Single-Crystalline Ni-Rich LiNi x Mn y Co 1– x – y O 2 Cathode Materials: A Perspective

To drive electrical vehicles for long-range, the energy density of Li-ion batteries must be further enhanced, which requires high-energy cathode materials. Among them, Ni-rich LiNi x Mn y Co 1–x–y O 2 (x > 0.5, NMC) is one of the most promising candidates. However, traditional poly-crystal (PC) NMC materials, whose particles are secondary clusters consisting of many primary crystalline particles, are susceptible to pulverization along the inter grain/particle boundaries, resulting in poor cycle stability. Recently, single crystal (SC)-NMC cathodes are proposed as they are believed to have several merits such as high structural integrity, lower interface with electrolyte, and potentially better energy storage performance. Nevertheless, several queries, such as the merits of SC structure and the mechanism for their structure degradation, are still controversial and required to be addressed. Here, in this study, the synthesis parameters, properties, energy storage as well as safety of SC- and PC-NMC cathodes with various Ni contents are critically reviewed, for clarifying the merits and drawbacks of SC. Furthermore, the study focuses on the recent advances of insight mechanisms and strategies for stabilizing the structure/interface by doping, morphology engineering, surface coating, and composition tailoring. The remaining challenges, safety concerns, and perspectives to enhance the electrochemical performance of SC-NMC cathodes for electric vehicle application are followed.

Investigation of electrode-electrolyte interfaces to enable non-flammable Li-ion batteries operating up to 125°C with liquid electrolyte

Non-flammable and high-temperature stable ionic liquid (IL)-based electrolytes could eliminate catastrophic battery failures and improve battery safety, but their poor electrochemical interaction with the LiNi x Mn y Co z O 2 (NMC) family of cathodes is a long-standing problem due to severe parasitic reactions at high temperature. Understanding surface and bulk structural mechanisms of NMC-type cathodes at elevated operational temperature is of paramount importance to facilitate stable electrochemical performance. Here, we report a non-flammable phosphonium IL-based cell chemistry that offers stable electrode-electrolyte interfaces, leading to electrochemical performance up to 125°C and high-temperature safety. We combine electrochemistry with multimodal X-ray spectroscopy methods to understand interfaces at elevated temperature (100°C). This nanoscale understating enables a proof-of-concept high-temperature cylindrical cell (14500), and the design achieves an average Coulombic efficiency of ≈99.5% up to 300 cycles at 100°C. The results ascertain the significance of depth-dependent degradation at the interface, guiding room-temperature Li-ion technology toward extreme-temperature applications.

Anodic Shock-Triggered Exsolution of Metal Nanoparticles from Perovskite Oxide

Nanoparticles decorated electrodes (NDEs) are useful in fuel cells, electrolyzers, water treatment, and chemical synthesis. Here, in this study, we show that by rapidly bringing a mixed ionic-electronic conductor outside its electrochemical stability window, one can achieve uniform dispersion of metallic nanoparticles inside its bulk and at the surface and improve its electrocatalytic performance when back under normal functional conditions. Surprisingly, this can happen under anodic as well as cathodic current/voltage shocks in an ABO 3 perovskite oxide, La 0.4 Ca 0.4 Ti 0.88 Fe 0.06 Ni 0.06 O 3-δ (LCTFN), across a wide range of H 2 /O 2 gas environments at 800 °C. One possible mechanism for bulk Fe 0 /Ni 0 precipitation under anodic shock condition is the incomplete oxygen oxidation (O 2 – → O α– , 0 < α < 2), migration and escape of oxygen to interfaces, and “whiplash” transition-metal reduction due to low electronic conductivity. We show that both cathodic and anodic shocks can produce NDEs to enhance electrocatalytic performance, potentially improving the flexibility of this approach in practical devices.

