K 3 SbS 4 as a Potassium Superionic Conductor with Low Activation Energy for K–S Batteries

Abstract Solid‐state K‐ion conducting electrolytes are key elements to address the current problems in K secondary batteries. Here, we report a sulfide‐based K‐ion conductor K 3 SbS 4 with a low‐activation energy of 0.27 eV. W‐doped K 3− x Sb 1− x W x S 4 ( x =0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.10 and 0.12) compounds were also explored for increasing vacancy concentrations and improving ionic conductivity. Among them, K 2.92 Sb 0.92 W 0.08 S 4 exhibits the highest conductivity of 1.4×10 −4 S cm −1 at 40 °C, which is among the best reported potassium‐ion conductors at ambient temperature. In addition, K 2.92 Sb 0.92 W 0.08 S 4 is electrochemically stable with long‐chained potassium polysulfide of K 2 S x . A room‐temperature solid potassium–sulfur (K−S) battery system has therefore been successfully demonstrated, which is the first K−S battery prototype using non‐commercial inorganic‐based electrolyte to block the polysulfide shuttle.

Aliovalent Anion Incorporation in Halide Na-ion Conductors for Enhanced Ionic Conductivity

Halide-based solid electrolytes (SEs), particularly zirconium (Zr)-centered halides, are attractive from a material cost perspective. Nevertheless, Zr-centered halide SEs are hindered by their low ionic conductivity. Here, in this study, we report on the cubic Na 3 ZrCl 5 S superionic conductor through strategic sulfur anion incorporation, achieving 10 times higher ionic conductivity than that of Na 2 ZrCl 6 . With the optimal composition, the highest ionic conductivity of 0.753 mS cm –1 is obtained for the 0.6Na 2 S–1.4NaCl–ZrCl 4 compound. When paired with a NaCrO 2 cathode, the assembled all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) achieve a specific discharge capacity of 110 mA h g –1 at 0.1C and exhibit long-term cycling stability at 0.3C at room temperature over 1000 cycles (with 83% capacity retention). Moreover, in situ electrochemical impedance spectroscopy combined with distribution of relaxation times analysis reveal the dynamically interfacial stability between Na halide with electrodes. In conclusion, this work highlights the design and synthesis of advanced halide electrolytes through anion incorporation, paving the way for the development of next-generation ASSBs.

Highly-Cyclable Room-Temperature Phosphorene Polymer Electrolyte Composites for Li Metal Batteries

Despite significant interest toward solid-state electrolytes owing to their superior safety in comparison to liquid-based electrolytes, sluggish ion diffusion and high interfacial resistance limit their application in durable and high-power density batteries. Here, a novel quasi-solid Li + ion conductive nanocomposite polymer electrolyte containing black phosphorous (BP) nanosheets is reported. The developed electrolyte is successfully cycled against Li metal (over 550 h cycling) at 1 mA cm -2 at room temperature. The cycling overpotential is dropped by 75% in comparison to BP-free polymer composite electrolyte indicating lower interfacial resistance at the electrode/electrolyte interfaces. Molecular dynamics simulations reveal that the coordination number of Li + ions around (trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TFSI - ) pairs and ethylene-oxide chains decreases at the Li metal/electrolyte interface, which facilitates the Li + transport through the polymer host. Here, density functional theory calculations confirm that the adsorption of the LiTFSI molecules at the BP surface leads to the weakening of N and Li atomic bonding and enhances the dissociation of Li + ions. This work offers a new potential mechanism to tune the bulk and interfacial ionic conductivity of solid-state electrolytes that may lead to a new generation of lithium polymer batteries with high ionic conduction kinetics and stable long-life cycling.

Experimental and modeling studies of PR and ND oxalate solubility to high ionic strengths: Insight into actinide(III) oxalates

