Received: 17 July 2020; Accepted: 11 August 2020; Published: 15 August 2020 Abstract: Energy storage materials are finding increasing applications in our daily lives, for devices such as mobile phones and electric vehicles. Current commercial batteries use flammable liquid electrolytes, which are unsafe, toxic, and environmentally unfriendly with low chemical stability. Recently, solid electrolytes have been extensively studied as alternative electrolytes to address these shortcomings. Herein, we report the early history, synthesis and characterization, mechanical properties, and Li+ ion transport mechanisms of inorganic sulfide and oxide electrolytes. Furthermore, we highlight the importance of the fabrication technology and experimental conditions, such as the effects of pressure and operating parameters, on the electrochemical performance of all-solid-state Li batteries. In particular, we emphasize promising electrolyte systems based on sulfides and argyrodites, such as LiPS5Cl and β-Li3PS4, oxide electrolytes, bare and doped Li7La3Zr2O12 garnet, NASICON-type structures, and perovskite electrolyte materials. Moreover, we discuss the present and future challenges that all-solid-state batteries face for large-scale industrial applications. Keywords: electrolytes; solid state; nanomaterials; sulfides; oxides; all-solid-state batteries; energy storage; composites 1. Introduction Inorganic oxide and sulfide materials have recently been studied as solid electrolytes for all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) owing to their high safety profile, wide temperature window, and better mechanical properties than those of liquid electrolytes. Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) can be widely used for solid-state Li batteries [1,2], sensors [3,4], fuel cells [1], Li-air [1,5,6], and Li-S [7] batteries. Although solid-state electrolytes can be used for all these different applications, we focused mainly on electrolytes for all-solid-state Li batteries. Recently, Reddy et al. [8] summarized the early history of Li batteries. In brief, a Li battery consists of a cathode (positive electrode), an electrolyte (Li ionic conductor), a separator, and an anode (negative electrode). The cathode material consists of either LiCoO2 (LCO), Li(NixMnyCoz)O2 (NMC), LiFePO4 (LFP), or LiMn2O4 (LMO), and in some cases intercalated binary oxides, whereas Li metal, Li-In alloys, graphite, Li4Ti5O12 (LTO), or Si, Sn-Co-C mixed composites are used as anode materials [2]. In addition, Li batteries use liquid [9], gel polymer [10–12], or combinations of polymer and solid electrolytes. The electrode preparation techniques for all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) differ from those of commercial Li batteries. Furthermore, the fabrication technologies of oxide and sulfide electrolyte-based ASSBs are different.

Morales 1,2 and Steven Greenbaum 1,* 1 Department of Physics and Astronomy, Hunter College of the City University of New York, New York, NY 10065, USA; [email protected] 2 Ph.D. Program in Physics, CUNY Graduate Center, New York, NY 10036, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 9 April 2020; Accepted: 28 April 2020; Published: 11 May 2020 Abstract: The widespread use of energy storage for commercial products and services have led to great advancements in the field of lithium-based battery research. In particular, solid state lithium batteries show great promise for future commercial use, as solid electrolytes safely allow for the use of lithium-metal anodes, which can significantly increase the total energy density. Of the solid electrolytes, inorganic glass-ceramics and Li-based garnet electrolytes have received much attention in the past few years due to the high ionic conductivity achieved compared to polymer-based electrolytes. This review covers recent work on novel glassy and crystalline electrolyte materials, with a particular focus on the use of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy for structural characterization and transport measurements. Keywords: NMR; inorganic electrolytes; glassy electrolytes; ceramic electrolytes 1. Introduction As lithium ion batteries continue to permeate the commercial market, the search continues to produce an all solid-state equivalent with the same or superior performance. While liquid organic electrolytes continue to exhibit high performance and long cyclability, the risk of thermal runaway and inability to utilize Li metal anodes without the risk of dendrite formation are ongoing issues.

    Stanniferous Ap;q~rodite from Bolivia : The Identity of the so-called " Crystallised Brongniardite " with A~yyrodite-Cal~fieldite. By G. T. P1~Io~, M.A., F.G.S., and L. J. SPENCER, M.A., F.G.S., Assistants in the ~ineral Department of the British Museum. [Read February 1st, 1898.] HE occurrence in Bolivia of minerals containing the rare element T germanium has been recently noted by Prof. S. L. Penfield. One of these minerals from Potosi, described bv him in 1893, I has the chemical composition of the Freiberg argyrodite (the original source of germanium), but was determined to be cubic, and not monosymmetrie, the system to which argyrodite was originally referred. To the supposed new mineral the name eanfieldite was given, but when Weisbach's re- examination showed that the Freiberg argyrodite was possibly ctlbie, the name was transferred by Penfield to another mineral containing ger- manium, which he described in 1894. 2 This new mineral, Canfieldite, which came from La Paz, occurs as oetahedra modified by doleeahedral planes, and is almost identical with argyrodite in all its physical proper- ties, but differs from it chemically in that it contains tin isomorphously replacing germanium. The formul'~ of argyrodite, as modified by Penfield's analyses of both tile Bolivian and the Freiberg mineral, is 4AgyS.GeS~; that of eanfieldite proper is 4Ag~S.SnS,~. The material actually analysed by Penfield was an isomorphous mixture of tile two, containing about 7 per cent. of tin and nearly 2 per cent, of germanium. To such isomorphous mixtures he proposes that the name argyrodite or eanfieldite should be given according as the germanimn or the tin mole- cule predominates.

