Hypercrosslinked Metal-Organic Polyhedra Electrolyte with High Transference Number and Fast Conduction of Li Ions.

Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) with high Li-ion transference numbers and fast ionic conductivity are urgently needed for technological innovations in lithium-metal batteries. To promote the dissociation of ion pairs and overcome the mechanical brittleness and interface defects caused by traditional fillers in polymeric electrolytes, we designed and fabricated a cationic hypercrosslinking metal-organic polyhedra (HCMOPs) polymer as SSE. Benefiting a three-component synergistic effect: cationic MOPs, branched polyethyleneimine macromonomer and polyelectrolyte units, the Li-HCMOP electrolyte possesses a high Li-ion conductivity, a high Li-ion transference number and a low activation energy. Their LiFePO4/Li batteries exhibit high capacity with superior rate performance and cycling stability. Moreover, soluble MOPs serve as high crosslinking nodes to provide excellent mechanical strength for electrolytes and good compatibility with polymers. This work highlights an effective idea of high-performance MOP-based solid-state electrolytes applied in LMBs.

Accelerated Exploration of Empty Material Compositional Space: Mg-Fe-B Ternary Metal Borides.

Borides are a family of materials with valuable properties for various applications. Their diverse structures and compositions, yet disparity in the constituent chemical elements for the known compounds, give elemental substitutions for prototypes great potential for material discovery. To explore uncharted material compositional space, we develop a workflow that joins high-throughput crystal structure prediction and automated diffraction pattern matching to discover new compounds with significant prediction and synthesis hurdles. Utilizing the workflow, we explore the empty Mg-Fe-B ternary compositional space, previously uncharted largely due to the immiscibility of Mg and Fe, as a paradigm. A total of 275 ternary boride prototypes are classified, using which we predict 23 (158) stable and metastable ternary phases within 50 (200) meV/atom above the convex hull. We identify Gd2(FeB)7-type Mg2Fe7B7 and ZrCo3B2-type MgFe3B2 to match previously unsolved experimental powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) patterns. The discovered Mg2Fe7B7 and related channeled structures feature mismatched Mg and (FeB) sublattice periods, for which we conduct structural analyses with respect to the PXRD. They are predicted to exhibit exceptionally fast superionic transport of Mg and outstanding electrochemical performance, which serve as post-Li-ion battery candidate electrode materials. This result opens a new avenue for borides' potential applications as electrode materials and fast ionic conductors. This work also portrays the map and landscape of ternary metal borides with similar chemical environments. With high efficiency, the prototype- and PXRD-assisted crystal structure prediction workflow opens a new avenue for exploring various material compositional spaces across the periodic table.

Composite Solid-State Electrolyte with Vertical Ion Transport Channels for All-Solid-State Lithium Metal Batteries.

Composite solid electrolytes (CSEs) consisting of polymers and fast ionic conductors are considered a promising strategy for realizing safe rechargeable batteries with high energy density. However, randomly distributed fast ionic conductor fillers in the polymer matrix result in tortuous and discontinuous ion channels, which severely constrains the ion transport capacity and restricts its practical application. Here, CSEs with highly loaded vertical ion transport channels are fabricated by magnetically manipulating the alignment of Li0.35La0.55TiO3 nanowires. The construction of densely packed, vertically aligned ion transport channels can effectively enhance the ion transport capacity of the electrolyte, thereby significantly increasing ionic conductivity. At room temperature (RT), the presented CSE exhibits a remarkable ionic conductivity of up to 2.5 × 10-4 S cm-1. The assembled LiFePO4/Li cell delivers high capacities of 118 mAh g-1 at 5 C at 60°C and a RT capacity of 115 mAh g-1 can be achieved at a charging rate of 0.5 C. This work paves an encouraging avenue for further development of advanced CSEs that favor lithium metal batteries with high energy density and electrochemical performance.

Multiband Spectrum Method for Quantifying the Ionic Contribution of Volume Strategy and Filler Strategy: Enhancing the Ionic Transport Channels for Polymeric Solid-State Batteries.

