With the most recent development of ultrahigh capacity anodes, such as Li‐ or Si‐based anodes, metal fluorides hold promise as complementary high‐capacity conversion cathode materials for next‐generation energy storage devices. Despite their higher theoretical energy density compared to cells with sulfur cathodes, these materials have received dramatically less attention and little is understood about the origins of their electrochemical behavior. Here, the successful methodology to produce highly uniform size‐controlled mixed metal difluoride nanocomposites is reported. It is discovered that such materials undergo reduction in a single step with a reduction potential intermediate to those for the corresponding single‐metal difluorides and that a solid solution is reformed upon charging, which is advantageous for practical applications. For the first time the progressive formation of metal trifluorides upon repeated cycling of difluorides is reported. Systematic electrochemical measurements in combination with postmortem analyses lead to the conclusion that the cathode stability strongly depends on the ability to prevent formation and growth of a resistive cathode solid electrolyte interphase, which, in turn, strongly depends on the metal composition. This methodology and new findings will help to elucidate a path to developing metal fluoride–based commercial Li‐ion batteries and provide guidelines for material selection.  相似文献

An industry‐relevant method for pre‐lithiation of lithium‐ion capacitors to balance the first charge irreversibility is demonstrated, which addresses the prime bottleneck for their market integration. Based on a composite positive electrode that integrates pyrene monomers and an insoluble lithiated base, Li3PO4, a “cascade‐type” process involving two consecutive irreversible reactions is proposed: i) oxidative electropolymerization of the pyrene moieties releases electrons and protons; ii) protons are captured by Li3PO4 and exchanged for a stoichiometric amount of Li+ into the electrolyte. (1H, 19F, and 31P) NMR spectroscopy, operando X‐ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy support this mechanism. By decoupling the irreversible source of lithium ions from electrons, the cascade‐type pre‐lithiation allows the simultaneous enhancement of the capacity of the positive electrode, thanks to p‐doping of the resulting polymer. Remarkably, the proton scavenging properties of Li3PO4 also boost the polymerization process, which enables a 16% increase in capacity without detrimental effect on power properties and cyclability. Full cells integrating a cheap carbon black based negative electrode, show much‐improved capacity of 17 mAh g‐1electrodes (44 F g‐1electrodes, 3–4.4 V) and excellent stability over 2200 cycles at 1 A g‐1. Thanks to its versatile chemistry and flexibility this approach in principle can be applied to any kind of ion‐battery.  相似文献

Aqueous lithium ion batteries (ALIBs) exhibit great potential to reduce the cost and improve the safety of rechargeable energy storage technologies. Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathodes have become a material of choice for many conventional, high power LIBs. However, experimental studies on LFP in aqueous lithium (Li) ion electrolytes are limited. Here, results of systematic studies are shown where it is demonstrated that the Li salt concentration of the aqueous electrolyte can significantly improve discharge capacity retention while minimally impacting rate capability, for electrodes made with a typical commercial sub‐micron sized LFP powder. Based on the postmortem analysis and the results of electrochemical characterization it is proposed that undesirable side reactions of aqueous electrolytes with LFP induce electrochemical separation of individual particles within the electrode, leading to the observed capacity fading. Increasing the salt concentration in aqueous solutions effectively reduces the concentration of water molecules in the electrolyte, which are mostly responsible for these undesirable side reactions. Similar trends observed with other cathode materials suggest that the use of concentrated aqueous electrolyte solutions offers an effective route to improve stability of aqueous Li ion batteries.  相似文献

Energy storage devices are arousing increasing interest due to their key role in next‐generation electronics. Integration is widely explored as a general and effective strategy aiming at high performances. Recent progress in integrating a variety of functions into electrochemical energy storage devices is carefully described. Through integration at the level of materials: flexible, stretchable, responsive, and self‐healing devices are discussed to highlight the state‐of‐the‐art multi‐functional electronics. Through the integration at the level of devices, the incorporation of photovoltaic and piezoelectric devices is detailed to reflect the advances in self‐powering electronics. Integrated energy storage devices are presented for wearable applications to indicate a new growth direction. The main challenges and important directions are summarized to offer some useful clues for future development.  相似文献