Antipov 1,2 & Jean-Marie Tarascon 3 Metal-ion batteries are key enablers in today’s transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy for a better planet with ingeniously designed materials being the technology driver. A 1234567890():,; central question remains how to wisely manipulate atoms to build attractive structural fra- meworks of better electrodes and electrolytes for the next generation of batteries. This review explains the underlying chemical principles and discusses progresses made in the rational design of electrodes/solid electrolytes by thoroughly exploiting the interplay between composition, crystal structure and electrochemical properties. We highlight the crucial role of advanced diffraction, imaging and spectroscopic characterization techniques coupled with solid state chemistry approaches for improving functionality of battery materials opening emergent directions for further studies. nvention of new functional materials is vital for the advancement in technologies that will Imove society towards high global standards of living. Electrode materials have played a crucial role in the development of highly performing Li-ion batteries, as was recognized by the 2019 Nobel Prize recompensing solid-state chemists for their decisive impact1. Yet, the vast number of compositions potentially available from the Periodic Table poses an overwhelming challenge for the materials science community to find new battery electrodes. Obviously, researchers desperately need solid guidelines while searching through this huge parameter space for the best chemical combinations and structures. Solid state chemistry is the art of building the desired atomic arrangements based on information hidden in the Periodic Table.

It is to be remarked that this test is more decisive than if a solution of sodium sulphate had been used and had been tested afterwards. For in this last case, on re­ lease of the pressure, tIle reaction might readily be reversed with recombination of sulphuric acid, had any been liberated. But with the test liquid present during the pressure this r~­ versal could not take place. Carbonic anhydride, therefore, does not even under pressure, set free any portion of sulphuric acid from sodic sulphate. The reactions described in this paper indicate: 1st. That when to free sulphuric acid a salt is added in sufficient quantity to cause the whole of the sulphuric acid to saturate itself with the salt-base, it is possible by means of the berapathite test to determine the exact point of sucb satura­ tion. At this point there will necessarily be as much of the acid at first combined with the base, now free in the solution, as corresponds to one molecule of a bibasic acid, that is two of a monobasic acid, half a molecule of a quadrobasic acid, etc.

As battery technologies are in continuous development, there has been growing demand for more efficient, reliable and environmen- tally friendly materials. Solid-state lithium ion batteries (SSLIBs) are considered as next-generation energy storage systems and solid electrolytes (SEs) are the key components for these systems. Com- pared to liquid electrolytes, SEs are thermally stable (safer), less toxic and provide a more compact (lighter) battery design. However, the main issue is the ionic conductivity, especially at low tem- peratures. So far, there are two popular types of SEs: (1) inorganic solid electrolytes (InSEs) and (2) polymer electrolytes (PEs). Among InSEs, sulfide-based SEs are providing very high ionic conduc- −2 Citation: Karabelli, D.; Birke, K.P.; tivities (up to 10 S/cm) and they can easily compete with liquid electrolytes (LEs).

Roberts 1, Debasish Banerjee1, Tomoya Matsunaga1, Yifei Mo 2,4* & Chen Ling1* Although machine learning has gained great interest in the discovery of functional materials, the advancement of reliable models is impeded by the scarcity of available materials property 1234567890():,; data. Here we propose and demonstrate a distinctive approach for materials discovery using unsupervised learning, which does not require labeled data and thus alleviates the data scarcity challenge. Using solid-state Li-ion conductors as a model problem, unsupervised materials discovery utilizes a limited quantity of conductivity data to prioritize a candidate list from a wide range of Li-containing materials for further accurate screening. Our unsupervised learning scheme discovers 16 new fast Li-conductors with conductivities of 10−4–10−1 Scm−1 predicted in ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. These compounds have structures and chemistries distinct to known systems, demonstrating the capability of unsupervised learning for discovering materials over a wide materials space with limited property data. 1 Toyota Research Institute of North America, Ann Arbor, MI 48105, USA. 2 Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742, USA. 3 Department of Computer Science, Virginia Tech, 7054 Haycock Road, Falls Church,