As a promising solution for solid-state batteries with high energy density and safety, understanding the mechanism of fast ion conduction in polymer-ceramic composite solid-state electrolytes (CSEs) is still a challenging task. Herein, we understand the enhanced ion conduction in CSEs using a series of ionic spectra. Ionic insight is extended to ion conduction in CSEs, resolving the mechanism of fast ion migration. With the cooperation of enhanced interface and filler ion conduction, the CSE with a conductive filler exhibits ionic conductivity higher than that of CSEs with insulating fillers. Volume and filler strategies of CSE design are proposed based on volcanic maps of conductivity. An equivalent circuit is established to describe the conduction mechanism of CSEs. Specifically, Rinterface and Rfiller are in parallel to describe the cooperation of interface and filler conduction. They are in series with Rbulk, which represents a competition between the fundamental matrix and enhanced interface conduction. The proposed conduction model is verified though the energy storage performance of solid-state batteries; a fast dynamic process promises a better rate performance and cycling stability of solid-state batteries. These results provide deep insights into fast ion conduction in ceramic-polymer CSEs, which are indispensable to develop high-performance solid-state batteries.

Controlled Interfacial Tailoring of Hierarchical Silicon Synergizes Charge Transport Enabling Stable and Fast Lithium Storage.

Silicon is a promising anode material candidate but encounters volume change and capacity decay issues. Although diverse demonstrations in structural and interfacial engineering, the performance toward industrial applications remains to be improved. Herein, a controlled interfacial tailoring strategy is proposed for micro-nano hierarchically structured silicon. The resultant granules, consisting of randomly interconnected silicon debris modified by an electrically conductive carbon layer and a superionic sulfide conductor specifically in a controlled form (nanoparticles, coats, and matrices), attain distinctly different cyclic performances. As the carbon coating generally provides electron transfer paths for silicon, the introduced fast ion conductor exhibits a strong correlation with its configuration in facilitating ion transportation as well as improving the materials utilization and cyclic stability. Impressively, the granules encapsulated with a fast ion conductor layer show remarkably improved cycling performance and rate capability, attributable to a decent synergy of transmitting both electrons and lithium ions throughout the granule.

High-Performance Solid-State Lithium Metal Batteries of Garnet/Polymer Composite Thin-Film Electrolyte with Domain-Limited Ion Transport Pathways.

The integrated approach of interfacial engineering and composite electrolytes is crucial for the market application of Li metal batteries (LMBs). A 22 μm thin-film type polymer/Li6.4La3Zr1.4Ta0.6O12 (LLZTO) composite solid-state electrolyte (LPCE) was designed that combines fast ion conduction and stable interfacial evolution, enhancing lithium metal interface stability and cycling performance. The ether-based molecular coordination groups/clusters formed by triethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TGDE) and anions facilitated the movement of Li+ between the polymer chain segments. These specific coordination clusters significantly "constrained" the interaction between anions and Li+, inducing the anions to follow the clusters to the Li metal and preferentially participate in solid electrolyte interface (SEI) derivatization. The inorganic salt-rich gradient SEI modulates Li+ deposition and inhibits uncontrolled dendrite growth, achieving stable cycling of Li symmetric cell at 0.2 mA cm-2 for over 2000 h. Furthermore, the Li||NCM811 cell at a rate of 0.1 C exhibits an initial discharge capacity of 194.5 mAh g-1, maintaining a capacity retention rate of over 90% after 500 cycles. This work demonstrates the importance of domain-limited ion clusters in ion transport and interfacial evolution, providing a perspective for solid-state LMBs.

Supramolecular Crystals based Fast Single Ion Conductor for Long-cycling Solid Zinc Batteries.

The solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) used in Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) have low ionic conductivity due to the sluggish dynamics of polymer segments. Thus, only short-range movement of cations is supported, leading to low ionic conductivity and Zn2+ transference (tZn2+). Zn-based supramolecular crystals (ZMCs) have considerable potential for supporting long-distance Zn2+ transport; however, their efficiency in ZIBs has not been explored. The present study developed a ZMC consisting of succinonitrile (SN) and zinc bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (Zn(TFSI)2), with a structural formula identified as Zn(TFSI)2SN3. The ZMC has ordered three-dimensional tunnels in the crystalline lattices for ion conduction, providing high ionic conductivities (6.02 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 25 °C and 3.26 × 10-5 S cm-1 at -35 °C) and a high tZn2+ (0.97). We demonstrated that a Zn‖Zn symmetrical battery with ZMCs has long-term cycling stability (1200 h) and a dendrite-free Zn plating/stripping process, even at a high plating areal density of 3 mAh cm-2. The as-fabricated solid-state Zn battery exhibited excellent performance, including high discharge capacity (1.52 mAh cm-2), long-term cycling stability (83.6% capacity retention after 70000 cycles (7 months)), wide temperature adaptability (-30 to 50 °C) and fast charging ability.

