NASICON-type structure lithium ion conductors have been considered as promising solid electrolytes due to its very high Li + -ion conductivity and chemical stability. In this paper, NASICON-type structured Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP) glass–ceramics are prepared from crystallization of glass powders, which are obtained by a simple melt-quench method. NH 4 H 2 PO 4 , H 3 PO 4 , P 2 O 5 and H 3 PO 4 &Al(PO 3 ) 3 are used as phosphorus sources, respectively. The obtained LAGP glass–ceramics are systematically characterized with X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy , differential scanning calorimetry and AC impedance spectroscopy . The different impurities are formed depending on the phosphorus sources, which further influence the microstructure. As a result, the lithium ion conductivity is significantly affected by the phosphorus sources. The highest conductivity of 5.21 × 10 − 4 S·cm − 1 is obtained when H 3 PO 4 is used as the phosphorus source under optimum conditions.

The preparation and characterization of Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 ( x = 0, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1) as anode materials for lithium ion batteries are investigated in this research. The structure, morphology and electrochemical properties are compared with each other by changing the Pb/Ba atomic ratio in Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 . It can be observed that each sample shows the same orthorhombic structure with Cmca space group. Moreover, it can also be found that the working potential, conductivity, cycling and rate performances of as-received samples gradually change along with the evolution of x in Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 ( x = 0, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1). Electrochemical evaluation shows that the operating potential of the as-received sample gradually decreases with increasing x value in Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 and its initial charge capacity increases reversely. Moreover, different Pb/Ba atomic ratio also brings different cycling stability for Pb 1- x Ba x Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 . Especially for Pb 3/4 Ba 1/4 Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 , it presents better electrochemical properties than other samples. After 120 cycles, the reversible capacity of Pb 3/4 Ba 1/4 Li 2 Ti 6 O 14 is maintained at 129.7 mAh g −1 with capacity retention of 88.3%. In addition, its electrochemical reversibility is also demonstrated by in-situ X-ray investigation.

Li-ion microbatteries find wide applications in microdevices. It is important to develop electrode materials with high areal capacity, excellent rate capability and superior safety for microbatteries. TiO2 nanowire arrays satisfy the requirements of high areal capacity, short transport lengths and superior safety for microbatteries, but their areal/volumetric capacity is hindered by the insufficient surface area. TiO2 nanotrees can effectively eliminate these disadvantages of TiO2 nanowires; however, the electrochemical performances of TiO2 nanotrees for Li-ion microbatteries remain unexplored. It is highly desired yet challenging to construct two-dimensional TiO2 nanobranches with an ultrathin thickness and large length on nanoarrays, to maximize the surface area and structural hierarchy of electrodes. Herein, we developed a novel synthetic strategy to fabricate TiO2 nanotrees by depositing anatase/TiO2(B) mixed phase ultrathin nanobelts onto single-crystalline anatase nanowire arrays. The nanobelt branches were several nanometers in thickness and 200–260 nm in length. The growth process and the electrochemical mechanism were investigated. The unique nanoarchitecture and optimal phase structure endow the electrode with high areal capacity and rate capability, which is the best performance for TiO2 nanowire arrays ever documented. The 2nd discharge capacity of the TiO2 nanotrees at 0.1 mA cm−2 is ca. 267 μA h cm−2, corresponding to a volumetric capacity of 330 mA h cm−3. The TiO2 nanotrees have an areal capacity of 205, 141, 97 and 69 μA h cm−2 at a current density of 0.5, 2.0, 5.0 and 10.0 mA cm−2, respectively. The capacity can remain stable for 400 charge–discharge cycles at 1.0 mA cm−2. The present strategy may give hints to elegant electrode designs for energy applications.