Detection of a Cobalt-Containing Interphase at the Li 6 PS 5 Cl-NMC111 Interface by In Situ μ XANES and EIS

Sulfide electrolyte all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASLBs) with uncoated Li-Ni x Mn y Co 1–x–y O 2 (NMC) cathodes suffer from a large capacity loss during initial cycling and an increase in cell impedance. Decomposition reactions are known to occur at the Li 6 PS 5 Cl-NMC111 interface due to incompatibility between the two materials. If a stabilizing coating is applied to the NMC, it delivers full capacity during initial charge. However, the loss in capacity during discharge still occurs. The interface was studied by μ XANES and through EIS analysis. A chemically-formed interphase was detected by μ XANES, evident from reduction of Co at an uncoated NMC particle surface. This interphase was produced by decomposition at rest. To study the effect of the interphase on electrochemically active surface area, piecewise in situ EIS was performed and the data was modeled using a transmission line model (TLM). The charge transfer resistance R CT was used to estimate the volume specific active surface area (a act ). The median value for a act was 296 cm –1 , a factor of 7.5 lower than the theoretical value of 2216 cm –1 . This provided evidence of a lower electrochemically active surface area in the ASLB.

Bipolar Membranes for Ion Management in (Photo)Electrochemical Energy Conversion

Conspectus (Photo)electrochemical energy conversion is important in the development of a carbon-neutral energy economy because it can provide a pathway for mitigating the intermittency of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. In order to operate efficiently, these technologies, which include photoelectrochemical cells, water and CO 2 electrolyzers, fuel cells, and redox flow batteries, require fast charge transfer kinetics at the electrode/electrolyte interface as well as robust ion management in the electrolyte. In conventional electrolyzers and fuel cells, the electrolyte is strongly acidic or basic and ionic current is carried by H + or OH – ions. In contrast, photoelectrodes and electrocatalysts for water splitting are often studied in buffered solutions. The question of ion balance in these systems led us to analyze the polarization losses due to ion concentration gradients in cells that employed various buffer–membrane combinations. Continuously driving the buffer ions across an ionomer membrane not only lowers the buffer capacity of an aqueous electrolyte but also introduces pH gradients that result in significant energy losses. To address the problem, we and other groups have studied the use of reverse-biased bipolar membranes (BPMs) in (photo)electrolytic cells. BPMs consist of an anion exchange layer (AEL) laminated with a cation exchange layer (CEL) and are usually equipped with a catalytic layer in between to accelerate the water dissociation reaction. At the AEL/CEL interface, water dissociates into protons and hydroxide ions, which replenish those consumed at the cathode and anode. Compared to conventional water electrolyzers with proton/anion exchange membranes (PEM/AEM), BPM electrolyzers provide the unique advantage of continuously operating the cathode and anode under different pH conditions, which is desirable when the two electrode reactions have different pH requirements. BPMs also enable the use of buffered electrolytes at pH values that are optimized for electrode stability and product selectivity in applications such as CO 2 electrolysis. Product crossover losses and CO 2 pumping can be dramatically reduced in BPM-based CO 2 electrolyzers, relative to conventional alkaline membranes, by electrostatic repulsion (of anionic products) and electroosmotic drag (for neutral products). BPM-based gas fed CO 2 electrolyzers can achieve high current density, but they suffer from low Faradaic efficiency (FE) due to the acidic local environment of the CEL. This problem can be mitigated by adding an aqueous buffering layer or by creating a weak acid cation exchange film on the CEL face of the membrane. The use of BPMs in fuel cells and redox flow batteries offers some interesting advantages. Configurations with both reverse and forward bias have been studied, but forward bias has been favored due to material compatibility, reaction kinetics, and thermodynamic considerations. The net reaction at the AEL/CEL interface is the acid–base neutralization reaction, which has a high inherent reaction rate constant, but in the BPM is limited to a nanometric space-charge layer and requires efficient catalysis to achieve high current density. Understanding the mechanism of the acid–base neutralization and the opposite process, the water dissociation reaction, will be essential for improving the performance of forward-biased BPMs. In conclusion, this Account reviews our current understanding of the working mechanisms of BPMs and discusses how we can use them to effectively manage ions for various (photo)electrochemical applications.

