In this work we investigate novel, agarose-based polymer electrolyte that is modified by magnetic NiO nanoparticles for solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) applications. After proper treatment under an external magnetic field , the agarose electrolyte exhibits increased ionic conductivity and better penetration into the mesoporous TiO 2 photoanode film, which improves the power conversion efficiency of the DSSCs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurement is also performed to analyze the magnetic field effect on cell performance. After applying proper magnetic filed intensity, the recombination resistance and redox transport resistance in the devices are improved. This method can be possibly applied to other solid-state electrolyte materials to improve their performance and can lead to more efficient DSSCs.

Composite polymer-ceramic electrolytes have shown considerable potential for high-energy-density Li-metal batteries as they combine the benefits of both polymers and ceramics. However, low ionic conductivity and poor contact with electrodes limit their practical usage. In this study, a highly conductive and stable composite electrolyte with a high ceramic loading is developed for high-energy-density Li-metal batteries. The electrolyte, produced through in situ polymerization and composed of a polymer called poly-1,3-dioxolane in a poly(vinylidene fluoride)/ceramic matrix, exhibits excellent room-temperature ionic conductivity of 1.2 mS cm −1 and high stability with Li metal over 1500 h. When tested in a Li|electrolyte|LiFePO 4 battery, the electrolyte delivers excellent cycling performance and rate capability at room temperature, with a discharge capacity of 137 mAh g −1 over 500 cycles at 1 C. Furthermore, the electrolyte not only exhibits a high Li + transference number of 0.76 but also significantly lowers contact resistance (from 157.8 to 2.1 Ω) relative to electrodes. When used in a battery with a high-voltage LiNi 0.8 Mn 0.1 Co 0.1 O 2 cathode, a discharge capacity of 140 mAh g −1 is achieved. These results show the potential of composite polymer-ceramic electrolytes in room-temperature solid-state Li-metal batteries and provide a strategy for designing highly conductive polymer-in-ceramic electrolytes with electrode-compatible interfaces.

A dual-halide solid electrolyte, Li 3 YCl 3 Br 3 , was synthesized using a wet-chemistry route instead of the conventional mechanical ball-milling route. Li 3 YCl 3 B r3 exhibits an ion conductivity of 2.08 mS/cm and an electro- chemical stability window of 3.8 V. Additionally, an all-solid-state lithium-ion battery using Li 3 YCl 3 Br 3 and LiNi 0.83 Co 0.11 Mn 0.06 O 2 (NCM811) as the cathode material achieves a capacity retention of 93% after 200 cycles at 0.3 C and maintains a specific capacity of 115 mA·h/g during 2 C cycling. This exceptional performance is attributed to the high oxidative stability of Li 3 YCl 3 Br 3 and the in-situ formation of Y 2 O 3 inert protective layer on the NCM811 surface under high voltage. Consequently, the study demonstrates the feasibility of a simple, cost-effective wet-chemistry route for synthesizing multi-component halides, highlighting its potential for large-scale production of halide solid electrolytes for practical applications.

Nanosilicon@nonstoichiometric silicon oxide where nanosilicon is embedded in SiO x matrix (abbreviated as nano-Si@SiOx), is a very attractive material structure to suppress the volume effect of silicon in Lithium-ion batteries. In this work, we demonstrate that the combination of electrolysis and peeling technique produce nano-Si@SiOx from bulk SiO 2 . X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) are employed to characterize the prepared materials. The average O/Si atomic ratio of the synthesized nano-Si@SiOx is about 0.91. The nano-Si@SiOx/graphite composite prepared using it as the precursor exhibits a stable discharge capacity of about 1560 mAh g −1 (calculated on the total mass of the composite) with good cyclic stability and rate capability. This work provides a new routine to prepare nano-Si@SiOx composite.

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) are highly promising as next-generation energy storage devices owing to their potential for great safety and high energy density. This work demonstrates that composite solid polymer electrolyte with vertically-aligned card-house structure can simultaneously improve the high rate and long-term cycling performance of ASSLBs. The vertical alignment of laponite nanosheets creates fast and uniform Li + ion transport channels at the nanosheets/polymer interphase, resulting in high ionic conductivity of 8.9 × 10 −4 S cm −1 and Li + transference number of 0.32 at 60 °C, as well as uniformly distributed solid electrolyte interphase. Such electrolyte is characterized by high mechanical strength, low flammability, excellent structural stability and stable ion transport channels. In addition, the ASSLB cell with the electrolyte and LiFePO 4 cathode delivers a high discharge specific capacity of 124.8 mAh g −1 , which accounts for 85.6% of its initial capacity after 500 cycles at 1C. The reasonable design through structural control strategy by interconnecting the vertically-aligned nanosheets open a way to fabricate high performance composite solid polymer electrolytes.

The synthesis of a nanocomposite gel polymer electrolytes (NGPEs) using Li + -functionalized SPEEK (SPEEK(Li)) nanofiber membrane as a matrix, cross-linked PVA as a gelled agent and LiClO 4 as an electrolytic salt for electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) were reported in this work. Compared with conventional PVA based gel electrolyte, the “SO 3 − Li + ” functional groups and the pores structure of the SPEEK(Li) nanofiber membrane improves the ionic conductivity as well as mechanical stability , which made the prepared NGPEs exhibited a high ionic conductivity of 8.9 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at ambient temperature and a large voltage stability window range from 0 to 2.0 V. The fabricated symmetric EDLCs showed a specific capacitance of 146.96 F g −1 at a current density of 0.5 A g −1 , with a maximum energy density of 18.26 W h kg −1 . Meanwhile, the EDLCs showed outstanding cyclical stability of 98% specific capacitance retention after 3000 cycles GCD testing, all of these results indicated that the NGPEs should be appropriate to EDLCs and next-generation energy storage systems .
