Quantitative spatially resolved <i>post-mortem</i> analysis of lithium distribution and transition metal depositions on cycled electrodes <i>via</i> a laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry method
摘要: Diminishing the loss of performance of lithium ion batteries (LIBs) is a challenge that is yet to be ful?lled. Understanding of deterioration processes and mechanisms (i.e., so-called aging) requires analytically accurate examination of aged cells. Changes in the distribution of lithium or transition metals in the LIB cells can in?uence their cycle and calendar life signi?cantly. As electrochemically treated cells and especially their electrodes do not age homogeneously and the local electrochemistry (e.g. deposition patterns) is strongly dependent on surface properties, bulk analysis is not a satisfactory investigation method. Therefore, a surface sensitive method, namely laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (LA-ICP-OES) is presented. LIB cells with lithium metal oxide LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 (NCM111) as cathode material and graphite as anode material are investigated using a 213 nm Nd:YAG laser.

Interfacial Lattice‐Strain‐Driven Generation of Oxygen Vacancies in an Aerobic‐Annealed TiO <sub/>2</sub> (B) Electrode
摘要: Oxygen vacancies play crucial roles in defining physical and chemical properties of materials to enhance the performances in electronics, solar cells, catalysis, sensors, and energy conversion and storage. Conventional approaches to incorporate oxygen defects mainly rely on reducing the oxygen partial pressure for the removal of product to change the equilibrium position. However, directly affecting reactants to shift the reaction toward generating oxygen vacancies is lacking and to fill this blank in synthetic methodology is very challenging. Here, a strategy is demonstrated to create oxygen vacancies through making the reaction energetically more favorable via applying interfacial strain on reactants by coating, using TiO2(B) as a model system. Geometrical phase analysis and density functional theory simulations verify that the formation energy of oxygen vacancies is largely decreased under external strain. Benefiting from these, the obtained oxygen-deficient TiO2(B) exhibits impressively high level of capacitive charge storage, e.g., ≈53% at 0.5 mV s?1, far surpassing the ≈31% of the unmodified counterpart. Meanwhile, the modified electrode shows significantly enhanced rate capability delivering a capacity of 112 mAh g?1 at 20 C (≈6.7 A g?1), ≈30% higher than air-annealed TiO2 and comparable to vacuum-calcined TiO2. This work heralds a new paradigm of mechanical manipulation of materials through interfacial control for rational defect engineering.

Mechanistic insights into the phenomena of increasing capacity with cycle number: using pulsed-laser deposited MoO <sub/>2</sub> thin film electrodes
摘要: Lithium ion batteries typically lose capacity or energy storage density (i.e. capacity fading) over the course of extended cycling which can be problematic for applications and appears to be exaggerated when high current rates are used. However, in some cases fluctuations in capacity with cycle number and even increases in capacity with cycle number are noted with predominantly thin film based electrodes. Here we demonstrate the synthesis and in-depth characterisation of laser deposited MoO2 thin film anodes and its unconventional mechanism. A MoO2 electrode shows an initial capacity of 79 mA h g?1 which increases to capacities of 600 mA h g?1 at 15.8 A g?1 after 90 000 cycles. A maximum capacity of 1714 mA h g?1 was achieved in an electrode cycled at 1.5 A g?1 for over 3800 cycles, the highest recorded capacity in MoOx anodes to date. The most intriguing aspects of this work is the fact that capacity is shown to fluctuate and typically increase well above the theoretical capacity of MoO2. A combination of electrochemical cycling, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, focused ion beam milling and transmission electron microscopy at various states of cycling is used to illustrate a proposed mechanism. The mechanism illustrated is based on exfoliation of layers of MoO2 off the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) grown MoO2 electrodes during cycling that creates additional surface area and easier access for Li-ions to both adsorb to the surface and insert/react with the host material. Further features in the capacity evolution are rationalised by this mechanism and methods to control the capacity evolution are detailed. These results present a rational explanation for when an electrode undergoes a substantial increase in capacity over its extended cycling life.

Facile fabrication of hierarchical micro-meso-macro porous metal oxide with high photochemical and electrochemical performances
摘要: A feasible route with a dual-templating method including both ice and SiO2 hard templates to fabricate hierarchical porous TiO2 with micro-, meso-, and macro-pores from inorganic/organic metal oxo cluster precursors is proposed. As-prepared TiO2 shows high photocatalytic activity and excellent electrochemical performances. The current strategy can be applied to fabrication of a broad range of metal oxide materials for catalysis and energy related applications.