Physical and Electrochemical Characterization of Aluminum Electrodes during Electrocoagulation

Electrocoagulation (EC) of synthetic groundwater was conducted using a sacrificial aluminum electrode in a flow-through EC reactor with short retention times (<1 min) under varying hydrodynamic and electrochemical conditions. The treated water was allowed to settle for 24 h and achieved silicate removal of up to 50 ± 4%, and hardness removal of 11 ± 1%. Physical, chemical, and electrochemical characterization was performed to explore changes in electrode surface morphology and composition. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) showed that chemical reactions at the electrode/water interface are sensitive to changes in the immediate chemical environment. We demonstrate that the most energy-intensive step in EC is aluminum dissolution at the anode, which remained fairly constant due to the continuous renewal of the anode’s surface, a result of aluminum dissolution. At the cathode, a structural change in the oxide layer, from γ-Al 2 O 3 to gibbsite, was detected by grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction, which decreased the resistance to charge transfer at the cathode surface, resulting in decreased electrode resistance. The high flow rate in the system minimized the accumulation of aluminum hydroxide solids and aluminum ions at the electrode/water interface, which minimized the formation of thick scalants and amorphous Al(OH) 3 on the cathode and anode, respectively. In conclusion, it was further demonstrated by EIS that under these conditions the resistance to charge transfer was constant throughout the duration of the experiment.

Cobalt-free and high-rate stable 5V lithium nickel manganese oxide spinel cathodes enabled via surface oxygen vacancies

Spinel LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 offers both the high-rate, low-cost and safety advantages of LiFePO 4 and the high energy density of LiNiₓMnᵧCo₁₋ₓ₋ᵧO₂ and LiNiₓCoᵧAlzO₂ cathodes. However, the large operating voltage of these materials induces electrolyte oxidation, which degrades the interface and drives Mn dissolution. These reactions are further exacerbated at high rates due to temperature rise. In this study, we discover that ammoniacal treatment followed by annealing introduces a high density of oxygen vacancies in the “near-surface region” of LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 particles. These vacancies release electrons changing the oxidation state of Mn and suppressing its tendency to oxidize the electrolyte. Further, these vacancies enhance the electrode’s electronic conductivity (by ∼3-fold) and Li + diffusivity (by ∼2-fold) greatly improving charge transport, especially when operated at high rates. This results in an across-the-board improvement in self-discharge, specific capacity, energy density, rate capability, coulombic efficiency and cycling stability. When cycled at ∼200 mA g −1 , the capacity fade averaged over 3000 cycles for the surface vacancy-enriched material is ∼0.0167% per cycle compared to an order of magnitude higher fade rate for the baseline material. In conclusion, these findings reveal the potential of targeted surface oxygen vacancy doping to develop cobalt-free and high energy density cathodes that tolerate fast charging and deliver improved cycle life.

Direct Recycling of Lithium-Ion Battery Cathodes: A Multi-Stage Annealing Process to Recover the Pristine Structure and Performance

Direct recycling is an alternative low-cost process that retains the structure of the lithium-ion battery cathode rather than going through materials dissolution and repurification. While the process shows promise, various steps need to be better understood and studied to identify possible roadblocks, cost intensive steps, and needed variations in protocol that may be necessary based on the feedstock of recycled cathodes available. In this study, we have evaluated the process of thermal relithiation as it applies to end-of-life cathode materials. For recovered end-of-life cathodes, approximately 20% of the useable lithium has been lost due to solid electrolyte interface formation, parasitic reactions, and particle isolation; this lost lithium contributes to higher cell impedance and a gradual shift in electrode potentials. As a first step in the direct recycling process, this lithium needs to be restored not only to recover capacity but also to eliminate surface vacancies and hinder surface reconstruction that may increase impedance and impact performance. Here, we have optimized a coating method followed by a two-stage annealing process that restores a model delithiated NMC333 material to pristine performance. Comparisons to single-stage processes are made, and new characterization tools have been used to better understand the processes.

