The hunt for a higher power storage, relatively inexpensive, non-polluting battery technology is currently a pressing issue because of the rapid growth of the worldwide economic and the progressively significant environmental pollution. Among the possible nanomaterials for rechargeable batteries that can have heteroatoms applied to it in order to improve its electrochemical behavior is LixTiy(PO4)3. Carbon-coated Mn-doped Li2Mn0.1Ti1.9(PO4)3 materials was synthesized by spray drying method. The material was characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, BET, TGA et al. Crystal data refinement results by Rietveld method showed that the symmetry space group is Pbcn.The lattice parameters of Li2Mn0.1Ti1.9(PO4)3 are a = 11.9372 Å, b = 8.5409 Å, c = 8.5979 Å, α = β = γ = 90°, V = 876.59 Å3 and Z = 4). Rietveld refinement was performed, and the confidence factors are Rwp = 11.79%, Rp = 9.14%, and χ2 = 1.425. It was exhibited that LMTP0.1/CA-700 material has good crystallinity. Testing the cells with LAND test procedure (200 mA/g current density for 200 cycles), the LMTP0.1/CA-700 material has a discharge specific capacity of about 65 mAh/g. The capacity decayed by only 3% during the cycle. It has some potential application values as cathode of lithium ion battery in the future.

A novel cubic KTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 is successfully synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method combined with a subsequent annealing treatment and further used as electrode material for sodium-ion batteries for the first time. For comparison, carbon-coated KTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 obtained by a normal cane sugar-assisted method reveals superior electrochemical performances in sodium-ion battery. Besides of the high coulombic efficiency of nearly 100% after 100 cycles, a stable capacity of 112 mA h g −1 can be achieved at 0.5 C after 100 cycles, and still maintains to 105 mA h g −1 after 500 cycles with capacity retention of approximately 90%.

Development of intrinsically safe and long lifespan sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) is urgently needed for large-scale energy storage applications. However, most of the currently developed SIBs suffer from insufficient cycle life and potential unsafety. Herein, we construct an all-phosphate sodium-ion battery (AP-SIB) using a Na3V2(PO4)3 cathode, NaTi2(PO4)3 anode, and nonflammable trimethyl phosphate (TMP) electrolyte. The AP-SIB exhibits not only high safety, high rate performance, and ultralong cycle life but also zero-strain characteristics due to the inverse volume change of the phosphate cathode and anode during charge and discharge cycles, offering a safer and cycle-stable Na-ion technology for electric storage applications.

NASICON (NAtrium Super Ionic CONductor)-structured Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 has attracted attention as a promising cathode for sodium-ion batteries due to its high operating voltage and specific capacity contributed by multielectron reactions. Unfortunately, its intrinsic low electronic conductivity significantly hinders the release of specific capacity and rate capability, preventing its practical application. Herein, a carbon layer with dual conductive networks connected by chain-like Ketjen black (KB) is built on the surface of Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 material. This novel Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 /C@KB composite material exhibits improved rate capability of 61.2 mAh g −1 at 2 C compared to 19.5 mAh g −1 of Na 4 MnCr(PO 4 ) 3 /C and high reversible capacity of 88.0 mAh g −1 at 1 C with 73% capacity retention after 100 cycles. The enhanced electrochemical performance can be ascribed to an increase of electronic conductivity enabled by the dual conductive 3D network construction and an adequate infiltration of electrolyte by substantial pores existence in carbon layer. A promising dual conductive network design strategy is demonstrated here for improving the performance of NASICON-structured cathodes.