Actinide oxalates are chemical compounds important to nuclear industry, ranging from actinide separation in waste reprocessing, to production of specialty actinides, and to disposal of high level nuclear waste (HLW) and spent nuclear fuel (SNF). In this study, the solubility constants for Pr 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O and Nd 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O by performing solubility experiments in HNO 3 and mixtures of HNO 3 and H 2 C 2 O 4 at 23.0 ± 0.2 °C have been determined. The targeted starting materials, Pr 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O and Nd 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O, were successfully synthesized at room temperature using PrCl 3 , NdCl 3 and oxalic acid as the source metrials. Then, we utilized the targeted solubility-controlling phases to conduct solubility measurements. There was no phase change over the entire periods of experiments, demonstrating that Pr 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O and Nd 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O were the solubility-controlling phases in our respective experiments. Based on our experimental data, we have developed a thermodynamic model for Pr 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O and Nd 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O in the mixtures of HNO 3 and H 2 C 2 O 4 to high ionic strengths. The model for Pr 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O reproduces well the reported experimental data for Pu 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O, which are not utilized for the model development, demonstrating that Pr(III) is an excellent analog for Pu(III). Similarly, the model for Nd 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O reproduces the solubility of Am 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O and Cm 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O. The Pitzer model was used for the calculation of activity coefficients. Based on the published, well established model for dissociation constants for oxalic acid and stability constants for actinide-oxalate complexes [i.e., AmC 2 O 4 + , and Am(C 2 O 4 ) 2 - ] to high ionic strengths, we have obtained the solubility constants (log 10 K 0 ) for the following reactions at 25 °C, Pr 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O ⇌ 2Pr 3+ + 3C 2 O 4 2- + 10H 2 O(l). Nd 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O ⇌ 2Nd 3+ + 3C 2 O 4 2- + 10H 2 O(l). to be -30.82 ± 0.30 (2σ), and - 31.14 ± 0.35 (2σ), respectively. These values for can be directly applied to Pu 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O, Am 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O and Cm 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O. The model established for actinide oxalates by this study provides the needed knowledge with regard to solubilities of actinide/REE oxalates at various ionic strengths, and is expected to find applications in many fields, including the geological disposal of nuclear waste and the mobility of REE under the surface conditions, as Pr 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O and Nd 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O can be regarded as the pure Pr and Nd end-members of deveroite, a recently discovered natural REE oxalate with the following stoichiometry, (Ce 1.01 Nd 0.33 La 0.32 Pr 0.11 Y 0.11 Sm 0.01 Pb 0.04 U 0.03 Th 0.01 Ca 0.04 ) 2.01 (C 2 O 4 ) 2.99 •9.99H 2 O. Regarding its importance in the geological disposal of nuclear waste, Am 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O/Pu 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O/Cm 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O can be the source-term phase for actinides, as demonstrated by the instance in the disposal in clay/shale formations. This is exemplified by the stability of Am 2 (C 2 O 4 ) 3 •10H 2 O in comparison with Am(OH) 3 (am), Am(OH) 3 (s) and AmCO 3 (OH)(s) under the relevant geological repository conditions.

Microscopic Mechanisms of Superionic Na-ion Conductivity in Crystalline and Amorphous NaMOCl 4 (M = Nb, Ta) Solid Electrolytes

Sodium-ion solid electrolytes offer a sustainable route toward next-generation batteries, but few match the performance of their lithium counterparts. Halide-based NaMOCl 4 (M = Nb, Ta) has recently emerged as a promising analogue to LiMOCl 4 , yet its structure–transport relationships remain unclear due to poor crystallinity in experiments. Here, we combine density functional theory and machine-learned molecular dynamics to reveal that crystalline NaMOCl 4 exhibits negligible room-temperature conductivity with high activation barriers arising from vacancy-mediated diffusion below an order–disorder transition. Above this transition, rotational and translational motion of the [MO 2/2 Cl 4 – ] ∞ chains create new Na sites and enhances transport. In contrast, the amorphous phase inherently supports facile, three-dimensional Na diffusion through dynamic framework flexibility. These results show that ordered crystalline phases hinder ionic transport, while disorder – either thermally induced or structural – facilitates it, revising prior assumptions from the Li system and providing design principles for high-conductivity Na halide electrolytes.

Reprocessable and Recyclable Polymer Network Electrolytes via Incorporation of Dynamic Covalent Bonds

Mechanically durable polymer network electrolytes are desirable for batteries; however, covalent cross-linking adversely affects their large-scale manufacturing, and they are difficult to recycle post-lifespan. In this work, we address the electrolyte reprocessability and recyclability challenges through the use of dynamic covalent bonds for polymer network solid electrolytes. Specifically, the associative dynamic vinylogous urethane motif is incorporated into a poly(ethylene oxide) network electrolyte containing lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) salt. The resulting dynamic covalent network electrolyte possesses a modest ion conductivity (~10–5 S/cm at room temperature) and good reprocessability. Stress–relaxation studies indicate that the LiFSI salt can catalyze the bond exchange and enhance the network dynamics. Furthermore, the reprocessability associated with bond exchange can be tuned by simply adjusting the formulation of reagent compositions, in which increasing the amount of excess amine or using a shorter chain of PEO prepolymer can further enhance the network dynamics and corresponding reprocessability.

