Non-Invasive Electrode Impedance Estimation for Optimized Charge Profile Parameterization of Lithium-Ion Batteries

This work presents a non-invasive method for parameterizing a physically motivated equivalent circuit model of lithium-ion batteries using operando electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and time-domain data. The proposed model consists exclusively of linear circuit elements, enabling computationally efficient simulation and real-time implementation on battery management system chips. By integrating frequency- and time-domain measurements, the model accurately estimates internal states such as the negative electrode potential, achieving a root mean square error of 12.3 mV during fast charging validation. Parameterization requires only rate tests with sinusoidal perturbations at three different ambient temperatures, making the approach experimentally accessible. The model reveals key insights into battery behavior, including rate-dependent overpotentials primarily governed by charge transfer kinetics at the positive electrode, and temperature-dependent impedance contributions from both charge transfer and solid-state diffusion processes. Validation using reference electrodes confirms the model’s ability to detect lithium plating onset and reproduce impedance behavior across a wide range of operating conditions. The approach enables in situ optimization of fast charging profiles and lays the foundation for future extensions incorporating aging effects and plating dynamics.

Mapping of fracture and ionic conductivity changes in ion implanted solid electrolytes: Insights from molecular dynamics

Ion implantation emerges as a promising technique to address the persistent challenge of lithium (Li) filament growth in solid-state electrolytes as it can induce compressive stresses inhibiting crack growth and deflect dendrites, de facto mitigating early electrolyte failure. In this study, we examine the potential paradox of ion implantation: while aiming to enhance electrolyte performance, the radiation damage associated with implantation might inadvertently compromise both the ionic conductivity and the intrinsic fracture toughness of the material, rendering the material unsuitable for battery applications. Specifically, we employed molecular dynamics simulations to examine the scope of the downsides of ion implantation, specifically: (i) reduced ionic conductivity (due to radiation-induced amorphization) and (ii) mechanical stability (due to radiation-induced embrittlement) in ion-implanted Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 (LLZO) solid-state electrolytes. We explore how radiation damage impacts LLZO’s crystalline structure, Li-ion diffusion, and fracture properties at various temperatures and radiation damage levels. The study aims to provide insights into the competing effects of ion implantation and suggest potential engineering strategies for developing more robust solid-state electrolytes with improved conductivity and dendrite resistance.

Advancing Sodium-Ion Battery Cathodes: A Low-Cost, Eco-Friendly Mechanofusion Route from TiO 2 Coating to Ti 4+ Doping

Layered oxide battery cathodes often require extra stabilization strategies, such as surface coating or doping, to mitigate side reactions and enhance longevity. Conventional methods such as aqueous deposition and atomic layer deposition are costly and environmentally unfriendly and even damage the original structure, especially for air-sensitive sodium-ion battery (SIB) cathodes. Herein, we introduce an all-dry mechanofusion technique that modifies hydroxide precursors with TiO 2 coating before sintering with a sodium source. Using advanced characterizations including X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction, and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance for structural insights, X-ray absorption spectroscopy to study metal valence states, and transmission X-ray microscopy for nanoscale visualization of nickel oxidation states, we verified that postsintering transforms TiO 2 surface coating into Ti doping, leading to improved Ni-oxidation homogeneity, modified charge compensation, and enhanced thermal stability. Electrochemical tests reveal superior performance in capacity retention, rate capability, and air stability for these modified cathodes, with pouch cells maintaining over 85% capacity after 650 cycles. This method presents a sustainable, cost-effective route for advanced SIB cathode development.