Copper-doped lithium manganese spinel LiCu x Mn 2-x O 4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.10) as lithium ion cathode material were synthesized by a fameless combustion synthesis at 500 °C for 3 h, two-stage calcination at 600 °C for 3 h. The phase composition was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), which indicated that all samples exhibited a single spinel structure except that LiCu 0.08 Mn 1.92 O 4 had a little impurity of Mn 3 O 4 . Micro-morphology of the materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), suggesting particle size of samples was nearly uniform when copper-doped amount x ranged from 0 to 0.06, the particle of LiCu 0.08 Mn 1.92 O 4 and LiCu 0.10 Mn 1.90 O 4 more seriously agglomerated together than that of other samples. The cycle performance tests indicated that the sample LiCu 0.06 Mn 1.94 O 4 had the highest initial discharge specific capacity of 128.1 mA h . g -1 and the 150 th capacity retention was 70.1% at 0.2 C rate. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy of the sample LiCu 0.06 Mn 1.94 O 4 illustrated that appropriate copper-doped modification can improve electrochemical reversibility as well as suppress electrochemical impedance.

One-dimensional porous Fe 2 O 3 nanotubes with 2 µm length, 220 nm outer diameter and 65 nm wall thickness were firstly synthesized via a low temperature hydrothermal method followed by thermal treatment. As advanced anode for lithium ion batteries , porous Fe 2 O 3 nanotubes exhibit obviously enhanced electrochemical properties in terms of lithium storage capacity (1050.1 mA h g −1 at 100 mA g −1 rate), initial coulombic efficiency (78.4%), cycle performances (90.6% capacity retention at 50th cycle), and rate capability (613.7 mA h g −1 at 1000 mA g −1 rate). This enhancement could be attributed to the one-dimensional nanostructure of porous Fe 2 O 3 nanotubes which could increase contact area between electrolyte and active materials, shorten migration path for Li + ions and electrons, and accommodate the volume variations via additional void space during cycling.

Amorphous Ni–P–C films are fabricated by combining the electrodeposition of Ni–P films from a eutectic-based ionic liquid and the direct current magnetron sputtering of amorphous carbon top-layer. The carbon top-layer with a thickness of about 10 nm is homogeneously coated on the surface of the Ni–P films. A comparison study is undertaken between Ni–P and Ni–P–C films to evaluate the microstructure and the electrochemical performances of the composite films as anode materials for lithium ion batteries , which allow the decoupling of the effect of the carbon layer . It is found that at lower discharge–charge current densities, the cyclability of both Ni–P and Ni–P–C films is similar. As the discharge–charge current density increases, the Ni–P–C film exhibits improved capability and reversibility over the Ni–P film. The Ni–P–C film delivers an initial discharge capacity of 1060 mAh g −1 at 250 mA g −1 and the capacity retention after 50 cycles is 62%, much higher than that of the Ni–P film (51%). The cyclability of Ni–P–C film at different discharge–charge current densities from 200 to 500 mA g −1 is also much better than those of Ni–P film. This study indicates that the introduction of a carbon top-layer on Ni–P film could significantly improve the electrochemical performances due to the decreased interface electric resistance and the structure stability.

In this study, high-crystallinity and small-particle-size Li2TiO3 nanocrystals were prepared through the reaction between anatase TiO2 and Li2CO3 in a LiCl molten salt and ethanol medium. The Cl– ions reacted with TiO2 to increase the solubility of TiO2 and strengthen the dissolution–precipitation mechanism for Li2TiO3 preparation. The particle diffusion process was found to be the rate control process for the adsorption of Li+ ions. A porous spherical lithium ion adsorbent named HTO–PVC-PANn was prepared using a phase transformation approach. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC was modified with carboxyl groups as a binder, and poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) was used as a pore former. The interaction between PVC and HTO and PAN was thus strengthened to improve the adsorbent stability. The developed HTO–PVC-PANn adsorbent shows excellent absorption capabilities, stability, and reduced dissolution loss.

Disposal of waste foundry sand is still one of the most critical challenges faced by the foundry industry. The recycling and reusing of waste foundry sand not only lead to a saving of naturally abundant sand sources but also enhance the sustainability of environmental protection. A new approach in recycling waste foundry sand is introduced in the paper. Based on this approach, porous silicon powder is scalably fabricated, employing magnesiothermic reduction. In the initial one cycle, the capacities of the charge and discharge are 2210 mAh/g and 1602 mAh/g, respectively. The coulombic efficiency of the as-prepared porous silicon is about 72%. The as-prepared porous silicon is considered as the potential material for the preparation of silicon-based anodes in high energy Li-ion batteries.