NASICON-type Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7(PO4)3 (LATP) is a widely used solid electrolyte in solid-state lithium batteries, owing to its excellent chemical stability against moisture and high total ionic conductivity. However, traditionally, densification of LATP has been achieved through a high-temperature sintering process (approximately 1000 °C) owing to its poor sinterability. Herein, we report a facile synthesis route to obtain highly sinterable LATP solid electrolyte using tetrabutyl titanate (C16H36O4Ti) as the titanium source and incorporating the traditional solid-state reaction method. The synthetic LATP powder mixed with a low ratio of LiTiPO5 exhibited a hybrid crystalline–amorphous phase structure, which facilitated grain fusion, promoted structural homogeneity, and facilitated structural densification under low-temperature sintering. The sintered LATP pellet, which exhibited an interconnected structure and indistinct grain boundaries, achieved a relative density of >90% and an ionic conductivity of 0.667 mS/cm at a sintering temperature of only 750 °C. Additionally, we systematically studied and demonstrated the synthesis reaction mechanism, sintering behavior, and ionic diffusion kinetics of LATP electrolytes. Our study paves the way for synthesizing highly sinterable LATP solid electrolytes using a simple, additive-free, and cost-effective method.

We report effectiveness of dopants selected from group 13, such as B, Ga, and In, on the conductivity of Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP) that is recognized as one of the promising solid electrolytes for next-generation solid-state lithium batteries. To minimize loss of versatile element, crystallization of LAGP using a microwave irradiation is introduced. Experimental results demonstrate that B enhances grain boundary conductivity, while Ga improves the bulk ionic conductivity. Co-doping of B and Ga leads to enhanced total ionic conductivity and remarkably reduced activation energy.

NaTi2(PO4)3 (NTP) with a sodium superionic conductor three-dimensional (3D) framework is a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) because of its suitable potential and stable structure. Although its 3D structure enables high Na-ion diffusivity, low electronic conductivity severely limits NTP’s practical application in SIBs. Herein, we report porous NTP/C nanofibers (NTP/C-NFs) obtained via an electrospinning method. The NTP/C-NFs exhibit a high reversible capacity (120 mA h g–1 at 0.2 C) and a long cycling stability (a capacity retention of ∼93% after 700 cycles at 2 C). Furthermore, sodium-ion full cells and hybrid sodium-ion capacitors have also been successfully assembled, both of which exhibit high-rate capabilities and remarkable cycling stabilities because of the high electronic/ionic conductivity and impressive structural stability of NTP/C-NFs. The results show that the nanoscale-tailored NTP/C-NFs could deliver new insights into the design of high-performing and highly stable anode materials for room-temperature SIBs.

Sodium super-ionic conductor (NASICON) materials are believed as competitive cathodes for sodium-ion batteries, however, their practical application is still prohibited by the limited reversible capacity. In this study, the tri-metal NASICON structured Na 3 Mn 0.5 V 0.5 Ti(PO 4 ) 3 is designed to combine with reduced graphene oxide (NMVTP/rGO) as cathode material . Benefited from the multi-step redox couples of Mn, V, and Ti, NMVTP/rGO realizes high reversible capacity and wide operating voltage. The small sizes of Na 3 Mn 0.5 V 0.5 Ti(PO 4 ) 3 and rGO ensure the fast charge migration. The rGO inhibits the dissolution of electrode material. As a result, NMVTP/rGO exhibits large specific capacity of 284.6 mAh g −1 at 0.1C, high rate performance (170.2 mAh g −1 at 1C and 108.5 mAh g −1 at 5C), and good cyclic stability. This work demonstrates a new insight for designing tri-metal NASICON structured materials with high capacity for sodium-ion batteries.

In this paper, LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @N-doped carbon anode has been synthesized by in situ carbon coating approach. The well-proportioned N-doped carbon layer and loose nanoporous structure was obtained by using urea as nitrogen source and pore former. LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @N-doped carbon as anode demonstrates much better rate capability than LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon in ALIBs. The optimized anode delivers the discharge capacity of 93.7 mAh g −1 and 74.2 mAh g −1 at rates of 10C and 20C, 22.5 mAh g −1 and 50.0 mAh g −1 larger than that of LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon. Moreover, LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @N-doped carbon exhibits excellent cycling performance with capacity retention of 84.3% at 5C after 1000 cycles. As verified, the well-proportioned N-doped carbon layer could reduce charge transfer resistance and improve electrical conductivity. The loose nanoporous structure could shorten pathway and facilitate diffusion for Li ion. Therefore, LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @N-doped carbon gets the superior electrochemical properties benefiting from those two characteristics.