Nanoporous Fe 2 O 3 and Soluble Fe(II) Intermediates Accelerate the Electrodeposition of Fe in NaOH(aq)

Electrochemical conversion of iron oxide to iron metal can enable low-cost batteries for long duration energy storage and zero-emissions ironmaking for steel. Iron oxides, such as hematite, can be electrochemically reduced to metallic iron in concentrated alkaline electrolytes at modest temperatures, but the relative influences of solid-state and dissolved intermediates at practical reaction rates remains unclear. Here, in this study, we prepare a homologous set of well-defined hematite particles to measure how the nanoscale morphology of oxides controls both their reactivity and apparent reduction mechanism in concentrated hydroxide. Correlated electron microscopy and rotating-ring-disk-electrode measurements revealed that nanoporous hematite and solid intermediates formed iron via a dissolution-redeposition pathway. In contrast, dense hematite particles directly formed iron metal via reactive fracture. While previous studies on iron electrowinning have primarily emphasized the role of particle diameter at the micron scale, these results demonstrate the importance of the dissolution-redeposition pathway to support rapid reaction rates and suggest that nanoscale porosity controls iron oxide reactivity at temperatures <100 °C. Therefore, iron-oxide-to-metal electrolyzers and fast-charging iron-air batteries supported by curtailed electricity can increase the rate of metal formation by accelerating fracture and dissolution in reactant oxides.

Manipulating Na/TM Ratio‐Driven Structural Heterogeneity of O3‐NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 Cathode for High‐Voltage Sodium‐Ion Batteries

The stability of O3-type NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 under high-voltage cycling is dictated by how synthesis encodes lattice strain and redox heterogeneity. Here, in this study, the role of Na:TM stoichiometry is systematically resolved by tuning the NaOH:precursor ratio during solid-state synthesis. The stoichiometric condition (Na:TM = 1.00) yields minimized microstrain, enabling uniform O3–P3 phase evolution and homogeneous multi-metal redox with preserved octahedral symmetry. In contrast, Na-excess compositions inherit disordered intermediates and heterogeneous distortion fields that trigger abrupt multiphase transitions and promote localized charge redistribution. In situ XRD captures the divergence in phase-transition pathways, TXM resolves particle-level redox heterogeneity, and XANES corroborates a stronger and more reversible Fe redox contribution at stoichiometry, shifting to diminished Fe participation and spatially inhomogeneous redox at higher Na content. These results establish Na:TM stoichiometry as a critical synthesis parameter controlling both structural coherence and redox stability. Electrochemically, the stoichiometric composition exhibits smooth voltage profiles with minimal polarization growth and retains nearly 80% of its initial capacity after 100 cycles even at an extended 4.2 V cutoff, whereas Na-excess compositions show significantly reduced initial coulombic efficiency and rapid voltage fade. Precise stoichiometric tuning provides a scalable route to defect-suppressed O3 frameworks, enabling structurally resilient, high-voltage sodium-layered cathodes.

Visualizing Crystallization Dynamics and Transformation Pathways of Disordered Rocksalt Oxides During Thermally Activated Sol–Gel Synthesis

Sol–gel synthesis is a wet-chemical processing route for fabricating functional materials with control over composition and microstructure at relatively low temperatures compared to conventional solid-state synthesis. While sol–gel process initiates with intermixed molecular precursors, the early-stage nucleation pathways are insufficiently understood. Here, in this study, the chemical and structural transformation of ion disordered rocksalt (DRX) Li 1.2 Mn 0.4 Ti 0.4 O 2 (LMTO), a promising cathode material for lithium batteries, is studied by multiscale characterizations. In situ heating transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using a liquid cell visualizes and identifies crystallization pathways at the nanoscale. While some regions follow a classical multi-step transition through thermodynamically stable intermediates, others exhibit a kinetic shortcut via a localized amorphous matrix to directly form the DRX structure. Macroscale Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy corroborates the findings and reveals that transition metal ions are more strongly incorporated into the acetate-coordinated network than lithium. Although in situ heating TEM captures diverse local transformation pathways, in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction indicates that the macroscopic transformation proceeds predominantly through spinel LMTO and lithium titanates toward DRX-LMTO. The findings uncover the spatiotemporal chemical and structural transformations in sol–gel derived DRX-LMTO materials, and call for fine-tuning of such sol–gel chemistries to manipulate the crystallization pathways and achieve target material homogeneity more efficiently.