NASICON-structured solid-state electrolyte, namely Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP) possesses high ionic conductivity and good compatibility with lithium metal that make it an ideal electrolyte for next-generation lithium battery. However, high interfacial impedance and possible dendrite limit its practical applications. To reduce interfacial impedance, herein, surface texturing on the LAGP is conducted using a femtosecond laser, and further wetted by ionic liquids. The femtosecond laser-modified surface can effectively increase wettability and improve the interfacial contacts. Low area specific impedance of 81.4Ω cm -2 is obtained and the full battery demonstrates good electrochemical performances.

The issue of cathode passivation during cycling resulting in rapid capacity fading and premature battery death is a major challenge that hinders the applications of lithium–oxygen (Li–O 2 ) batteries. Here, a facile strategy of introducing a functional separator based on flexible amination SiO 2 /TiO 2 inorganic woven film (STON WF) is proposed to suppress the cathode passivation problem. The by-products, i.e. HCOOLi, CH 3 COOLi and Li 2 CO 3 can be selectively adsorbed on the STON WF separator preferably compared with the cathode and further proved by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Thus, benefiting from the separator, the Li–O 2 cells with super P carbon and catalyst-free cathode show enhanced electrochemical performance (5645 mA h g −1 at a current density of 200 mA g −1 ), good rate capability (discharge voltage of 2.43 V at a current density of 1.5 A g −1 ) and especially superior cycle stability up to 268 cycles. These findings present a promising approach to prevent the premature battery death.

To reduce the influence from volume expansion of silicon during lithium lithiation/delithiation, milled flake graphite/plasma nano-silicon@carbon (MFG/PNSi@C) composite with void sandwich structure is synthesized by assembling thin MFG (thickness of 150 nm) sheets loading with carbon-coated PNSi (plasma nano-silicon) via a facile spray drying method. The MFG/PNSi@C composite, as lithium ion battery anode, exhibits excellent electrochemical performance at room temperature and displays an outstanding cyclic property even at high temperature. The MFG/PNSi@C electrode delivers reversible capacity of 1141 mAh g −1 , and high initial Coulombic efficiency of 84.4%, and capacity retention of 84.1% after 200 cycles at a current density of 0.1 A g −1 . Even at the current density of 0.2 and 0.4 A g −1 , the reversible capacities of 1168 and 1102 mAh g −1 can be achieved respectively, with the capacity retention of 68.9% and 63.9% after 200 cycles. Even the work temperature goes up 60 °C, the discharge/charge capacities of 832/808 mAh g −1 can be obtained at a current density of 0.1 A g −1 . The stable cyclic performance is mainly due to the void sandwich structure of the MFG/PNSi@C composite, which dramatically shortens lithium ion diffusion path and pitch carbon shell can buffer huge volume expansion.

In this paper, we report a one-step and additive-free route for synthesizing hierarchical rutile TiO 2 with mesocrystalline structure. The rutile TiO 2 architecture constructed by oriented tiny nanorod subunits (around 5 nm in diameter) have nano/submicro hierarchical structures, nanoporous nature, a relatively large surface area and high tapped density. When the hierarchical rutile TiO 2 was studied as anode material for Li-ion batteries (LIBs), they exhibited a high reversible capacity of more than 250 mAh g −1 within a voltage window of 1–3 V, superior rate capability and very good cycling stability with 220 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g −1 . It’s notable that the hierarchical rutile TiO 2 exhibited superior Li-ion storage properties under deep cycling conditions (0.01-3.0 V), a stable capacity of 346 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g −1 could be remained. The hierarchical TiO 2 also displayed a large reversible capacity of more than 255 mAh g −1 (average value) at 0.05 A g −1 and good cycling performance for Na-ion insertion. These results, in combination with high volumetric storage capacity, render hierarchical rutile TiO 2 a promising anode material for rechargeable batteries.
