    Abstract All-Solid-State Batteries (ASSBs) that use oxide-based solid electrolytes (SEs) have been considered as a promising energy-storage platform to meet an increasing demand for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) with improved energy density and superior safety. However, high interfacial resistance between particles in the composite electrode and between electrodes and the use of Li metal in the ASBS hinder their practical utilization. Here, we review recent research progress on oxide-based SEs for the ASSBs with respect to the use of Li metal. We especially focus on research progress on garnet-type solid electrolytes (Li

    Abstract Tavorite LiVPO4F has great potential as a cathode material due to its high energy density, superior thermal stability and fast kinetics. It has been controversial whether the redox reaction pathway of LiVPO4F is symmetric or not, but the origin of such symmetric/asymmetric redox reaction pathways has not been clearly understood. By combining ab initio calculations with experiments, we found that oxygen defects on fluorine sites, OF−, can be a key factor that affects the symmetry of the redox pathway of LiVPO4F1−δOδ (δ < 1). The computational results indicate that (1) the thermodynamically metastable ‘triclinic’ polymorph of VPO4F1−δOδ, which maintains the structural symmetry of LiVPO4F, can be kinetically stabilized considering its marginally higher energy than the stable ‘monoclinic’ phase; and (2) the OF− defects slightly destabilize the intermediate phase (x = 0.667) (Li0.667VPO4F versus Li0.667VPO4F0.917O0.083), inferring that the presence of OF− defects can induce the asymmetric redox pathway of LiVPO4F1−δOδ. We also experimentally found that the concentration of OF− defects is critically affected by the synthesis process of LiVPO4F, and VPO4F with lower OF− concentration can support the possible presence of the metastable (triclinic) phase, leading to the redox pathway being prone to being symmetric. Therefore, controlling oxygen defects by a synthesis processes can affect electrochemical performance via different redox reaction pathways of LiVPO4F. This understanding provides further possibilities for improving the electrochemical performance.

    Abstract The Na superionic conductor (aka Nasicon, Na₁₊ₓZr₂SiₓP₃–ₓO₁₂, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 3) is one of the promising solid electrolyte materials used in advanced molten Na-based secondary batteries that typically operate at high temperature (over ∼270 °C). Nasicon provides a 3D diffusion network allowing the transport of the active Na-ion species (i.e., ionic conductor) while blocking the conduction of electrons (i.e., electronic insulator) between the anode and cathode compartments of cells. In this work, the standard Nasicon (Na₃Zr₂Si₂PO₁₂, bare sample) and 10 at% Na-excess Nasicon (Na₃.₃Zr₂Si₂PO₁₂, Na-excess sample) solid electrolytes were synthesized using a solid-state sintering technique to elucidate the Na diffusion mechanism (i.e., grain diffusion or grain boundary diffusion) and the impacts of adding excess Na at relatively low and high temperatures. The structural, thermal, and ionic transport characterizations were conducted using various experimental tools including X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). In addition, an ab initio atomistic modeling study was carried out to computationally examine the detailed microstructures of Nasicon materials, as well as to support the experimental observations. Through this combination work comprising experimental and computational investigations, we show that the predominant mechanisms of Na-ion transport in the Nasicon structure are the grain boundary and the grain diffusion at low and high temperatures, respectively. Also, it was found that adding 10 at% excess Na could give rise to a substantial increase in the total conductivity (e.g., ∼1.2 × 10–¹ S/cm at 300 °C) of Nasicon electrolytes resulting from the enlargement of the bottleneck areas in the Na diffusion channels of polycrystalline grains.