Vanadium-enhanced Na 2 FePO 4 F cathodes for high-performance sodium-ion batteries

Sodium fluorophosphate Na 2 FePO 4 F holds great potential for sodium-ion batteries due to its high theoretical capacity, excellent structural stability, abundant resources, and affordability. However, its poor electronic and ionic conductivities limit its practical applications. Therefore, ion doping and carbon coating have been employed as synergistic strategies in this study to overcome these limitations. A one-step, energy-efficient solid-state method using sucrose as a carbon coating source was used to synthesize Na 2 FePO 4 F/C (NFPF/C) and its doped variant, Na 2 Fe 0.85 V 0.1 PO 4 F/C (NFVPF/C). 23 Na-MAS-NMR spectra confirm the existence of two distinct sites for sodium (Na1/Na2). The ex-situ 23 Na-MAS-NMR performed at different states-of-charge reveals the activity of only one sodium. The scanning electron microscopy findings reveal a reduction in the particle size with V-introduction, enhancing the energetic performances. NFVPF/C delivers higher specific capacity of 122 mAh g −1 compared to 116 mAh g −1 for NFPF/C at 0.1C. It also demonstrates improved cycling stability, retaining 81 % of its initial capacity after 120 cycles, in contrast to 46 % for the pristine material. The doped phase outperforms the pristine at higher current rates, delivering specific capacities of 81 and 55 mAh g −1 at 2C and 3C, respectively, compared to 35 and 17 mAh g −1 for NFPF/C.

Solvent Determines the Formation Pathway in Sol–Gel Synthesized Disordered Rock Salt Material for Lithium Ion Battery Application

The increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries with high capacity and cycling stability, in combination with the scarcity of cobalt and nickel, has led to significant efforts to develop new cathode materials based on earth-abundant transition metals. Mn- and Ti-based disordered rock salt (DRX) cathodes are promising candidates fulfilling these requirements. However, their large-scale fabrication can be energy- and time-intensive using traditional fabrication methods, e.g., solid-state synthesis. The present study showcases sol-gel synthesis as an alternative method with control over the crystallization pathway through solvent choice. Dimethylformamide (DMF) aids the homogenization of the transition metals during early crystallization stages and formation of Li2TiO3 and LiMn2O4 intermediates before the DRX phase is formed. In contrast, 2-methoxyethanol (2-ME) shows transition metal segregation and formation of an additional transition metal intermediate (Ti2MnO4) while not resulting in phase-pure DRX material after calcination. Coin cells prepared with DMF-material yield higher capacity and cycling stability compared with 2-ME material.

Water-In-Glass: A Self-Supporting Inorganic Aqueous Electrolyte

Aqueous rechargeable sodium-ion batteries (ARNIBs) are emerging as cost-effective and safe candidates for large-scale energy storage applications. However, their advancement has been constrained by the narrow electrochemical stability window (ESW) of conventional aqueous electrolytes (1.23 V). Here, in this study, we present a transformative approach using an inexpensive and rapidly dissolvable inorganic glass material, water glass (W-glass), to significantly enhance the ESW and enable the development of solid-state, self-supporting aqueous film (SSA film) electrolytes. These SSA film electrolytes exhibit an extended ESW of up to 3.5 V and a conductivity of ∼10 –4 S/cm at room temperature. Structural analysis using magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and solution-state NMR reveals that the dissolution of W-glass in water is driven by the interdependent hydrolysis of P–O–P linkages and Na + –H + ion exchange. This work offers a cost-effective and scalable solution for advancing high-performance ARNIB technology, addressing critical barriers to commercial adoption.