Decoupling electrode kinetics to elucidate reaction mechanisms in alkaline water electrolysis

Alkaline water electrolysis (AWE) presents key advantages, including reduced material costs, enhanced operational stability, and compatibility with non-precious metal catalysts, positioning it as a scalable route for hydrogen production. In this study, we introduce a minimally invasive single-cell configuration incorporating a reference electrode via diaphragm extension to form an internal ion channel. This setup, combined with an interfaced potentiostat and auxiliary electrometer, enables real-time, independent monitoring of anode and cathode behavior, offering high-resolution electrochemical diagnostics. While it is well established that the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) exhibits sluggish kinetics in alkaline media, our study reveals that this limitation persists even in practical AWE systems where nickel-based substrates are used as electrodes. This observation is supported by both experimental data and voltage breakdown modeling. Arrhenius-type analysis reveals that localized electric fields induced by catalysts shift the reaction kinetics from classical Butler–Volmer behavior toward a Marcus-like regime, where interfacial molecular dynamics and bimolecular charge transfer dominate. We propose a semi-empirical model and a surficial reaction mechanism to describe these dynamics. This work underscores the critical need for cathode innovation and provides a rational framework for designing advanced catalysts and electrode architectures to optimize AWE performance.

Unraveling the core of fuel cell performance: engineering the ionomer/catalyst interface

The biggest obstacle to the widespread implementation of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is their cost, primarily due to the use of platinum catalysts. The high intrinsic catalyst activity exhibited on a rotating disk electrode (RDE) is rarely realized in a membrane electrode assembly (MEA), which is a long-standing challenge for PEMFCs and a cause of low catalyst utilization. To translate the high RDE performance of a catalyst into a MEA, the design of an ideal ionomer/catalyst interface is proposed: a thin, conformal ionomer film covers the maximum surface of a Pt nanoparticle and thus simultaneously maximizes catalyst utilization, (i.e., high mass activity and electrochemically active surface area) and O 2 diffusion rate (i.e., high current density performance) without compromising proton conduction. Building such an interface is a long-standing challenge due to the lack of interaction between the ionomer and catalyst particles, resulting in large ionomer agglomerates and inhomogeneous ionomer coverage over the catalyst nanoparticle, with consequent poor fuel cell performance. In this work, this ionomer/catalyst interface has been engineered, utilizing the electrostatic attraction between positively charged catalyst and negatively charged ionomer particles in a catalyst ink and preserved in a solid catalyst layer. As a result, this interface leads to previously unachieved proton exchange membrane fuel cell performance in terms of both catalyst utilization (75% vs. 45%) and peak/rated power density (i.e., 1.430/0.930 W cm -2 , H 2 /air, cathode Pt loading: 0.1 mgPt cm -2 ) for pure Pt catalysts, even better than those of Pt alloy catalysts. This work demonstrates the formation of an interface in the liquid phase (using ultra-small-angle X-ray scattering in combination with cryo-TEM, isothermal–titration–calorimetry) and the preservation of the interface in the solid catalyst layer (using TEM) and estimates the effective coverage and thickness of the ionomer film (using limiting current density, RDE and fuel cell performance).

Regulation of Surface Defect Chemistry toward Stable Ni-Rich Cathodes

Surface reconstruction of Ni-rich layered oxides (NLO) degrades the cycling stability and safety of high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), which challenges typical surface-modification approaches to build a robust interface with electrochemical activity. Here, a strategy of leveraging the low-strain analogues of Li- and Mn-rich layered oxides (LMR) to reconstruct a stable surface on the Ni-rich layered cathodes is proposed. The new surface structure not only consists of a gradient chemical composition but also contains a defect-rich structure regarding the formation of oxygen vacancies and cationic ordering, which can simultaneously facilitate lithium diffusion and stabilize the crystal structure during the (de)lithiation. These features in the NLO lead to a dramatic improvement in electrochemical properties, especially the cyclability under high voltage cycling, exhibiting the 30% increase in capacity retention after 200 cycles at the current density of 1 C (3.0-4.6 V). We report the findings offer a facile and effective way to regulate defect chemistry and surface structure in parallel on Ni-rich layered structure cathodes to achieve high-energy density LIBs.

