Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) has gained enormous attentions due to the high capacity and voltage platform. Nevertheless, poor intrinsic electronic conductivities severely restrict the further development. Herein, a feasible strategy to construct unique dimensional gradient structure of the wolfram doped NVP is proposed via a facile sol–gel method. The introduction of W 6+ with the smaller ionic radius parallelized with local V 3+ ions could stabilize the open NASICON structure of NVP and generate vast of beneficial holes to accelerate the electronic transportation. Notably, the wolfram can combine with the superfluous carbon layer and form the new conductive WC phase to further promote the electronic conductivity. Meanwhile, the coated carbon layers and enwrapped CNTs construct an effective conductive framework for accelerated electronic migration. The twining CNTs promote to inhibit the growth of the sintered grains, reducing the particle size to provide shortened pathway for the migration of Na + . Distinctively, the modified Na 2.97 V 2.99 W 0.019 (PO 4 ) 3 /C@CNTs (W0.01-NVP) composite delivers a superior electrochemical performance. Significantly, it can submit a high reversible capability of 112.5 mAh g −1 at 5C with retaining 86% initial capacity over 500 cycles. As for a super high rate of 50C, it reveals an incredible capacity of 92.6 mAh g −1 and remains 84.5 mAh g −1 over 400 cycles, corresponding to a high retention of 91.30%. The superior electrochemical performance is derived from the enhanced crystal structure resulted from wolfram substitution and the beneficial dimensional conductive system consisting of new WC phase, coated carbon layers and enwrapped CNTs.

Cathode materials with high capacity and cyclic durability are urgently needed for capacitive deionization . Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 is an emerging pseudocapacitive candidate for this process on account of its high capacity and Na + reversible insertion, while it suffers from the intrinsic low electrical conductivity and small electrolyte-accessible surface area. Herein, a sea urchin-like Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon (NVP@C) compound material was synthesized from MXene-V 2 C via hydrothermal method followed by annealing treatment, and then assembled as capacitive deionization (CDI) electrode material . Benefiting from three-dimensional sea urchin-like structure, where the nanoneedles of NVP@C serve as fast transport channel for Na + , NVP@C performed high specific capacity (437 F g −1 at 5 mV s −1 ) and fast ionic diffusion kinetics. Moreover, the NVP@C showed attractive desalination performance as cathode material for CDI, achieving a remarkable adsorption capacity of 74.0 mg g −1 in a NaCl salt solution (1000 mg L −1 ) and long life cycle stability. The present work provides a novel perspective to construct practical redox-active and stable CDI electrode with 3D structure from MXene for highly capacitive and durable desalination application .

Researchers are accustomed to utilizing traditional solid-state and sol–gel routes to synthesize Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP). No regulation mechanism is proposed to illustrate the growth process of NVP in solvothermal environment. In current work, uniform spherical particles with positive charge are synthesized by molecular self-assembly of nanosphere micelles using structural guiding agent polyethylene glycol (PEG) and surfactant Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). Nanoflower-shaped NVP sample is successfully prepared in the 100 % methyl alcohol medium, derived from the plate V 2 O 5 (negative charge) combining with the nuclear nanospheres (positive charge) with the induction of electrostatic attraction. Based on the multi-dimensional tests and molecular dynamic calculation, the protective mechanism of polar solution for NVP system is proposed for the first time, that is, methanol solvent system can better protect the morphological features of NVP than water environment to maintain the original special nanoflower morphology. Due to the distinctive and stabilized nanoflower construction, the optimized NVP60 sample can provide more extra active sites for the efficient de-intercalation of Na + and possess a large contacting area with electrolyte, resulting in the facilitated kinetic characteristics and superior electrochemical performance. The optimized NVP60 cathode possesses superior sodium storage property in both half cell and full cell. This work proposes a synergetic strategy combining theory and experiment to design and synthesize the modified NVP-based cathode materials from the molecular bonding aspect, further promoting the development of high performance cathode for SIBs.

NASICON-type LiZr 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (LZP) has a high bulk ionic conductivity (∼10 −4 S cm −1 ) and a wide electrochemical stability window between 0 and 5.5 V. However, LZP suffers from a problem in which its desirable rhombohedral phase transforms to the triclinic phase (∼10 −8 S cm −1 ) below 50 °C. In this work, we reported a rhombohedral-structured LiZr 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (α-LZP) at room temperature with a high total Li-ion conductivity (2.8 × 10 −6 S cm −1 ) by a microwave sintering process. Moreover, this approach realized a drastic reduction in the sintering temperature from the typical 1200 °C–900 °C with only a 4 h holding time. Using this approach, we also demonstrated the successful synthesis of Ca-incorporated Li 1.2 Ca 0.1 Zr 1.9 (PO 4 ) 3 (LCZP) with an ionic conductivity of 1.7 × 10 −5 S cm −1 .