Cycling Performance and Structure Evolution of Co-Free Lithium- and Manganese-Rich Layered Oxides in Lithium-Ion Batteries

Lithium- and manganese-rich (LMR) layered oxides are high-capacity cathode materials that are being considered for electric vehicle (EV) lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Here, we investigate the electrochemical cycling behavior of cells containing a cobalt-free LMR oxide, 0.3Li 2 MnO 3 ·0.7LiMn 0.5 Ni 0.5 O 2 , paired with either Li or graphite anodes. Two- and three-electrode cells are cycled under varying conditions to examine the effects of oxide activation, upper cutoff voltage, separator type, and electrolyte composition. Post-cycling characterization of harvested electrodes, with electrochemical, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and solid-state 6 Li nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy techniques, are used to correlate cell performance changes with redox state evolution in the oxide and Li inventory shifts in the cell. Our results show that capacity fade and impedance rise primarily originate at the graphite anode and LMR cathode, respectively. Notably, while Ni undergoes reversible redox, Mn shows no evidence of bulk redox activity even in highly-aged electrodes: only relithiated LMR electrodes show some reduction of Mn. Graphite electrodes degrade due to particle isolation and SEI growth, exacerbated by Mn dissolution and deposition on graphite anodes. These findings highlight the coupled structural and electrochemical degradation mechanisms in LMR/graphite cells and underscore lithium inventory retention and electrode interfacial stability as critical factors for enhancing long-term performance.

Manganese‐Based Spinel Cathodes: A Promising Frontier for Solid‐State Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Recently, all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (ASSLIBs), which exhibit improved safety and enhanced energy density compared to conventional commercialized lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), thereby have garnered extensive research interest. Among the promising cathode candidates, Mn-based spinel cathodes LiMn 2 O 4 (LMO) and LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 (LNMO), with the unique characteristics of low cost, structural stability, and 3D Li-ion diffusion channels, have demonstrated excellent performance in LIBs and presented great potential in ASSLIBs applications. However, several challenges, including structural degradations, poor interfacial contact, large interfacial resistance, and Mn-dissolution/diffusion during the electrochemical cycling, hinder their practical applications and commercialization in the ASSLIBs. Particularly, the high-voltage LNMO cathodes suffer from the challenge of electrochemical incompatibility with most of the solid-state electrolytes (SSEs). Herein, the spinel structure, the electrochemical behavior, and the structural degradation of the LMO/LNMO are explored. The characteristics and recent progress of the mitigating strategies to the challenges of various SSEs, including polymer-, oxide-, composite-, sulfide-, halide-, and LiPON-based SSEs, are introduced when paired with LMO/LNMO. Finally, the directions for future research to advance Mn-based spinel cathodes and fulfill the requirements of the next-generation ASSLIBs are also discussed.

Efficient Low-Temperature Direct Lithium Extraction from Chloride Brines Enabled by High-Capacity Sorbent

The demand for lithium, a key component in rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems, has surged in recent years. Meeting this demand requires efficient extraction methods that are both environmentally friendly and economically viable. This study investigates the utilization of the high-capacity sorbent amorphous aluminum hydroxide for enabling efficient direct lithium extraction at low temperatures. Traditional extraction methods often involve acid-leaching and energy-intensive processes that are not only expensive but also environmentally taxing. In contrast, our approach leverages the exceptional sorption properties of amorphous aluminum hydroxide to facilitate lithium extraction directly from brine, achieving extraction efficiencies of 94.4% in case 1 and 96.2% in case 2 at low temperatures. Kinetic modeling using the Avrami–Erofe’ev framework reveals a nucleation-growth mechanism ( n = 0.71, k = 0.131 h –1 ), providing quantitative insights into the solid-state phase transformation process. This method significantly reduces energy consumption and minimizes the environmental footprint. Through systematic experimentation and optimization, we demonstrate the effectiveness and scalability of our approach, highlighting its potential to revolutionize lithium extraction processes. Our findings highlight the potential of high-capacity sorbents, particularly amorphous aluminum hydroxide toward sustainable lithium production, contributing to the advancement of clean-energy technologies.