Metal–insulator transition tuned by oxygen vacancy migration across TiO2/VO2 interface

Abstract Oxygen defects are essential building blocks for designing functional oxides with remarkable properties, ranging from electrical and ionic conductivity to magnetism and ferroelectricity. Oxygen defects, despite being spatially localized, can profoundly alter global properties such as the crystal symmetry and electronic structure, thereby enabling emergent phenomena. In this work, we achieved tunable metal–insulator transitions (MIT) in oxide heterostructures by inducing interfacial oxygen vacancy migration. We chose the non-stoichiometric VO 2-δ as a model system due to its near room temperature MIT temperature. We found that depositing a TiO 2 capping layer on an epitaxial VO 2 thin film can effectively reduce the resistance of the insulating phase in VO 2 , yielding a significantly reduced R OFF /R ON ratio. We systematically studied the TiO 2 /VO 2 heterostructures by structural and transport measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and ab initio calculations and found that oxygen vacancy migration from TiO 2 to VO 2 is responsible for the suppression of the MIT. Our findings underscore the importance of the interfacial oxygen vacancy migration and redistribution in controlling the electronic structure and emergent functionality of the heterostructure, thereby providing a new approach to designing oxide heterostructures for novel ionotronics and neuromorphic-computing devices.

Thermal transport in phase-stabilized lithium zirconate phosphates

The thermal properties of yttrium-stabilized lithium zirconate phosphate [LZP: Li 1+x+y Y x Zr 2-x (PO 4 ) 3 with x = 0.15, -0.2 ≤ y ≤ 0.4 and with x = 0.0, y = 0.0] are presented over a wide temperature range from 30 to 973 K, elucidating the interplay between structural phase transformations and thermal properties in a solid state superionic conducting material. At room temperature, the thermal conductivity decreases by more than 75% as the stoichiometry is changed from lithium deficient to excess and increases with increasing temperature, indicative of defect-mediated transport in the spark plasma sintered materials. The phase transformations and their stabilities are examined by x-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry and indicate that the Y3 + substitution of Zr 4+ is effective in stabilizing the ionically conductive rhombohedral phase over the entire temperature range measured, the mechanism of which is found through ab initio theoretical calculations. Finally, these insights into thermal transport of LZP superionic conductors are valuable as they may be generally applicable for predicting material stability and thermal management in the ceramic electrolyte of future all-solid-state-battery devices.

Insulators for Pb(1-x)Sn(x)Te

Thin films of LaF3 were e-gun and thermally deposited on several substrates. The e-gun deposited films are fluorine deficient, have high ionic conductivities that persist to 77 K, and high effective dielectric constants. The thermally deposited material tends to be closer to stoichiometric, and have higher effective breakdown field strengths. Thermally deposited LaF3 films with resistivities in excess of 10 to the 12th power ohms - cm were deposited on metal coated glass substrates. The LaF3 films were shown to adhere well to PbSnTe, surviving repeated cycles between room temperature and 77 K. The LaF3 films on GaAs were also studied.

Design and Synthesis of Cubic K 3−2 x Ba x SbSe 4 Solid Electrolytes for K–O 2 Batteries

Developing K-ion conducting solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) plays a critical role in the safe implementation of potassium batteries. In this work, a chalcogenide-based potassium ion SSE is reported, K 3 SbSe 4 , which adopts a trigonal structure at room temperature. Single-crystal structural analysis reveals a trigonal-to-cubic phase transition at the low temperature of 50 °C, which is the lowest among similar compounds and thus provides easy access to the cubic phase. The substitution of barium for potassium in K 3 SbSe 4 leads to the creation of potassium vacancies, expansion of lattice parameters, and a transformation from a trigonal phase to a cubic phase. As a result, the maximum conductivity of K 3−2x Ba x SbSe 4 reaches around 0.1 mS cm −1 at 40 °C for K 2.2 Ba 0.4 SbSe 4 , which is over two orders of magnitude higher than that of undoped K 3 SbSe 4 . This novel SSE is successfully employed in a K–O 2 battery operating at room temperature where a polymer-laminated K 2.2 Ba 0.4 SbSe 4 pellet serves as a separator between the oxygen cathode and the potassium metal anode. Effective protection of the K metal anode against corrosion caused by O 2 is demonstrated.