Conformal hetero-electrolyte interface between soft oxyhalides and garnet enables low-pressure lithium-reservoir-free solid-state batteries

The operation of solid-state batteries with a lithium metal anode and a high voltage cathode requires solid electrolytes (SEs) that are chemically stable with lithium, have a wide electrochemical window, and accommodate volume changes in the electrodes. Unfortunately, no SE has exhibited satisfactory mechanical and electrochemical properties that fit these requirements to date. Dual solid electrolyte systems that use a different SE for the anolyte and catholyte present a viable solution. Here, we focus on oxyhalide SEs that demonstrate superior ionic conductivity and cathode compatibility, where their lithium metal reactivity and poor reduction stability can be resolved using a lithium garnet (Li 6.5 La 3 Zr 1.5 Ta 0.5 O 12 , LLZTO) separator. Nonetheless, this imposes a new hetero-electrolyte (H-E) interface at the anolyte|catholyte contact that defines the ion transport across the boundary. We report its promising properties, which are deconvoluted from the electrical measurements of bilayer symmetric cells, for three representative oxyhalide catholytes, LiNbOCl 4 , LiTaOCl 4 , and Li 3 Al 3 O 2 Cl 8 . Pressure-dependent measurements reveal that the relative softness of the oxyhalides (hardness ≤0.4 GPa) enables H-E resistances lower than 150 Ω cm 2 at 2–3 MPa. Mesoscale modelling reveals that the transfer-active contact area of oxyhalides with LLZTO is about 2–3-fold higher than that of argyrodite, Li 6 PS 5 Cl. The low H-E resistance of the LiNbOCl 4 |Li 6.5 La 3 Zr 1.5 Ta 0.5 O 12 dual electrolyte enables the cycling of a Li|LiNi 0.82 Mn 0.07 Co 0.11 O 2 full cell with a high discharge capacity (200 mA h g −1 ) at 60 °C and ∼7 MPa. Importantly, we demonstrate a Li-reservoir-free full cell with high Coulombic efficiency (>99.5%) and capacity at 1 MPa using this approach coupled with a garnet-silver interlayer.

Cathode Electrolyte Diagnostics Based on Scanning Probe Microscopy

Various processes lead to degradation of cathodes in lithium-ion batteries. Questions remain regarding mechanisms of many of these processes. Probe microscopy methods including scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) are capable of directly probing processes at the cathode/electrolyte interface. SECM uses a small electrode to perform rapid electrochemical analysis of transient species generated at an active cathode/electrolyte interface. This paper discusses the background of the SECM instrument and its application to lithium-ion battery research. We also describe the application of SECM methods to the study of cathode degradation processes observed in lithium-ion batteries. Specifically, we focus on characterizing the dissolution of manganese from LiMn2O4 (LMO) based on recent debate in the literature. We describe experiments to observe and characterize the electrochemical properties of manganese complexes emerging from degrading LMO electrode materials.

Redox-stable symmetrical solid oxide fuel cells with exceptionally high performance enabled by electrode/electrolyte diffuse interface

