Synthetic Accessibility and Sodium Ion Conductivity of the Na8–x A x P2O9 (NAP) High-Temperature Sodium Superionic Conductor Framework

Advancement of solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) for all solid-state batteries typically focuses on modification of a known structural framework to improve conductivity, e.g., cation substitution for an immobile ion or varying the concentration of the mobile ions. Novel frameworks can be disruptive by enabling fast ion conduction aided by different structure and diffusion mechanisms, thereby unlocking optimal conductors with different properties. Herein, we perform a high-throughput survey of a structural framework for sodium ion conduction, Na8–x A x P2O9 (NAP), to understand the family’s thermodynamic stability, synthesizability, and ionic conduction. We show that the parent phase Na4TiP2O9 (NTP) undergoes a structural distortion (with accompanying conductivity transition) due to unstable phonons arising from pseudo-Jahn–Teller mode in the 1D titanium chains. Screening compounds in which Ti is substituted by other metals computationally reveal a number of candidates that are predicted to be low in formation energy and have high predicted ionic conductivities. High-throughput experimental and subsequent methodology optimization trials deliver one new compound, Na4SnP2O9 (NSP). X-ray diffraction (XRD), microscopy, and spectroscopy characterization indicate that the room-temperature structure of NSP is similar to the high-temperature, orthorhombic NTP phase but with some small unresolved structural differences. These uncharacterized structural details are speculated to limit the ion conductivity. Temperature-dependent XRD and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy indicate multiple coupled conductivity–structure transitions at a high temperature. We demonstrate the challenges with synthesis development and a priori identification of promising SSE phases as a major bottleneck in new (energy) materials development.