A stable cathode-solid electrolyte composite for high-voltage, long-cycle-life solid-state sodium-ion batteries

Rechargeable solid-state sodium-ion batteries (SSSBs) hold great promise for safer and more energy-dense energy storage. However, the poor electrochemical stability between current sulfide-based solid electrolytes and high-voltage oxide cathodes has limited their long-term cycling performance and practicality. Here, we report the discovery of the ion conductor Na 3-x Y 1-x Zr x Cl 6 (NYZC) that is both electrochemically stable (up to 3.8 V vs. Na/Na + ) and chemically compatible with oxide cathodes. Its high ionic conductivity of 6.6 × 10 –5 S cm –1 at ambient temperature, several orders of magnitude higher than oxide coatings, is attributed to abundant Na vacancies and cooperative MCl 6 rotation, resulting in an extremely low interfacial impedance. A SSSB comprising a NaCrO 2 + NYZC composite cathode, Na 3 PS 4 electrolyte, and Na-Sn anode exhibits an exceptional first-cycle Coulombic efficiency of 97.1% at room emperature and can cycle over 1000 cycles with 89.3% capacity retention at 40 °C. These findings highlight the immense potential of halides for SSSB applications.

Self-Passivating Lithium/Solid Electrolyte/Iodine Cells

Robust lithium/solid electrolyte/iodine electrochemical cells that offer significant advantages over commercial lithium/ iodine cells have been developed. At room temperature, these cells can be discharged at current densities 10 to 30 times those of commercial lithium/iodine cells. Moreover, from room temperature up to 80 C, the maximum discharge-current densities of these cells exceed those of all other solid-electrolyte-based cells. A cell of this type includes a metallic lithium anode in contact with a commercial flexible solid electrolyte film that, in turn, is in contact with an iodine/ graphite cathode. The solid electrolyte (the chemical composition of which has not been reported) offers the high ionic conductivity needed for high cell performance. However, the solid electrolyte exhibits an undesirable chemical reactivity to lithium that, if not mitigated, would render the solid electrolyte unsuitable for use in a lithium cell. In this cell, such mitigation is affected by the formation of a thin passivating layer of lithium iodide at the anode/electrolyte interface. Test cells of this type were fabricated from iodine/graphite cathode pellets, free-standing solid-electrolyte films, and lithium-foil anodes. The cathode mixtures were made by grinding together blends of nominally 10 weight percent graphite and 90 weight percent iodine. The cathode mixtures were then pressed into pellets at 36 kpsi (248 MPa) and inserted into coin-shaped stainless-steel cell cases that were coated with graphite paste to minimize corrosion. The solid-electrolyte film material was stamped to form circular pieces to fit in the coin cell cases, inserted in the cases, and pressed against the cathode pellets with polyethylene gaskets. Lithium-foil anodes were placed directly onto the electrolyte films. The layers described thus far were pressed and held together by stainless- steel shims, wave springs, and coin cell caps. The assembled cells were then crimped to form hermetic seals. It was found that the solid electrolyte films became discolored within seconds after they were placed in contact with the cathodes - a result of facile diffusion of iodine through the solid electrolyte material (see figure).

Composite Membrane for Sodium Polysulfide Hybrid Redox Flow Batteries

Non-aqueous redox flow batteries (NARFBs) using earth-abundant materials, such as sodium and sulfur, are promising long-duration energy storage technologies. NARFBs utilize organic solvents, which enable higher operating voltages and potentially higher energy densities compared with their aqueous counterparts. Despite exciting progress throughout the past decade, the lack of low-cost membranes with adequate ionic conductivity and selectivity remains as one of the major bottlenecks of NARFBs. Here, we developed a composite membrane composed of a thin (<25 µm) Na+-Nafion coating on a porous polypropylene scaffold. The composite membrane significantly improves the electrochemical stability of Na + -Nafion against sodium metal, exhibiting stable Na symmetric cell performance for over 2300 h, while Na + -Nafion shorted by 445 h. Additionally, the composite membrane demonstrates a higher room temperature storage modulus than the porous polypropylene scaffold and Na + -Nafion separately while maintaining high Na + conductivity (0.24 mS/cm at 20 °C). Our method shows that a composite membrane utilizing Na + -Nafion is a promising approach for sodium-based hybrid redox flow batteries.

Machine-Learning-Guided Insights into Solid-Electrolyte Interphase Conductivity: Are Amorphous Lithium Fluorophosphates the Key?