Improving the Cycle Stability of LiNiO2 through Al3+ Doping and LiAlO2 Coating.

In this study, we addressed the poor cycling and rate performance of LiNiO2, a material with ultrahigh nickel content considered a strong contender for high-energy-density lithium-ion battery cathodes. We introduced nano-Al2O3 during the lithiation process to achieve dual modified material through bulk phase element doping and in situ LiAlO2 coating. Comparison revealed notable improvements in the modified materials. In particular, LiNi0.99Al0.01O2 maintained a capacity retention rate of 73.1% after 300 cycles in a long-cycle test at 0.5C current density, outperforming the undoped material. In rate performance tests, the doped samples consistently exhibited higher discharge-specific capacities than that of the undoped counterpart. Notably, at a high current density of 5C, LiNi0.99Al0.01O2 exhibited a discharge-specific capacity of 101.75 mAh g-1. The results indicate that an appropriate amount of Al doping can effectively stabilize the layered structure of the cathode material and delay the irreversible phase transition from H2 to H3. Further, Al doping facilitates the formation of a LiAlO2 coating on the surface of the particles. This coating acts as a fast-ion conductor, enhancing the transport of lithium ions and reducing the erosion of the active material by the electrolyte.

Engineering of aqueous binder mediated organic/inorganic artificial interfacial layers for enhancing silicon anode performance

The expansion of silicon volume significantly impacts the degradation of silicon anodes. The current binder-formed interface fails to effectively suppress this expansion due to the absence of rigid inorganic components. Therefore, we develop an aqueous binder-mediated interfacial engineering strategy to construct an organic/inorganic artificial interfacial layer in situ during the electrode preparation process. This artificial interfacial layer, consisting of an organic alginate–lithium citric acid–tannin derivative (LiACT) binder and inorganic Li2SiO3, is generated by a combination of chemical reactions and hydrogen bonding between tannic acid, citric acid, sodium alginate, silicon, and lithium hydroxide. The three-dimensional structure provides the LiACT binder with a strong binding force. The elasticity of LiACT, the high Young's modulus of Li2SiO3, and their fast ionic conductivity enable this artificial interfacial layer to exhibit robust rigidity-flexibility and excellent ionic-electronic transport properties. Therefore, the Si electrode coated with this artificial interfacial layer (Si@LiACT) exhibits high coulombic efficiency (99.2 % in the 5th cycle), excellent cycling stability (89.2 % capacity retention after 200 cycles), and superior rate performance (1044 mAh g−1 at 4C). These enhancements are attributed to the unique organic/inorganic artificial interfacial layer, which effectively inhibits silicon volume expansion, alleviates interfacial side reactions, and promotes interfacial charge transfer.

High-throughput screening of halide solid-state electrolytes for all-solid-state Li-ion batteries through structural descriptor

All-solid-state Li-ion batteries (ASSLIBs) have attracted great attention due to their intrinsic safety and high potential energy density. To realize ASSLIBs, the development of solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) with favorable electrochemical stability and high Li-ion conductivity is of utmost significance. Compared to trial-and-error searches, theoretical computation-based methods are recognized as a powerful tool for accelerating the exploration of SSEs. However, the development of appropriate descriptors is often the first hurdle toward implementing accurate and meaningful screening process. Here we quantified the structural properties pertaining to low Li-ion migration barriers and performed a high-throughput screening of 3119 Li-containing halides obtained from the Materials Project (MP) database to search for promising SSEs. After excluding previously reported SSEs, three candidate materials, Li4ZrF8, Li3ErBr6, and Li2ZnI4 with crystal structure exhibiting 3D diffusion pathway were obtained. Subsequent theoretical calculations of these materials were performed to evaluate their thermodynamic stability, chemical/electrochemical stability, and ionic conductivity. The three halide materials appeared to be promising SSE candidates due to their robust thermodynamical stability against cathodes, and high ionic conductivity. This research provides a new insight and a systematic quantitative understanding of the relationship between the structural properties and Li-ion migration barriers, which can motivate future computational studies on new fast-ion conductors and accelerate the discovery of high ionic conductivity SSEs for the use in ASSLIBs.

