Materials Data on LiV3O8 by Materials Project

LiV3O8 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent VO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent VO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 60°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.19 Å. There are three inequivalent V5+ sites. In the first V5+ site, V5+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–2.14 Å. In the second V5+ site, V5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted VO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent VO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one VO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.68–2.26 Å. In the third V5+ site, V5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form VO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one VO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent VO4 tetrahedra, and corners with three equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.67–1.89 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one V5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Li1+ and one V5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to three V5+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three V5+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Li1+ and one V5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+ and two equivalent V5+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two V5+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two V5+ atoms.

Correlative electron and ion beam analysis of the electrochemical performances of LiV 3 O 8 cathode films as a function of microstructures

Degradation mechanisms in LiV 3 O 8 cathode films (~500 nm) with different initial microstructures i.e., globular nanocrystals in amorphous matrix and needle-like nanocrystals, synthesized by annealing the cathodes at 150 °C and 300 °C for 6 h are studied by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). In addition, a unique in-situ combination of TEM and Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) imaging techniques, namely Parallel Ion and Electron beam Spectrometry (PIES) is carried out to measure the 3D distribution of V and Li with nanoscale resolution. These characterization studies focus on correlating the pre- and post-cycling microstructure to observed electrochemical performance. The LiV 3 O 8 cathode film with needle-like nanocrystals (300 °C) shows a higher initial capacity but it degrades rapidly compared to the film with globular nanocrystals embedded in amorphous matrix (150 °C). We observed that LiV 3 O 8 films with needle-like nanocrystals are more susceptible to cathode decohesion and vanadium dissolution than the films with globular nanocrystals embedded in amorphous matrix, explaining the differences in their electrochemical performance. The findings from this study have relevance to the development of thin film electrode microstructures for high capacity and cyclic stability.