Highly purified LiOH is a common raw material of cathode active materials of lithium-ion batteries. Its demand is rapidly increasing with the fast development of the electric vehicles. The traditional enrichment process of LiOH relying on water evaporation requires a lot of energy. Here, we demonstrate the ability of NASICON-type Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 membrane electrodialysis to enrich the LiOH aqueous solution with a low concentration. This Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 membrane electrodialysis could extract 99.7% and 96.5% of Li + in 0.1, and 0.01 M LiOH feed solution, respectively, into 1 M LiOH receiving solution. And the transmembrane resistance between feed solution and receiving solution increased by 37.4, 389.5, and 964.6 Ω cm 2 , compared to the value for 1 M of LiOH feed solution as the feed solution concentration decreased to 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001 M, respectively. This quantitative assessment method for the resistance variation is crucial to the potential separation application of Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 membrane electrodialysis in salt-lake brine.

Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 is regarded as one of the most promising solid electrolytes for all solid state lithium ion batteries (ASSLIBS). However, its grain boundary conductivity is still low, which reduces the total conductivity of electrolyte. In this work, in order to further improve the electrical conductivity of Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 , a series of Y doped Li 1.3 Al 0.3-x Y x Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 (x = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075 and 0.15) solid electrolytes were synthesized using a modified solid state method. Effects of Y doping content on morphology, phase and electrical conductivity of Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 electrolyte materials were systematically investigated. All synthetic electrolyte powders show Nasicon-like structure, well-shaped polyhedral morphology as well as good crystallinity. Y dopant content has a great influence on electrochemical properties of electrolytes. The high total conductivity of 7.8 × 10 −4 S/cm at room temperature and a low activation energy of 0.17 eV is obtained for the electrolyte with the Y doping content of 0.075 due to the increasing of grain boundary conductivity, and its electrical conductivity is about 2 times larger than that of the undoped electrolyte. The excellent electrochemical performance is mainly attributed to high electrolyte density which results from the good sintering property of electrolyte materials as well as the existence of YPO 4 phase at grain boundaries. Additionally, this electrolyte has a negligible electronic conductivity. These results suggest that Y doped Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 can be used as an alternative solid electrolyte for all solid state lithium ion batteries.

NASICON-type Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7(PO4)3 (LATP) has attracted a lot of attention because of its high ionic conductivity and stability to air and moisture. However, the size effect of LATP primary particles on ionic conductivity is ignored. In this study, different sizes of LATP particles are prepared to investigate the morphology, relative density, and ionic conductivity of the LATP solid electrolyte. The influences of particle size and sintering temperature on the microstructure, phase composition, and electrical properties of LATP ceramics were systematically studied. The medium-sized LATP particle (2 μm) presents a great microstructure with a high relative density of over 97%, the highest ionic conductivity of 6.7 × 10–4 S cm–1, and an activation energy of 0.418 eV. The Li–Li symmetric cells and Li–LFP batteries delivering good electrochemical performance were fabricated with highly conductive LATP ceramics. These results make significant strides in elucidating the relationship between the particle sizes of LATP and its electrochemical performance.

Rb 2 Ti 1.95 Yb 0.05 (PO 4 ) 3 crystals with langbeinite-type structure were grown by high-temperature solution method. The chemical composition and electronic structure were analyzed using inductive coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The deconvolution of Ti 2p 3/2 photoemission line reveals two peaks at 459.3 eV and 458.1 eV, indicating titanium existence in two valence states: Ti 4+ (459.3 eV) and Ti 3+ (458.1 eV). The reduced BE difference ΔBE (O 1s-Ti 2p 3/2 ) shows stronger ionicity of Ti–O bonds in Rb 2 Ti 1.95 Yb 0.05 (PO 4 ) 3 compared with RbTiOPO 4 . Additionally, UV absorption, specific heat, and second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency were studied. The UV absorption edge of the Rb 2 Ti 1.95 Yb 0.05 (PO 4 ) 3 crystal was observed at 368 nm. The SHG intensity of Rb 2 Ti 1.95 Yb 0.05 (PO 4 ) 3 is 5–6 times greater than that of KDP crystal when the particle size is between 38 and 74 μm.

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.

Sodium super-ionic conductor (NASICON) structured Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP), a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), benefits by its unique three-dimensional (3D) channel structure. However, the inherent characteristics of NVP (such as low electrical conductivity) usually lead to inferior rate and long-cycling performance, which miss the requirements of practical application in electrical energy storage systems (ESSs). Herein, we propose the synthesis of porous high-crystalline Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C nanoplates (NVP/C-P) via hydrothermal method and post-calcination. The porous nanoplate structure provides increased specific surface area and shortened diffusion pathway for ion/electron transport. Consequently, NVP/C-P cathodes exhibit a high specific capacity (117 mAh g −1 , 0.2 C), exceptional rate performance (76.5 mAh g −1 , 100 C) and long cyclic stability (10,000 cycles).