Roles of fast-ion conductor NaAlO2 modifying P2-Na0.67Ni0.3Mn0.6Co0.1O2 cathode material for sodium-ion batteries

P2-type layered oxides are promising candidates for sodium-ion batteries. However, structural instability and sluggish Na⁺ diffusion kinetics hinder their further commercialization. In this study, NaAlO2, which possesses a similar α-NaFeO2 layer structure, is coated onto the surface of P2-Na0.67Ni0.3Mn0.6Co0.1O2 (NNMC) to enhance its electrochemical performance as a novel cathode for sodium-ion batteries. A variety of experimental results and characterizations reveal that the thin NaAlO2 coating layer significantly reduces side reactions and facilitates the diffusion of Na⁺ at the interface between the cathode and the electrolyte. Moreover, the introduction of partial Al ions into the transition-metal layers enlarge the interlayer spacing, and decrease the content of Mn3+. As a result, the NNMC cathode material, modified with 3 wt% NaAlO2, demonstrated remarkable electrochemical performance. The initial specific discharge capacity was recorded at 137.7 mA h g−1 at 0.2 C, and an impressive discharge capacity of 38.2 mA h g−1 was attained at 20 C. Following 100 cycles at a rate of 0.5 C, the capacity retention rate was determined to be 99.6 %.

Construction of composite lithium with high adhesion work and fast ionic conductivity by black phosphorus for solid-state lithium batteries

Li6.4La3Zr1.4Ta0.6O12 (LLZTO) based solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) have a broad application prospect because of the nonflammable nature as well as the high energy density. However, the loose contact and the contact degradation of Li/LLZTO in the stripping process result in the serious lithium dendrites growth. Herein, these issues are addressed by a composite lithium anode (CLA), which is prepared through the reaction between black phosphorus and molten lithium. In comparison to pure lithium, a higher adhesion work (722.67 mJ m−2) and Li+ diffusion coefficient (2.45×10−12 cm2 s−1) are achieved for CLA, thus assuring the intimate interfacial contact of CLA/LLZTO interface during the lithium stripping process. As a result, a small interfacial resistance of 3.7 Ω cm2, a high critical current density of 1.5 mA cm−2, and extra-long cycle life of 8200 h at 0.3 mA cm−2 are achieved for CLA symmetric cell at 25 ºC. More importantly, the full cell coupled with high mass loading LiFePO4 cathode (10.6 mg cm−2) still shows a large discharge capacity of 156.3 mAh g−1 and cycles stably at 25 ºC. This work provides an alternative approach to develop the long lifespan and high capacity of SSLMBs.

Versatile Peroxide Route-Based Kinetics-Controlled Coating Method to Construct Uniform Alkali Metal-Containing Fast Ionic Conductor Nanoshells.

Constructing a uniform coating of alkali metal-containing fast ionic conductors is crucial for realizing multifunctional responses and functionalities. However, the uncontrolled coprecipitation of alkali and transition metal ions, stemming from their significant difference in reactivity, poses a significant challenge in pursuing homogeneous and continuous nanoshells for fast ionic conductors. Here, we report a versatile peroxide-based kinetics-controlled coating approach for constructing alkali metal-containing fast ionic conductors using LiNbO3 as a proof-of-concept. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was employed as an innovative precipitant, and the deposition kinetics could be precisely tuned by adjusting the pH value of the solution to facilitate the coprecipitation of the transition metal and ammonium/hydrogen ions. The latter could subsequently be exchanged with lithium ions and transformed into uniform LiNbO3 nanoshells after low-temperature annealing (280 °C). The obtained LiNbO3 coating layers are continuous, thickness-tunable, and exhibit significantly higher ionic conductivity, 2 orders of magnitude greater than conventional counterparts. This enhancement enables solid-state batteries with excellent cycling and rate performance. Furthermore, this method is extendable to various alkali metal-based (Li, Na, and K) fast ionic conductor nanoshells, injecting new vitality into the advanced applications of fast ionic conductors in various battery systems.

