    Abstract Two major challenges hinder the advance of aqueous zinc metal batteries for sustainable stationary storage: (1) achieving predominant Zn-ion (de)intercalation at the oxide cathode by suppressing adventitious proton co-intercalation and dissolution, and (2) simultaneously overcoming Zn dendrite growth at the anode that triggers parasitic electrolyte reactions. Here, we reveal the competition between Zn

    Abstract Ion transport in solid-state cathode materials prescribes a fundamental limit to the rates batteries can operate; therefore, an accurate understanding of ion transport is a critical missing piece to enable new battery technologies, such as magnesium batteries. Based on our conventional understanding of lithium-ion materials, MgCr₂O₄ is a promising magnesium-ion cathode material given its high capacity, high voltage against an Mg anode, and acceptable computed diffusion barriers. Electrochemical examinations of MgCr₂O₄, however, reveal significant energetic limitations. Motivated by these disparate observations; herein, we examine long-range ion transport by electrically polarizing dense pellets of MgCr₂O₄. Our conventional understanding of ion transport in battery cathode materials, e.g., Nernst–Einstein conduction, cannot explain the measured response since it neglects frictional interactions between mobile species and their nonideal free energies. We propose an extended theory that incorporates these interactions and reduces to the Nernst–Einstein conduction under dilute conditions. This theory describes the measured response, and we report the first study of long-range ion transport behavior in MgCr₂O₄. We conclusively show that the Mg chemical diffusivity is comparable to lithium-ion electrode materials, whereas the total conductivity is rate-limiting. Given these differences, energy storage in MgCr₂O₄ is limited by particle-scale voltage drops, unlike lithium-ion particles that are limited by concentration gradients. Future materials design efforts should consider the interspecies interactions described in this extended theory, particularly with respect to multivalent-ion systems and their resultant effects on continuum transport properties.

    Abstract Intermixing of atomic species at the electrode–electrolyte boundaries can impact the properties of the interfaces in solid-state batteries. Herein, this work uses first-principles statistical mechanics along with experimental characterization to understand intermixing at the electrode–electrolyte interface. For the model presented in this work, lithium manganese oxide (LiMn₂O₄, LMO) and lithium lanthanum titanate (Li₃ₓLa₂/₃–ₓTiO₃, LLTO) are employed as the cathode and electrolyte, respectively. The results of the computational work show that Ti–Mn intermixing at the interface is significant at synthesis temperatures. The experimental results in this work find that, at some critical temperatures between 600 and 700 °C for material preparation, the interface of LLTO–LMO becomes blurred. Calculations predict that the interface is unstable with regard to Ti–Mn intermixing starting at 0 K, suggesting that the critical temperature found in the experiment is related to kinetics. The work overall suggests that, in designing a solid-state battery, the fundamental reactions such as intermixing need to be considered.

    Abstract Owing to their high specific capacity and suitably low operating potential, silicon-based anodes are an attractive alternative to graphite in next-generation lithium-ion batteries. However, silicon anodes suffer from low initial coulombic efficiency and fast capacity decay, limiting their widespread application. Pre-lithiation strategies are highly appealing to compensate for irreversible active lithium loss and to boost the cell energy density. In this work, we maximize the cell energy density by direct pre-lithiation of the NMC (LiNi₀.₅Mn₀.₃Co₀.₂O₂) cathode to Li₁₊ₓNMCO₂ without introducing inactive deadweight to either electrode. First, we demonstrate that Li₁₊ₓNMCO₂ can be synthesized chemically, via reaction between NMC and lithium napthalide, and electrochemically. The NMC cathode is tolerant of a one-time over-lithiation up to 60 mA h gNMC⁻¹, giving capacity retention on par with untreated NMC in half cell electrochemical cycling. Using synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy (ex situ) and diffraction (in situ), we demonstrate that higher amounts of over-lithiation lead to local structure distortion – driven by transition metal reduction to Jahn–Teller active Mn³⁺ and Co²⁺ – as well as bulk structural hysteresis during over-lithiation and layer “buckling” that increases the amount of lithium extracted from the structure in the charged state. The Li₁₊ₓNMCO₂ with low-to-moderate over-lithiation capacity (23, 46, and 70 mA h gNMC⁻¹) is proven to be a highly effective dual-purpose lithium source and cathode material in full cell tests with a commercially relevant Si–graphite anode. These cells show higher capacity, superior cycle life, and improved coulombic efficiencies when compared to those with stoichiometric NMC cathodes. This study introduces a new and simple method to pre-lithiate layered transition metal oxide cathodes, opening up new possibilities for the development of high energy density lithium-ion batteries with next-generation anodes.

    Abstract Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) employing zinc metal anodes are gaining traction as batteries for moderate to long duration energy storage at scale. However, corrosion of the zinc metal anode through reaction with water limits battery efficiency. Much research in the past few years has focused on additives that decrease hydrogen evolution, but the precise mechanisms by which this takes place are often understudied and remain unclear. In this work, we study the role of an acetonitrile antisolvent additive in improving the performance of aqueous ZnSO