The development of novel phosphors with excellent luminescence properties for white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) is always a formidable task. Compared with the traditional laborious and aimless “trial and error” experiments, a mineral-inspired prototype strategy can provide an efficient and accurate method. Herein, for the first time, a novel yellow-emitting phosphor NaBaY2(PO4)3:Eu2+ was discovered using the mineral-inspired prototype strategy and cation substitution method. The phosphor was prepared via the high-temperature solid-state reaction method, and its crystal structure, luminescence properties and potential application for WLEDs were systematically investigated. The NaBaY2(PO4)3 phase was derived from the K2Mg2(SO4)3-type mineral structure and a photoluminescence study revealed that the phosphor can emit bright yellow light with a maximum at 545 nm upon excitation at 351 nm. A WLED lamp was fabricated by the use of a blend of commercial blue-emitting BaMgAl10O17:Eu2+, yellow-emitting NaBaY2(PO4)3:Eu2+ and red-emitting (Ca, Sr)AlSiN3:Eu2+ phosphors with a 380 nm LED chip. The CIE, CCT, Ra and efficiency of the as-fabricated LEDs were measured to be equal to (0.366, 0.365), 4327 K, 91.2 and 40.8 lm W−1, respectively. These results suggest that NaBaY2(PO4)3:Eu2+ could be a promising candidate for n-UV WLEDs.

NASICON-structured Li1.5Al0.5Ge1.5(PO4)3 (LAGP) has been a promising solid-state glass-ceramic electrolyte for all-solid-state lithium ion batteries. However, the non-ideal ionic conductivity, non-uniformity of chemical composition, distortion and micro-cracks, etc., have limited its practical application. Considering these issues, in this work, we first of all introduce partial substitution of Al3+ by Ga3+. To avoid segregation of secondary phase, microwave sintering technology to prepare LAGP was used. With the help of microwave irradiation, sintering could be finished in just 30 min, and the size of crystals was homogeneous across the cross-section. No distortion and micro-cracks could be identified. Characterisations such as DTA, XRD, SEM and EIS were used to evaluate the material and electrochemical properties of the Li1.5Al0.5-xGaxGe1.5(PO4)3 (x = 0.1 ~ 0.5) samples. A high bulk conductivity of 6.67 × 10−4 S/cm at room temperature has been achieved when x = 0.1 and the activation energy was about 0.66 eV.

The rapid increase in the commercialization of electric vehicles and portable electronics has markedly raised the demand for lithium resources. Extracting lithium from brine has become a critical pathway to address future lithium production challenges. However, the lithium extraction efficiency of conventional technologies is limited by the low levels of Li + and the high Mg 2+ /Li + ratio present in brine. A method involving one-step electrolysis with a solid-state electrolyte has been introduced for the direct and efficient extraction of metallic lithium. Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 (LATP) is considered a highly promising selective membrane for large-scale lithium extraction from brine sources due to its low cost, excellent stability, and high ionic conductivity. Herein, LATP electrolytes were synthesized through the optimization of solid-state reaction conditions. The resulting LATP pellets exhibited a high relative density of 98.29 % and an impressive ionic conductivity of 3.88 × 10 −4 S cm −1 . The lithium extraction device utilizing LATP as a selective membrane achieved a remarkable current efficiency of 97.4 % and a high lithium production rate of 40.4 μg h −1 cm −2 . After lithium extraction process, the LATP pellets retained the ionic conductivity of 2.69 × 10 −4 S cm −1 and preserved the sodium super ion conductors (NASICON) crystal structure. This study presents an efficient Li + selective membrane for extracting lithium directly from natural brine.