Growth mechanism and SERS effect of Ag nanowire arrays prepared by solid-state ionics method

Solid-state ionic method has attracted more and more attention due to its simple operation and controllable preparation, but its growth mechanism is still uncertain. In this work, Ag nanowire (Ag NW) arrays prepared by solid-state ionics method at 5 μA impressed currents using fast ionic conductor RbAg4I5 films and different metal electrodes were reported. The conduction mode of Ag+ in RbAg4I5 films, the growth mechanism of Ag NW arrays prepared by solid-state ionics method and the effect of microscopic morphology on surface-enhance Raman scattering (SERS) performance were investigated. The results show that Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with diameters from 40 nm to 70 nm were attached to the surface of Ag NW arrays with diameters of 80–150 nm prepared with different metal electrodes, which lead to Ag NW arrays have high surface roughness. The conduction velocity and stability of Ag+ in RbAg4I5 films are closely related to the morphology of Ag NW arrays. The irregular electrode interface and apical growth advantage resulted in the fractal dimension of Ag NW arrays prepared with Ag electrodes is 1.69 due to macroscopic dendritic structure. Ag NW arrays have excellent SERS performance due to the many Ag NPs attached to the surface of the closely aligned Ag NWs, the limit of detection (LOD) for Basic Fuchsin (BF) and Crystal Violet (CV) detected by Ag NW arrays SERS substrates prepared with Ag electrodes are as low as 10−11and 10−14mol/L, respectively. This paper provides a reference for the preparation method of metal nanostructures, Ag NW arrays have good potential for application in the field of trace analysis.

Confined Polyethylene Glycol Anchored in Kaolinite as High Ionic Conductivity Solid-State Electrolyte for Lithium Batteries.

Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) have garnered significant attention as critical materials for enabling safer, energy-dense, and reversible electrochemical energy storage in batteries. Among the various types of solid electrolytes developed, composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs) have stood out as some of the most promising candidates due to their well-rounded performance. In this study, we choose polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the covalent grafting intercalant and lithium perchlorate as carrier source to prepare a fast lithium ion conductor, K-PEG-Li doped with clay-based active filler as a CPE. The CPE exhibits excellent lithium conduction (4.36 × 10-3 S cm-1 at 25 °C and 3.32 × 10-2 S cm-1 at 115 °C), great mechanical performance with good tensile strength (6.07 MPa) and toughness (strain 313%), and convincing flame-retardancy. These outstanding conducting and mechanical functionalities indicate that such a clay-based active filler doped composite polymer electrolyte will find promising application in solid-state lithium batteries.

Zincophilic Nanospheres Assembled as Solid-Electrolyte Interphase on Zn Metal Anodes for Reversible High-rate Zn-Ion Storage.

Aqueous Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) are considered to be one of the most promising energy storage devices in the post-lithium-ion era with fast ionic conductivity, safety, and low cost. However, excessive accumulation of zinc dendrites will fracture and produce dead zinc, resulting in the unsatisfied utilization rate of Zn anodes, which greatly restricts the lifespan of the battery and reduces the reversibility. In this paper, by constructing a protective layer of ZnSnO3 hollow nanospheres in situ growth on the surface of the Zn anode, more zincophilic sites are established on the electrode surface. It demonstrates that uniform deposition of Zn ions by deepening the binding energy with Zn ion and its unique hollow structure shortens the diffusion distance of Zn ions and enhances the reaction kinetics. The assembled Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitor (ZHSC) of ZnSnO3@Zn//AC achieved a long-term lifespan with 4000 cycles at a current density of 10mAcm-2 with a Coulombic efficiency of 99.31% and capacity retention of 79.6%. This work offers a new path for advanced Zn anodes interphase supporting the long cycle life with large capacities and improving electrochemical reversibility.

