添加剂对SiO电性能的影响及其机理分析

SiO_x/CoO and SiO/Li₂CO₃ composite materials were prepared by mechanical ball-milling. The structures of the obtained materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). And scanning electron microscopes (SEM) of three samples after 20 cycles were also given. In addition， the electrochemical performances of three materials with galvanostatic charge-discharge cycling were investigated. The results show that the composite samples have larger initial reversible capacities and better cycle performance than pure SiO. Also，a schematic diagram showing the buffer effects of Li₂CO₃ addition and the mechanism of improving electrochemical performance by adding Li₂CO₃ are suggested.     

Surface film formation on a graphite electrode in Li‐ion batteries: AFM and XPS study

The formation of a passivation film (solid electrolyte interphase, SEI) at the surface of the negative electrode of full LiCoO₂/graphite lithium‐ion cells using LiPF₆ (1M ) in carbonate solvents as electrolyte was investigated by means of x‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The analyses were carried out at different potentials of the first and the fifth cycles, showing the potential‐dependent character of the surface‐film species formation. These species were mainly identified as Li₂CO₃ up to 3.8 V and LiF up to 4.2 V. This study shows the formation of the SEI during charging and its partial dissolution during discharge.

一维棒状ZnO的制备及电化学嵌锂性能研究

目前,商业化锂离子电池一般采用石墨作为负极材料,因其电位与金属锂电极的电位很接近,所以当电池反复循环和过充时,石墨表面易析出金属锂,会因形成枝晶而短路。在温度过高时还容易引起热失控。同时,锂离子电池的容量在很大程度上取决于负极的锂嵌入量,而且石墨材料容量相对较低     

Synthesis and electrochemical properties of yttrium-doped LiMn<Subscript>0.98</Subscript>Y<Subscript>0.02</Subscript>O<Subscript>2</Subscript> for lithium secondary batteries

Yttrium-doped lithium manganese oxide (LiMn_0.98Y_0.02O₂) was prepared by ion exchange of lithium for sodium in NaMn_0.98Y_0.02O₂ precursors obtained by using rheological phase reaction method. This material had small particle size, which was composed of grain size of about 100 nm. Especially, LiMn_0.98Y_0.02O₂ delivered the initial discharge capacity of about 191 mA h g⁻¹ at room temperature when cycled between 2.0 and 4.4 V vs Li/Li⁺. Moreover, it showed an excellent cycling behavior, its specific capacity remained above 173 mA h g⁻¹ after 20 cycles, and the material did not transform into spinel structure during the electrochemical cycling according to the cyclic voltammograms and X-ray powder diffraction. The electrochemical results revealed that the doping of Y³⁺ improved the performance of LiMnO₂ considerably.

Cathodic materials for lithium-ion batteries based on spinels Li x Mn2−y Me y O4: Synthesis, phase composition, and structure of Li x Mn2−y Cr y O4 at x = 1.0−1.2 and y = 0−0.5

Extralithiated chromium-doped finely divided lithium-manganese spinels are synthesized as a result of a two-step solid-phase process with use made of the fusion-saturation method. The spinels are intended for application as cathodic materials in lithium-ion batteries. The phase composition and structural characteristics of samples of cathodic materials of the type Li _x Mn_2?y Cr _y O₄ are studied. The samples with x = 1.0?1.2 and y = 0?0.5 are characterized by phase purity and cubic syngony with parameter a = 0.817?0.823 nm and a disperseness equal to 1–2 nm. The maximum content of chromium and lithium in Li _x Mn_2?y Cr _y O₄ that does not lead to violation of cubic syngony is determined. Lithium excess in the cathodic material that does not exceed 0.2 formula units may be used for compensating the irreversible capacity. Replacing some manganese atoms by chromium may facilitate retention of the structures’s integrity in the course of cycling.

Advanced Current Collectors for Alkali Metal Anodes

High-energy-density batteries are in urgent need to solve the ever-increasing energy storage demand for portable electronic devices, electric vehicles, and renewable solar and wind energy systems. Alkali metals, typically lithium(Li), sodium(Na) and potassium(K), are considered as the promising anode materials owing to their low electrochemical potential, low density, and high theoretical gravimetric capacities. However, the problem of dendrite growth of alkali metals during their plating/stripping process will lead to low Coulombic efficiencies, a short lifespan and huge volume expansion, eventually hindering their practical commercialization. To resolve this issue, a very effective approach is engineering the anodes on structured current collectors. This review summarizes the development of the alkali metal batteries and discusses the recent advances in rational design of anode current collectors. First, the challenges and strategies of suppressing alkali-metal dendrite growth are presented. Then the special attention is paid to the novel current collector design for dendrite-free alkali metal anodes. Finally, we give conclusions and perspective on the current challenges and future research directions toward advanced anode current collectors for alkali metal batteries.
