The common − active nonaqueous Li O2 battery cathode electrochemistry is the formation (discharge) and decomposition (charge) of lithium peroxide (Li2O2). Recent reports suggest that the introduction of lithium iodide (LiI) to an ether-based electrolyte containing water at impurity levels induces a 4 e− oxygen reduction reaction forming lithium hydroxide (LiOH) potentially mitigating instability issues related to typical Li2O2 formation. We provide fl quantitative analysis of the in uence of LiI and H2O on the electrochemistry − in a common Li O2 battery employing an ether-based electrolyte and a carbon cathode. We confirm, through numerous quantitative techniques, ffi − that the addition of LiI and H2O promotes e cient 4 e oxygen reduction to LiOH on discharge, which is unexpected given that only 2 e− oxygen reduction is typically observed at undoped carbon electrodes. Unfortunately, LiOH is not reversibly oxidized to O2 on charge, where instead a complicated mix of redox shuttling and side reactions is observed. he ever increasing demands for sustainable, low carbon- scientific challenges inhibit the achievement of reversible, ’ ffi emission energy in today s society requires that we e cient Li2O2 formation and oxidation, with two being develop electrochemical energy storage systems that − T particularly pressing.

Only small changes are charges near the redox potential of the mediator, which, if appropriately selected, is only slightly above the open-circuit potential of the battery, rather than reaching the high potentials required to presumably drive charge transport through Li2O2.

  • Lithium Isotope Effects Upon Electrochemical Release from Lithium Manganese Oxide

The lighter isotope of lithium, 6Li, was preferentially fractionated to the electrolyte solution phase, with the value of the lithium isotope separation factor ranging from 0.989 to 0.971 at 25 ºC. The degree of the lithium isotope fractionation was slightly smaller in the LiMn2O4-EC/EMC/NaClO4 system than in the LiMn2O4-EC/EMC/LiClO4 system. The present systems are in great contrast with the lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2)-the electrolyte solution systems concerning the direction and magnitude of the lithium isotope effects, which seems mostly ascribable to the structural difference between LiMn2O4 and LiCoO2ࠋ © 20152014 TheThe Authors.

  • Synthesis, Reactivity, and Catalysis of Group 3 and Lanthanide Alkyl Complexes
    Synthesis, Reactivity, and Catalysis of Group 3 and Lanthanide Alkyl Complexes By Daniel Steven Levine A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor T. Don Tilley, Co-Chair Professor Richard A. Andersen, Co-Chair Professor Alexis T. Bell Summer 2016 Abstract Synthesis, Reactivity, and Catalysis of Group 3 and Lanthanide Alkyl Complexes by Daniel Steven Levine Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor T. Don Tilley, Co-Chair Professor Richard A. Andersen, Co-Chair Chapter 1. A series of scandium dialkyl complexes, (PNP)ScR2 (R = neopentyl, trimethylsilylmethyl), supported by the monoanionic, chelating PNP ligand (2,5- bis(dialkylphosphinomethyl)pyrrolide; alkyl = cyclohexyl, tert-butyl) was synthesized and the reactivities of these complexes toward simple hydrocarbons was investigated. The scandium– carbon bonds undergo σ-bond metathesis reactions with hydrogen and these complexes are catalysts for the hydrogenation of alkenes. Reactions with primary amines led to formation of amido complexes that undergo cyclometalation via σ-bond metathesis, without involvement of an imido complex intermediate. A variety of carbon-hydrogen bonds are also activated, including sp-, sp2-, and sp3-C–H bonds (intramolecularly in the latter case). Levine, D. S.; Tilley, T. D.; Andersen, R. A. Organometallics 2015, 34 (19), 4647. Chapter 2. Terminal group 3 methylidene complexes are generated by thermolysis of monoanionic PNP-supported scandium and yttrium dialkyl complexes. The reaction mechanism has been probed by deuterium-labeling experiments and DFT calculations. Abstraction of a γ- hydrogen from one alkyl group by the other affords a metallacyclobutane that undergoes [2+2] cycloreversion, analogous to a key step in the olefin metathesis reaction, to generate a methylidene complex and isobutene.

Amis Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Zhenmeng Peng Dr. Chand Midha Date ii ABSTRACT To investigate physical and electrochemical properties of polymer electrolyte membranes (PEMs) containing various dinitriles such as succinonitrile (SCN), glutaronitrile (GLN) and adiponitrile (ADN), binary and ternary phase diagrams of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA), GLN and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) blends were firstly established in this thesis. The binary phase diagram of PEGDA/GLN system was self-consistently solved based on the combined free energies of Flory-Huggins theory for liquid-liquid demixing and phase field theory for crystal solidification. Computed liquidus and solidus lines were compared with crystal melting temperatures of the binary pairs, obtained by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurement. The binary phase diagram of LiTFSI/GLN system was drawn according to crystal melting temperatures of the binary pairs determined by DSC measurement. Then coexistence regions of each binary phase diagram were verified by polarized optical microscopy. Subsequently, the ternary phase diagram of PEGDA/GLN/LiTFSI at 25 oC were established.

  • Suppressing Lithium Dendrite Growth with a Single-Component Coating
    Research Article www.acsami.org Suppressing Lithium Dendrite Growth with a Single-Component Coating Haodong Liu, Hongyao Zhou, Byoung-Sun Lee, Xing Xing, Matthew Gonzalez, and Ping Liu* Department of NanoEngineering, University of California San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: A single-component coating was formed on lithium (Li) metal in a lithium iodide/organic carbonate [dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and ethylene carbonate (EC)] electrolyte. LiI chemically reacts with DMC to form lithium methyl carbonate (LMC), which precipitates and forms the chemically homogeneous coating layer on the Li surface. This coating layer is shown to enable dendrite-free Li cycling in a symmetric Li∥Li cell even at a current density of 3 mA cm−2. Adding EC to DMC modulates the formation of LMC, resulting in a stable coating layer that is essential for long-term Li cycling stability. Furthermore, the coating can enable dendrite- free cycling after being transferred to common LiPF6/carbonate electrolytes, which are compatible with metal oxide cathodes. KEYWORDS: single-component coating, lithium-metal anode, dendrite-free, lithium methyl carbonate, LiI, chemically homogeneous coating 1.

Demopoulos2, Michel Armand6 & Karim Zaghib1 Recently, intensive efforts are dedicated to convert and store the solar energy in a single device. Herein, dye-synthesized solar cell technology is combined with lithium-ion materials to investigate light-assisted battery charging. In particular we report the direct photo- oxidation of lithium iron phosphate nanocrystals in the presence of a dye as a hybrid photo-cathode in a two-electrode system, with lithium metal as anode and lithium hexafluorophosphate in carbonate-based electrolyte; a configuration corresponding to lithium ion battery charging. Dye-sensitization generates electron–hole pairs with the holes aiding the delithiation of lithium iron phosphate at the cathode and electrons utilized in the formation of a solid electrolyte interface at the anode via oxygen reduction. Lithium iron phosphate acts effectively as a reversible redox agent for the regeneration of the dye. Our findings provide possibilities in advancing the design principles for photo-rechargeable lithium ion batteries. 1 Institute de Recherche d-Hydro-Que´bec (IREQ), 1800 Boulevard Lionel Boulet, Varennes, Quebec, Canada J3X 1S1. 2 Department of Mining and Materials Engineering, McGill University, Wong Building, 3610 University Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H3A OC5. 3 IMEM-CNR, Parco Area delle Scienze 37/A, 43124 Parma, Italy.