In-situ formation of stable interface towards Li-in anode for halide solid-state electrolyte

Halide-based solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) are promising candidates for next-generation all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) due to their high ionic conductivity and chemical stability. However, their poor interfacial compatibility with lithium metal anode and Li-In alloy significantly hinder practical application due to the requirement for a protective interlayer. In this study, a novel approach to overcome this limitation is presented by introducing iron (Fe) doping into Li 3 InCl 6 (LIC), which enables direct and stable contact with lithium-indium (Li-In) metal without a protective interlayer. Thermodynamic and computational analyses identified Fe 3+ as a suitable dopant based on its similar reduction potential to In 3+ and structural compatibility within the halide lattice. The synthesized 10 at. % Fe-doped LIC exhibits high phase purity, retained ionic conductivity, and notably improved interfacial stability. Full-cell tests using Fe-LIC achieve over 300 cycles with 80 % capacity retention. At the same time, symmetric Li-In/ Fe-LIC/ Li-In cells sustain over 500 h of operation, representing the first reported long-term cycling of LIC-based ASSLB without a protective interlayer. In conclusion, this work establishes Fe doping as an effective strategy to stabilize halide SSEs of In system against Li-In alloy, thereby simplifying cell architecture and advancing the development of safer, high-performance halide-based solid-state electrolytes.

Solid‐State Prealkylation of Electrode Architectures (SPEAR): Direct Control of Prelithiation Levels in Silicon Anodes and Electrochemical Cycling

The Solid-state Prealkylation of Electrode ARchitectures (SPEAR) is different than traditional electrochemical prealkylation processes. Through SPEAR, alkylation is driven by solid-state diffusion without the simultaneous SEI formation concomitant with polarization. Here, we investigate the prelithiation of 80 wt. % Si-based anodes to varying amounts (up to Li 1.38 Si) to understand the trade-off between improved Li capacity and expansion-induced stress. Through dilatometry, we found that solid-state lithiation led to filling of the electrode pores through silicon expansion. This swelling changed the SEI formation process and accessibility of the silicon compared to an electrochemically lithiated electrode. Indeed, optimal prelithiation to Li 0.82 Si increases the initial C/3 cycling capacity post-SEI formation up to 43%, consistent with deeper Si activation through the electrode bulk. Prelithiation and cycling cells prelithiated beyond Li 0.82 Si results in a state of charge (SOC) close to 100% which facilitates parasitic degradation mechanisms and volume expansion of the Si electrode. The results demonstrate a pathway to modify silicon activation/SEI formation to enable high-energy electrodes.

Decoding Gas Evolution Pathways and Interfacial Chemistry in Layered Oxide Cathodes for Safer Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are attractive for the low cost and abundance of sodium. Yet, gas evolution—a critical challenge in SIBs—remains underexplored. Here, online electrochemical mass spectrometry is used to probe gas evolution in layered oxide cathodes with various compositions, cutoff voltages, dopants, and particle morphologies. Compared to LiNiO 2 (LNO), NaNiO 2 releases more gas, even at lower states of charge, due to the higher covalency of Ni─O bond caused by the more ionic Na─O bond through the inductive effect. Among Co, Mn, Al, and Mg, Mn and Mg doping suppress gas release most effectively by enhancing the metal-oxygen bond strength. NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 (NFM) cathodes synthesized via coprecipitation (CP-NFM) and solid-state routes exhibit distinct particle morphologies; CP-NFM exhibits more gas evolution, yet secondary particle morphology helps reduce it through differential cathode-electrolyte reactivity between inner and outer primary particles. Among Li, Ti, Mg, and Cu doping in NFM, Li has the largest effect, reducing gas levels comparable to LNO. Nuclear magnetic resonance and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies reveal that electrolyte solvent decomposition mainly produces organic-rich cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) rather than soluble species. NaPF 6 salt further exacerbates cathode-electrolyte reactions, forming surface Na 2 O species. The findings provide actionable guidance for designing safer, durable SIBs.