Robust Pitch on Silicon Nanolayer-Embedded Graphite for Suppressing Undesirable Volume Expansion
摘要: A significant volume expansion exhibited by high-capacity active materials upon lithiation has hindered their application as Li-ion battery anode materials. Although tremendous progress has been made in the development of coating methods that improve the stability of high-capacity active materials, suitable coating sources that are both strong and economical to use are yet to be discovered. Pitch is reported here as a promising coating source for high-capacity anodes owing to the high mechanical strength and low-cost process. Using in situ transmission electron microscopy, it is found that pitch can withstand the severe volume expansion that occurs upon Si lithiation owing to its high mechanical strength, originating from the long-range graphitic ordering. Notably, pitch-coated silicon nanolayer–embedded graphite (SG) exhibits superior capacity retention (81.9%) compared to that of acetylene-coated SG (66%) over 200 cycles in a full-cell by effectively mitigating volume expansion, even under industrial electrode density conditions (1.6 g cc?1). Thus, this work presents new possibilities for the development of high-capacity anodes for industrial implementation.

Preparation and Performance of Porous Polymer Electrolytes Doped with Nano-Al <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>3</sub>
摘要: Porous polymer electrolytes (PPEs) doped with nano-Al2O3 were prepared by a joint application of ultrasonic treatment and control evaporation in vacuum oven. The morphology, pore size distribution, thermal, electrochemical and mechanical properties of the PPEs were investigated. The porosity distribution of PPEs was uniform and their pore size was relatively modest. The total resistance (R t) of PPEs with 10% Al2O3 is only 9 Ω at 80 °C. The maximum tensile strength of the PPEs membranes reached to 24.43 MPa. The results show that nano-Al2O3 can improve the comprehensive performance of PPEs without compromising their conductivity and diplayed the good application prospects of Al2O3-modi?ed PPEs for lithium-ion batteries.

Electrochromic effect of indium tin oxide in lithium iron phosphate battery cathodes for state of charge determination
摘要: In this paper, we discuss the origin of an optical effect in lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery cathodes, which depends on the electrical charge transferred into the battery. Utilizing indium tin oxide (ITO) as an electrode additive, we were able to observe a change in reflectivity of the cathode during charging and discharging with lithiation and delithiation being clearly visible in the form of lithiation fronts. Further investigations using in situ video microscopy and in situ Raman spectroscopy on test cells with an optical window indicates that ITO additionally acts as an electrochromic marker within the LFP cathode. This enhances the optical effect due to local potentials around the lithiation fronts, which enables the voltage-dependent reflectivity of the ITO to be visible in the LFP cathode. Structural analysis with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray crystallography (XRD) are presented as well. The observed effect allows for novel battery research methods and for a possible commercial application as a sensor for state of charge (SOC) estimation similar to the optical fiber approach reported by Ghannoum et al. for a graphite anode.

Effect of Bad Connection on Surface Temperature of Lithium-Ion Batteries by Using Infrared Thermography
摘要: The temperature distribution of lithium-ion batteries in the electric vehicle is very important for the electric vehicle performance. Heat is produced during lithium-ion batteries operation while being charged and discharged. The battery can in worst case go into thermal runaway if the heat cannot be dissipated rapidly. This experimental investigation analysis the thermal behaviour of a 13Ah pouch type lithium-ion battery through characterisation and determination of the evolution of surface temperature distribution and profiles when there is a bad connection in the positive tab. Infrared thermography and contact thermocouples were employed for a commercial cell thermal analysis. Different types of load profiles were applied to the battery cell. The loads consisted of constant current charge and discharge cycles with currents magnitude of 13A, 26A, 39A and 52A.It was concluded that bad connection increased the non-uniformity of surface temperature and risk of thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries.

Estudo das propriedades ópticas de vidros borosilicatos dopados com íons de Itérbio em fun??o da concentra??o
摘要: Rare Earth elements have been studied for different scientific areas due to its excellent spectroscopic and magnetic properties with possible application for construction of different optical and electric devices (MARTINS, 2005; LOUREN?O et al., 2011). In this work, it is studied the optical properties of Ytterbium (Yb3+) ions embedded in a lead-borosilicate glass matrix synthesized by the melting method, using the optical absorption and photoluminescence techniques. The Yb3+ ions were chosen to dope the glass matrix because it has an energy level scheme more simplified compared with other Rare-Earth ions, with only two energy levels, making it very attractive for the construction of high efficiency optical devices. Increasing the annealing temperature as well as the ion concentration in the matrix leads to a shift of the optical band gap of the matrix to higher energies. We believe that this shift (blue-shift) can be associated with the nanocrystallization process of the glass matrix SBP (SiO2, B2O3, PbO2). The reduction of radiative lifetime with increasing ion concentration in matrix was studied using the Stokowski empirical relation, in which, it studies processes of energy transfer as a function of Rare-Earth concentration.
