Abstract
Major advances in rechargeable batteries require the discovery and characterisation of new materials. It is clear that a complete understanding of the properties of electrode and electrolyte materials for both Li- and Na-ion batteries requires fundamental knowledge of their underlying structural, ion diffusion and surface properties on the atomic- and nano-scales. In this context, advanced materials modelling [1] combined with structural and electrochemical techniques are now powerful tools for investigating these properties. This talk will highlight recent studies [2,3] in the following areas: (i) structural and mechanistic insights into fast lithium-ion conduction in Li4SiO4-Li3PO4 solid electrolytes; (ii) ion diffusion pathways in polyanionic cathode materials such as Li-sulfates (e.g. LiFeSO4OH) and Na-phosphates (e.g. Na2FePO4F, NaFePO4).