A Quinoidal Two‐Dimensional Metal–Organic Framework for High‐Performance Micro‐Supercapacitors and Solid‐State Lithium Batteries

Two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) integrating redox-active linkers enable dense charge sites and open ion pathways for microscale energy storage. We report a quinoidal dicarboxylate ligand, AQM-H2L, derived from p-azaquinodimethane, forming crystalline frameworks with Cu2+ and Zn2+ nodes. The Cu-based MOF (AQM-AQM-H2L-Cu) exhibits layered sheets (>14 Å spacing) constructed from dinuclear Cu-carboxylate units and conjugated AQM linkers, which narrow the bandgap and introduce Cu2+/Cu+ pseudocapacitance. Exfoliated nanosheets (∼5 nm) retain crystallinity and excellent processability. Integrated into graphene films, they deliver areal and volumetric capacitances of 29.6 mF cm-2 and 18.1 F cm-3, achieving 2.6 mWh cm-3 energy density at 160 mW cm-3. As ionic fillers (1 wt%) in PEO solid polymer electrolytes, the nanosheets markedly enhance LiFePO4 cell performance, affording 169.8 mAh g-1 at 0.2 C and 93% retention after 400 cycles. This work establishes quinoidal linkers as a compact and robust design motif for ionically active 2D frameworks toward high-performance miniature and solid-state energy devices.

Unveiling the lithium-ion transport mechanism in Li{sub 2}ZrCl{sub 6} Solid-State Electrolyte {ital via} deep learning-accelerated molecular dynamics simulations.

Lithium zirconium chlorides (LZCs) present a promising class of cost-effective solid electrolytes for next-generation all-solid-state batteries. The unique crystal structure of LZCs plays a crucial role in facilitating lithium-ion mobility, which further affects the electrochemical performance. To understand the underlying mechanism governing ion transport, we employed deep learning-accelerated molecular dynamics simulation on Li2ZrCl6 (trigonal alpha- and monoclinic beta-LZC), focusing specifically on the zirconium coordination environment. Our results reveal that disordered alpha-LZC exhibits the highest ionic conductivity, while beta-LZC demonstrates significantly lower conductivity, closely aligning with experimental findings. The study confirms that across all phases, lithium migration proceeds via the site-to-site hopping mechanism, where variations in site residence times critically impact the overall ionic conductivity. In alpha-LZCs, lithium ions prefer to anisotropically diffuse across interlayers as the result of a lower energy barrier, driven primarily by collective diffusion. In contrast, lithium ions in beta-LZC primarily isotropically diffuse within the intralayer, hindered by higher energy barriers and determined by individual diffusion. The variation in ZrCl6 2- octahedral unit softening, induced by the specific layered arrangement of zirconium atoms, emerges as a critical determinant of the energy barriers across the LZC phases. These atomic-scale insights into the transport processes provide valuable guidance for the rational design and optimization of LZCs-based electrolytes, accelerating their practical application in advanced energy storage technologies.

Effects of Synthesis Conditions on the Structure and Conductivity of Hydrogen-Substituted Graphdiyne

This study investigates how synthesis conditions influence the structure and conductivity of hydrogen-substituted graphdiyne (HsGDY). By varying the reaction temperature and solvent, we find that small changes in conditions markedly affect triple-bond retention and electronic continuity. Solid-state 13 C NMR and Raman spectroscopy reveal that elevated temperatures drive alkyne loss and partial graphitization, with N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) promoting faster degradation than pyridine. The resulting decline in alkyne content directly correlates with reduced conductivity, indicating that preserving conjugation is essential for charge transport. These findings clarify how the synthetic environment governs the structural and electronic evolution of graphdiyne frameworks, providing insight into the controlled preparation of conjugated carbon networks.