Here, in this study, we report a high performance and redox-stable symmetrical solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) based on (Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 ) (Mo 0.1 Fe 0.9 )O 3-δ (BSMF) electrode and La 0.8 Sr 0.2 Ga 0.8 Mg 0.2 O 3-δ (LSGM) electrolyte. BSMF is able to operate both as anode and cathode. Excellent electrocatalytic activity has been achieved on BSMF towards hydrogen oxidation and oxygen reduction. Due to its closely matched lattice parameter to LSGM electrolyte, a unique diffuse interface is formed between BSMF and LSGM. Compared to a clean interface, e.g. BSMF/gadolinium doped ceria interface, this diffuse interface promotes the performance of BSMF electrode 1–1.8 times in 600–800 °C. Polarization resistance of the BSMF/LSGM specimen is as low as 0.047 and 0.007 Ωcm 2 in humidified H 2 and in air at 800 °C, respectively. On the BSMF/LSGM/BSMF symmetrical cell, a maximum power density of 2.28 W/cm 2 is achieved at 800 °C, the highest among with redox-stable ceramic electrodes to the best of our knowledge. Redox stability of this cell is confirmed. The role of anode and cathode is reversed back and forth in different operation modes. No apparent degradation is observed through 4 cycles within a 110 h operation period. These findings demonstrate that (Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 ) (M o0.1 Fe 0.9 )O 3-δ coupled with LSGM electrolyte is an excellent choice to build a high performance, redox-stable SOFC.

Multifunctional Films Deposited by Atomic Layer Deposition for Tailored Interfaces of Electrochemical Systems

A new strategy for electrochemical interfaces that utilizes multilayer films deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) is introduced. Manganese-rich and nickel-rich cathode oxides were coated with a novel bilayer film of metal fluorides. Subsequent exposure to prolonged, high-voltage electrochemical cycling vs graphite electrodes revealed that the bilayer film can greatly enhance the high-voltage stability of cathode oxides. In particular, in manganese-rich cells, capacity fade due to manganese dissolution was substantially reduced and impedance rise was virtually eliminated. Furthermore, in nickel-rich NMC-811 cells, impedance rise was reduced by ~80%, compared to the NMC-811 baseline, after ~300 h of high-voltage exposure during cycling. Here, the multilayer film strategy presents an exciting opportunity for tailoring designs and materials for electrochemical interfaces in advanced lithium-ion batteries and beyond.

Enabling High Capacity and Coulombic Efficiency for Li-NCM811 Cells Using a Highly Concentrated Electrolyte

Lithium metal batteries suffer from dendrite formation and the associated safety hazards of thermal runaway reactions. In this study, we report the performances of a highly concentrated electrolyte (HCE) and a dilute LiPF6 electrolyte in lithium metal cells using LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn0.1O 2 . While the HCE exhibits lower bulk ionic conductivity than the dilute LiPF6 electrolyte, the cell conductivity is higher for the HCE system, indicating higher thermodynamic stability of the electrolyte against the electrodes. Full cell cycling demonstrates higher capacity for the HCE system, which declines as a function of cycle number due to the formation of decomposition products, similar to the dilute LiPF 6 system. The origin of the enhanced performance is the higher stability of the HCE against a Li metal anode as compared to the dilute LiPF 6 electrolyte. Cycling at higher temperatures further enhances the performance of the HCE, which is more thermally stable than the dilute LiPF 6 electrolyte.

New Approaches to Improved PEM Fuel Cell Catalyst Layers

Polymer-electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel-cells are one of the most promising energy conversion technologies for renewable clean energy applications. A major challenge preventing their widespread commercialization is achieving high performance with lowloadings of platinum group metal (PGM) catalysts. One of the factors driving performance limitations in the cell is the mass transport losses within the cathode catalyst layers due to sluggish oxygen-reduction reactions occurring at the platinum-ionomer interface, which is believed to be linked to reduced transport of ions and oxygen. A viable solution to reduce the transport resistances in the catalyst layers is to create new ionomers that can provide good ion and oxygen transport needed to accomplish high-performing fuel cell catalysts. Characterization of transport properties of ionomers for various molecular architectures is the key step, in the effort to create and identify the optimized polymer structure with improved transport. Using this approach, Tetramer Technologies and LBNL propose improved fuel-cell catalyst ionomers based on Tetramers proprietary polymer chemistry, as highlighted under subtopic 17a Innovative Approaches Toward Discovery and Development of Improved Ionomers for Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell Catalyst Layer.