Ionogels are considered promising electrolytes for safe lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) because of their low flammability, good thermal stability, and wide electrochemical stability window. Conventional ionic liquid‐based ionogels, however, face two main challenges; poor mechanical property and low Li‐ion transfer number. In this work, a novel solvate ionogel electrolyte (SIGE) based on an organic–inorganic double network (DN) is designed and fabricated through nonhydrolytic sol–gel reaction and in situ polymerization processes. The unprecedented SIGE possesses high toughness (bearing the deformation under the pressure of 80 MPa without damage), high Li‐ion transfer number of 0.43, and excellent Li‐metal compatibility. As expected, the LiFePO4/Li cell using the newly developed SIGE delivers a high capacity retention of 95.2% over 500 cycles, and the average Coulombic efficiency is as high as 99.8%. Moreover, the Ni‐rich LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811)/Li cell based on the modified SIGE achieves a high Coulombic efficiency of 99.4%, which outperforms previous solid/quasi‐solid‐state NCM811‐based LIBs. Interestingly, the SIGE‐based pouch cells are workable under extreme conditions (e.g., severely deforming or clipping into segments). In terms of those unusual features, the as‐obtained SIGE holds great promise for next‐generation flexible and safe energy‐storage devices.  相似文献

As an alternative to commercial Ni‐ and Co‐based intercalation‐type cathode materials, conversion‐type metal fluoride (MFx) cathodes are attracting more interest due to their promises to increase cell‐level energy density when coupled with lithium (Li) or silicon (Si)‐based anodes. Among metal fluorides, iron fluorides (FeF2 and FeF3) are regarded as some of the most promising candidates due to their high capacity, moderately high potential and the very low cost of Fe. In this study, the impacts of electrolyte composition on the performance and stability of nanostructured FeF2 cathodes are systematically investigated. Dramatic impacts of Li salt composition, Li salt concentration, solvent composition, and cycling potential range on the cathode's most critical performance parameters—stability, capacity, rate, and voltage hysteresis are discovered. In contrast to previous beliefs, it is observed that even if the Fe2+ cation dissolution could be avoided, the dissolution of F? anions may still negatively affect cathode performance. Formation of the more favorable cathode solid electrolyte interface (CEI) is found to minimize both processes.  相似文献

A covalent organic framework (COF), built from light atoms with a graphitic structure, could be an excellent anodic candidate for lightweight batteries, which can be of use in portable devices. But to replace the commercial graphite anode, they need more Li‐interactive sites/unit‐cell and all such sites should be made to participate. The compromise made in the volumetric density to gain the gravimetric advantage should be minimal. Exfoliation enhances surface/functional group accessibility yielding high capacity and rapid charge storage. A chemical strategy for simultaneous exfoliation and increase of Li‐loving active‐pockets can deliver a lightweight Li‐ion battery (LIB). Here, anthracene‐based COFs are chemically exfoliated into few‐layer‐thick nanosheets using maleic anhydride as a functionalizing exfoliation agent. It not only exfoliates but also introduces multiple Li‐interactive carbonyl groups, leading to a loading of 30 Li/unit‐cell (vs one Li per C6). The exfoliation enhances the specific capacity by ≈4 times (200–790 mAh g?1 @100 mA g?1). A realistic full‐cell, made using the exfoliated COF against a LiCoO2 cathode, delivers a specific capacity of 220 mAh g?1 over 200 cycles. The observed capacity stands highest among all organic polymers. For the first report of a COF derived full‐cell LIB, this is a windfall.  相似文献

Successful strategies for stabilizing electrodeposition of reactive metals, including lithium, sodium, and aluminum are a requirement for safe, high‐energy electrochemical storage technologies that utilize these metals as anodes. Unstable deposition produces high‐surface area dendritic structures at the anode/electrolyte interface, which causes premature cell failure by complex physical and chemical processes that have presented formidable barriers to progress. Here, it is reported that hybrid electrolytes created by infusing conventional liquid electrolytes into nanoporous membranes provide exceptional ability to stabilize Li. Electrochemical cells based on γ‐Al2O3 ceramics with pore diameters below a cut‐off value above 200 nm exhibit long‐term stability even at a current density of 3 mA cm?2. The effect is not limited to ceramics; similar large enhancements in stability are observed for polypropylene membranes with less monodisperse pores below 450 nm. These findings are critically assessed using theories for ion rectification and electrodeposition reactions in porous solids and show that the source of stable electrodeposition in nanoporous electrolytes is fundamental.  相似文献

Ca‐ion based devices are promising candidates for next‐generation energy storage with high performance and low cost, thanks to its multielectrons, superior kinetics, as well as abundance (2500 times lithium). Because of the lack of an appropriate combination of suitable electrode materials and electrolytes, it is unsuccessful to attain a satisfactory performance on complete Ca‐ion energy storage devices. Here, the multiion reaction strategy is defined to construct a complete Ca‐ion energy storage device and a capacitor–battery hybrid mechanism is deliberately adopted. Profiting from the elaborate design, it exhibits a high reversible capacity of 92 mAh g?1, unmatchable rate capability, and a high capacity retention of 84% over 1000 cycles under room temperature, which is the best performance of reported Ca‐based energy storage devices.  相似文献

