It was established that NASICON-like phases Ag1−xA1−xGa1+x(MoO4)3 are not formed. The triple molyb- dates AgA3Ga (MoO4)5 (A = Mn, Co, Zn) isostructural to triclinic NaMg3In(MoO4)5 (sp. gr. P1, Z = 2) were synthesized and characterized. The structure of the obtained compounds was refined for AgZn3Ga(MoO4)5 according to the powder data by the Rietveld method. The structure consists of MoO4 tetrahedra, couples of edge-shared M(1)O6 octahedra, and trimers of edge-shared M(2)O6–, M(3)6– and M(4)O6 octahedra, which are linked by the common vertices to form a 3D framework. High-temperature conductivity measurements revealed that the –2 conductivity of AgMn3Ga(MoO4)5 at 500°С reaches 10 S / cm, which is close to one of the known NASICON-type ionic conductors.

Interfaces 2021, 13, 13132−13138 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) have attracted considerable attention as an alternative for liquid electrolytes to improve safety and durability. Sodium Super Ionic CONductor (NASICON)-type SSEs, typically Na3Zr2Si2PO12, have shown great promise because of their high ionic conductivity and low thermal expansivity. Doping La into the NASICON structure can further elevate the ionic conductivity by an order of magnitude to several mS/cm. However, the underlying mechanism of ionic transportation enhancement has not yet been fully disclosed. ≤ ≤ Herein, we fabricate a series of Na3+xLaxZr2−xSi2PO12 (0 x 0.5) SSEs. The electronic and local structures of constituent elements are studied via synchrotron-based X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and the ionic dynamics and Na-ion conduction mechanism are investigated by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The results prove that La3+ ions exist in the 4+ form of phosphate impurities such as Na3La(PO4)2 instead of occupying the Zr site. As a result, the increased Si/P ratio in the NASICON phase, accompanied by an increase in the sodium ion occupancy, makes a major contribution to the enhancement of ionic conductivity.

The samples have been characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, diffuse re¯ectance and impedance spectroscopy. There is a reconstructive transition between rombohedral NASICON and orthorhombic Sc243 (WO ) -type structures as a function of x, at very low values, 0.2 and 0.1 for Cr and Fe, respectively. For the Cr series, a further subtle structural change has been observed for x values higher than 1.7. These phases have the Sc243 (WO ) -type framework, but the symmetry is orthorhombic Pcnb at low values of x and monoclinic P21 /n at high values. The structural changes are discussed on the basis of the sizes of the cavities left by the two frameworks and the lithium order/disorder in these voids. These materials are ionic conductors and their electrical behaviours are also discussed. 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

Abstract Sodium ion battery is considered as a potential candidate to replace lithium ion battery. To eliminate the need for containment of the liquid electrolyte, the solid-state electrolytes attract more attention. However, solid state electrolytes are still restricted to be applied for commercialization because of the inherent low ionic conductivity and the poor mechanical properties. Therefore, my Ph.D. research is focused on developing advanced solid-state electrolytes by improving ionic conductivity and disclosing mechanisms of the electrolytes. Firstly, a series of La substituted NASICON electrolytes are prepared to achieve high ionic conductivity of mS/cm, and the effects of La substitution concentration are disclosed.

When Na is gradually replaced by Li , molar volume, glass transition temperature (Tg) and ionic conductivity values decrease, pass through a minimum around the composition x = 1.5, then increase, while density values increase, pass through a maximum, then decrease. The non-linear variation of these physical properties is a result of the classical mixed alkali effect. Powder X-ray diffraction shows that crystallization of the glasses leads to the formation of a Nasicon phase for the compositions x = 0 and x = 0.5, and to a mixture of phases for the other compositions.

Fromm*a Abstract: Lithium ion batteries are typically based on one of three positive-electrode materials, namely layered oxides, olivine- and spinel-type materials. The structure of any of them is ‘resistant’ to electrochemical cycling, and thus, often requires modification/post-treatment to improve a certain property, for example, structural stabil- ity, ionic and/or electronic conductivity. This review provides an overview of different examples of coatings and surface modifications used for the positive-electrode materials as well as various characterization techniques often chosen to confirm/detect the introduced changes. It also assesses the electrochemical success of the surface-modified positive-electrode materials, thereby highlighting remaining challenges and pitfalls.

  • Review of Multivalent Metal Ion Transport in Inorganic and Solid Polymer Electrolytes
    batteries Review Review of Multivalent Metal Ion Transport in Inorganic and Solid Polymer Electrolytes Lauren F. O’Donnell and Steven G. Greenbaum * Department of Physics and Astronomy, Hunter College of the City University of New York, New York, NY 10065, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.:+1-212-772-4973 Abstract: The lithium ion battery, with its high energy density and low reduction potential, continues to enchant researchers and dominate the landscape of energy storage systems development. However, the demands of technology in modern society have begun to reveal limitations of the lithium energy revolution. A combination of safety concerns, strained natural resources and geopolitics have inspired the search for alternative energy storage and delivery platforms. Traditional liquid electrolytes prove precarious in large scale schemes due to the propensity for leakage, the potential for side reactions and their corrosive nature. Alternative electrolytic materials in the form of solid inorganic ion conductors and solid polymer matrices offer new possibilities for all solid state batteries. In addition to the engineering of novel electrolyte materials, there is the opportunity to employ post-lithium chemistries. Utility of multivalent cation (Ca2+, Mg2+, Zn2+ and Al3+) transport promises a reduction in cost and increase in safety. In this review, we examine the current research focused on developing solid electrolytes using multivalent metal cation charge carriers and the outlook for their application in all solid state batteries.

    A Stable Cathode-Solid Electrolyte Composite for Long- Cycle-Life, High Voltage Solid-State Sodium-ion Batteries Erik A. Wu†, Swastika Banerjee†, Hanmei Tang†, Peter M.

Clément*, Abhik Banerjee*, Ying Shirley Meng*, and Shyue Ping Ong* Abstract Rechargeable solid-state sodium-ion batteries (SSSBs) hold great promise for safer and more energy-dense energy storage. However, the poor electrochemical stability between current sulfide- based solid electrolytes and high-voltage oxide cathodes has limited their long-term cycling performance and practicality. Here, we report the discovery of Na3-xY1-xZrxCl6 (NYZC) as an ion conductor that is both electrochemically stable (up to 3.8 V vs. Na/Na+) and chemically compatible -5 -1 with oxide cathodes. Its high ionic conductivity of 6.6 x 10 S cm at ambient temperature, several orders of magnitude higher than oxide coatings, is attributed to abundant Na vacancies and cooperative MCl6 rotation, resulting in an extremely low interfacial impedance. A SSSB comprising a NaCrO2+NYZC composite cathode, Na3PS4 electrolyte, and Na-Sn anode exhibits an exceptional first-cycle Coulombic efficiency of 97.1% at room temperature and can cycle over 1000 cycles with 89.3% capacity retention at 40°C. These findings highlight the immense potential of halide ion conductors for SSSB applications. Introduction A solid-state architecture for rechargeable sodium-ion batteries has garnered substantial research interest in recent years.1–5 By replacing flammable organic liquid electrolytes with solid electrolytes (SEs), solid-state sodium-ion batteries (SSSB) promise not only higher safety, but also potentially enable higher voltage cathodes, metal anodes, and stacking architectures to achieve higher energy densities.
