Abstract
Lithium-oxide-halide and lithium-hydroxide-halide antiperovskites were explored for potential electrolytes in all-solid Li-ion batteries. A single-phase sample of the Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) series of compounds, LiBr(Li2OHBr)2 with double antiperovskite Li2OHBr layers and rigid rock-salt type LiBr layers, was obtained. Li+-ion vacancies are introduced in the double antiperovskite Li2OHBr layers but not in the LiBr layers and induce two-dimensional Li-ion conduction with low activation energy by mediating Li-ion hopping. In contrast to the Br-containing RP phase, Cl-containing Li-oxide-halide and Li-hydroxide-halide RP phases cannot be crystallized due to the structural mismatch between the antiperovskite layers and rigid LiCl layers.