Featuring pronounced controllability, versatility, and scalability, electrophoretic deposition (EPD) has been proposed as an efficient method for film assembly and electrode/solid electrolyte fabrication in various energy storage/conversion devices including rechargeable batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells. High‐quality electrodes and solid electrolytes have been prepared through EPD and exhibit advantageous performances in comparison with those realized with traditional methods. Recent advances in the application of EPD materials in electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices are summarized. In particular, the parameters that influence the efficiency of an EPD process from colloidal preparation to deposition are evaluated with the aim to provide insightful guidance for realizing high‐performance electrochemical energy conversion materials and devices.  相似文献

An ordered network of interconnected tin oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles with a unique 3D architecture and an excellent lithium‐ion (Li‐ion) storage performance is derived for the first time through hydrolysis and thermal self‐assembly of the solid alkoxide precursor. Mesoporous anodes composed of these ≈9 nm‐sized SnO2 particles exhibit substantially higher specific capacities, rate performance, coulombic efficiency, and cycling stabilities compared with disordered nanoparticles and commercial SnO2. A discharge capacity of 778 mAh g–1, which is very close to the theoretical limit of 781 mAh g–1, is achieved at a current density of 0.1 C. Even at high rates of 2 C (1.5 A g–1) and 6 C (4.7 A g–1), these ordered SnO2 nanoparticles retain stable specific capacities of 430 and 300 mAh g–1, respectively, after 100 cycles. Interconnection between individual nanoparticles and structural integrity of the SnO2 electrodes are preserved through numerous charge–discharge process cycles. The significantly better electrochemical performance of ordered SnO2 nanoparticles with a tap density of 1.60 g cm–3 is attributed to the superior electrode/electrolyte contact, Li‐ion diffusion, absence of particle agglomeration, and improved strain relaxation (due to tiny space available for the local expansion). This comprehensive study demonstrates the necessity of mesoporosity and interconnection between individual nanoparticles for improving the Li‐ion storage electrochemical performance of SnO2 anodes.  相似文献

The ion insertion properties of MoS2 continue to be of widespread interest for energy storage. While much of the current work on MoS2 has been focused on the high capacity four‐electron reduction reaction, this process is prone to poor reversibility. Traditional ion intercalation reactions are highlighted and it is demonstrated that ordered mesoporous thin films of MoS2 can be utilized as a pseudocapacitive energy storage material with a specific capacity of 173 mAh g?1 for Li‐ions and 118 mAh g?1 for Na‐ions at 1 mV s?1. Utilizing synchrotron grazing incidence X‐ray diffraction techniques, fast electrochemical kinetics are correlated with the ordered porous structure and with an iso‐oriented crystal structure. When Li‐ions are utilized, the material can be charged and discharged in 20 seconds while still achieving a specific capacity of 140 mAh g?1. Moreover, the nanoscale architecture of mesoporous MoS2 retains this level of lithium capacity for 10 000 cycles. A detailed electrochemical kinetic analysis indicates that energy storage for both ions in MoS2 is due to a pseudocapacitive mechanism.  相似文献

This study presents a battery concept with a “mediator‐ion” solid electrolyte for the development of next‐generation electrochemical energy storage technologies. The active anode and cathode materials in a single cell can be in the solid, liquid, or gaseous form, which are separated by a sodium‐ion solid‐electrolyte separator. The uniqueness of this mediator‐ion strategy is that the redox reactions at the anode and the cathode are sustained by a shuttling of a mediator sodium ion between the anolyte and the catholyte through the solid‐state electrolyte. Use of the solid‐electrolyte separator circumvents the chemical‐crossover problem between the anode and the cathode, overcomes the dendrite‐problem when employing metal‐anodes, and offers the possibility of using different liquid electrolytes at the anode and the cathode in a single cell. The battery concept is demonstrated with two low‐cost metal anodes (zinc and iron), two liquid cathodes (bromine and potassium ferricyanide), and one gaseous cathode (air/O2) with a sodium‐ion solid electrolyte. This novel battery strategy with a mediator‐ion solid electrolyte is applicable to a wide range of electrochemical energy storage systems with a variety of cathodes, anodes, and mediator‐ion solid electrolytes.  相似文献