Despite decades of study, the identity of the dominant Li + -conducting phase within the inorganic SEI of Li-ion batteries remains unresolved. While the mosaic model describes LiF/Li 2 O/Li 2 CO 3 nanocrystallites within a disordered matrix, these crystalline phases inherently offer limited ionic conductivity. Growing evidence suggests that interfaces, grain boundaries, and amorphous phases may instead host the primary fast-ion pathways. Using diffusion-based generative structure prediction and machine-learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs), we investigate lithium difluorophosphate (LiPO 2 F 2 ), a key mixed-anion decomposition product of phosphorus- and fluorine-containing electrolytes. We identify a stable crystalline polymorph and demonstrate that the amorphous counterpart is conductive, with projected room-temperature σ ≈ 0.18 mS cm –1 and E a ≈ 0.40 eV. Here, this enhancement stems from structural disorder flattening the Li site-energy landscape and a low formation energy for Li-interstitial defects, which supplies additional mobile carriers. We propose amorphous mixed-anion Li-P-O-F phases as a promising conducting medium in the SEI, offering a specific target for engineering improved battery interfaces.

Low-temperature paddlewheel effect in glassy solid electrolytes

Glasses are promising electrolytes for use in solid-state batteries. Nevertheless, due to their amorphous structure, the mechanisms that underlie their ionic conductivity remain poorly understood. Here, ab initio molecular dynamics is used to characterize migration processes in the prototype glass, 75Li2S–25P2S5. Lithium migration occurs via a mechanism that combines concerted motion of lithium ions with large, quasi-permanent reorientations of PS4 3- anions. This latter effect, known as the ‘paddlewheel’ mechanism, is typically observed in high temperature crystalline polymorphs. In contrast to the behavior of crystalline materials, in the glass paddlewheel dynamics contribute to Lithium-ion mobility at room temperature. Paddlewheel contributions are confirmed by characterizing spatial, temporal, vibrational, and energetic correlations with Lithium motion. Furthermore, the dynamics in the glass differ from those in the stable crystalline analogue, γ-Li3PS4, where anion reorientations are negligible and ion mobility is reduced. These data imply that glasses containing complex anions, and in which covalent network formation is minimized, may exhibit paddlewheel dynamics at low temperature. Consequently, these systems may be fertile ground in the search for new solid electrolytes.

Atomic layer deposited aluminum nitride for interface protection of lithium germanium thiophosphate solid electrolytes

Lithium germanium thiophosphate (LGPS) is an attractive solid-state electrolyte material due to its exceptionally high ionic conductivity (~1.2 × 10 –2 S cm –1 ), comparable to many organic liquid electrolytes commonly used in batteries. Despite the high conductivity of LGPS, the susceptibility of LGPS to deleterious degradation reactions has impeded its commercial adoption into solid-state batteries. In particular, the poor voltage stability of LGPS with high-voltage cathode or lithium metal potentials often results in dramatically increasing cell impedance during galvanic cycling. Here, we use aluminum nitride (AlN) as a protection layer for Li metal anode, applied directly to the LGPS at 250 °C using plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition, to enhance cell performance by preventing LGPS-Li metal reactions. We compare the surface chemistry and electrochemical cycling performance of atomic layer-deposited AlN grown using both plasma N 2 and NH 3 precursors. Galvanostatic cycling and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy show that AlN-coated LGPS cells perform better than bare LGPS cells in contact with Li metal anodes, with the AlN able to improve cycling longevity by over a factor of 3 in certain cases. Finally, we utilize x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) line scans to highlight the slow room-temperature reactivity between AlN and evaporated lithium metal, and a computational model is built to aid further XPS analysis.

Efficient Construction of a C 60 Interlayer for Mechanically Robust, Dendrite-free, and Ultrastable Solid-State Batteries

Interfacial instability between solid electrolytes (SEs) and lithium metal remains a daunting challenge for solid-sate batteries. Here, a conformal C 60 interlayer is efficiently constructed on Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP) SEs by physical vapor deposition, and an ideal interfacial contact is achieved via forming an ionically conducting matrix of LixC60 with lithium metal. The obtained Li x C 60 is beneficial to hinder the growth of lithium dendrites at interface and release the local stress during the lithiation and delithiation. As a result, the Li/LAGP-C 60 /Li symmetric cells demonstrate ultra-stable cycling performance for more than 4,500 h at a current density of 0.034 mA cm -2 . The Li/LAGP-C 60 /LiFePO 4 full cells deliver a reversible capacity of 152.4 mAh g -1 at room temperature, and the capacity retention rate is 85% after more than 100 cycles. This work provides a feasible and scalable strategy to improve the SEs/Li interface for high-performance solid-state batteries.