Robust self-healing ion-conductive interlocking dual-network binder based on gradient dynamic bonding for advanced SiO anodes in Li-Ion batteries

Silicon-based (e.g., SiO) anodes have attracted much attention for their high specific capacity; however, poor conductivity and dramatic volume change during the charge/discharge cycling hinder their commercial application in high energy density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Ideal binders hold a decisive effect on inhibiting the volume effect of the silicon-based anode. Herein, inspired by the hierarchical structure of living organisms, we design a multifunctional self-healing interlocking dual-network binder based on gradient dynamic bonding and apply the binder to SiO anode toward high specific capacity and long-term cycle performance. Specifically, rigid polyacrylic acid (PAA) and flexible polylipoic acid (PTA) are interlocked by gradient dynamic bonding containing of disulfide linkage, metalcoordination and hydrogen bonding. The obtained binder has strong adhesion, high mechanical toughness, fast self-healing performance and high ionic conductivity, which enable the SiO anode effectively buffering the volume expansion and exhibiting excellent cycling stability. The SiO electrode with the new binder delivers a high capacity of 884.8 mAh/g at a current density of 0.5 A/g after 500 cycles and a high capacity of 765.2 mAh/g at a high mass loading of 3.0 mg cm−2 after 100 cycles. Moreover, the assembled SiO||NCM811 full cell achieves a reversible capacity of 169.75 mAh/g with capacity retention of 77.5 % after 100 cycles. This work offers a new method for the design of versatile self-healing binder adaptive to electrode volume change, so as to accelerate the application of the silicon-based anode.

Aggregate-Dominated Dilute Electrolytes with Low-Temperature-Resistant Ion-Conducting Channels for Highly Reversible Na Plating/Stripping.

Developing rechargeable batteries with high power delivery at low temperatures (LT) below 0°C is significant for cold-climate applications. Initial anode-free sodium metal batteries (AFSMBs) promise high LT performances because of the low de-solvation energy and smaller Stokes radius of Na+, nondiffusion-limited plating/stripping electrochemistry, and maximized energy density. However, the severe reduction in electrolyte ionic conductivity and formation of unstable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) hinder their practical applications at LT. In this study, a 2-methyltetrahydrofuran-based dilute electrolyte is designed to concurrently achieve an anion-coordinated solvation structure and impressive ionic conductivity of 3.58mScm-1 at -40°C. The dominant aggregate solvates enable the formation of highly efficient and LT-resistant Na+ hopping channels in the electrolyte. Moreover, the methyl-regulated electronic structure in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran induces gradient decomposition toward an inorganic-organic bilayer SEI with high Na+ mobility, composition homogeneity, and mechanical robustness. As such, a record-high Coulombic efficiency beyond 99.9% is achieved even at -40°C. The as-constructed AFSMBs sustain 300 cycles with 80% capacity maintained, and a 0.5-Ah level pouch cell delivers 85% capacity over 180 cycles at -25°C. This study affords new insights into electrolyte formulation for fast ionic conduction and superior Na reversibility at ultralow temperatures.

A niobium and tantalum co-doped perovskite electrolyte with high ionic conduction for low-temperature Ceramics Fuel cell

In recent studies, fast ionic conduction through surface doping and coating has been a favorite subject and has indicated a promising and stable strategy to optimize ions in the developed electrolytes for low-temperature ceramic fuel cells (LT-CFCs). We have designed co-doped perovskite (Nb/Ta-SrCoO3) to enhance further ionic properties using the Solid-state blending technique. The prepared SCNT (SrCoNb0.3Ta0.3O3) was used as an electrolyte sandwiched between symmetrical electrodes and delivered attractive fuel cell performance (650 mW/cm2) with better stability at the low operating temperature of 520 °C compared to other compositions of SCNT. The low grain boundary resistance manifests SCNT's high ionic conduction + microstructural properties, assisting with higher fuel cell performance. The co-doping enables the fermi-level to move towards the -ive side, establishing a space charge region constituting BIEF (built in electric field) and helping to enhance the ions' transportation through the surface and interface. This work thus points out a new type of electrolyte with a different working mechanism from previous studies. It indicates a feasible approach to developing high-performing and stable electrolytes for LT-CFCs.
