Fundamental studies of thermal and electrical transport in microporous metal-organic frameworks

In this work, we established porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as designer conductors of electrons and ions relevant to fundamental research and technological applications. MOFs are porous, crystalline materials composed of organic linkers and inorganic nodes. While most MOFs are insulating with respect to ionic and electronic charge carriers, a number of exceptions have been reported in recent years. Electrically conductive MOFs are highly attractive for applications including electrical energy storage, chemiresistive sensing, and optoelectronics because of their high surface areas and tunable chemical properties. Ion-conducting MOFs are desirable for the synthetically tunable size, shape, and polarity of their pore environments, allowing for the tailored development of solid state electrolytes for metal-ion batteries. We developed systematic strategies for the design of MOFs that conduct ions and electrons. For each objective, we leveraged the versatile chemistry of these materials to obtain frameworks with targeted properties towards electronic or ionic charge carriers. We studied the factors that govern electrical transport in MOFs in order to gain fundamental knowledge of this emerging class of materials. We took several approaches to tackle this problem from multiple angles. Namely, we synthesized and characterized new frameworks, investigated post-synthetic modifications to enhance conductivity, and correlated theory and experiment to uncover new mechanistic findings. These results, which put forth new design principles for conductive MOFs, move the field toward one of the DOE Basic Energy Sciences Grand Challenges: to “design and perfect atom- and energy-efficient synthesis of revolutionary new forms of matter with tailored properties.” In addition to investigating the movement of electrons in MOFs, we also studied the movement of other charged species in MOFs, such as protons, lithium, and magnesium. Proton-conducting frameworks could be appealing materials for solid state electrolytes in fuel cells. In addition, they contain crystallographically defined proton-conducting channels, in contrast with state-of-the-art polymer membranes such as Nafion, which are amorphous. Controlling pore size and polarity in MOFs can thus shed light on proton and other ion transport mechanisms, ultimately enabling the design of more advanced electrolyte materials and potentially novel electrical energy storage materials.

Lithium and sodium superionic conductors

Presented are new, earth-abundant lithium superionic conductors, Li3Y(PS4)2 and L15PS4Cl2, that emerged from a comprehensive screening of the Li—P—S and Li—M—P—S chemical spaces. Both candidates are derived from the relatively unexplored quaternary silver thiophosphates. One key enabler of this discovery is the development of a first-of-its-kind high-throughput first principles screening approach that can exclude candidates unlikely to satisfy the stringent Li+ conductivity requirements using a minimum of computational resources. Both candidates are predicted to be synthesizable, and are electronically insulating. Systems and methods according to present principles enable new, all-solid-state rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.

Fast Li-Ion Conductivity in Superadamantanoid Lithium Thioborate Halides

Lithium thioborates are promising fast Li-ion conducting materials, with similar properties to their lithium thiophosphate counterparts that have enabled the development of solid-state Li-ion batteries. By comparison, thioborates have scarcely been developed, however, offering new space for materials discovery. In this work, we report a new class of lithium thioborate halides that adopt a so-called supertetrahedral adamantanoid structure that houses mobile lithium ions and halide anions within interconnected 3D structural channels. Investigation of the structure using single-crystal XRD, neutron powder diffraction, and neutron PDF reveals significant lithium and halide anion disorder. The phases are non-stoichiometric, adopting slightly varying halide contents within the materials. These new superadamantanoid materials exhibit high ionic conductivities up to 1.4 mS cm -1 , which can be effectively tuned by the polarizability of the halide anion within the channels.

Fundamental Thermodynamic, Kinetic, and Mechanical Properties of Lithium and Its Alloys

Lithium alloying reactions are beneficial in promoting uniform plating and stripping of lithium metal in all-solid-state batteries. First-principles calculations are performed to predict thermodynamic, kinetic, and mechanical properties of lithium and several important Li–M alloys (M = Mg, Ag, Zn, Al, Ga, In, Sn, Sb, and Bi). While the Li–Mg binary system forms a solid solution, most other lithium–metal alloys prefer stoichiometric intermetallic compounds with common local motifs that enable fast Li diffusion. Lithium and Li-rich alloys exhibit an unusually flat energy landscape along paths that connect BCC to close-packed structures like FCC and HCP, with important implications for mechanical properties. Very low migration barriers for Li diffusion that rival those of superion conductors are predicted, both in pure Li and in Li–M intermetallics. However, vacancy concentration, which is crucial for substitutional diffusion, is predicted to be low in metallic Li and most Li–M intermetallics. Compounds such as B32 LiAl and LiGa as well as D0 3 Li 3 Sb and Li 3 Bi exhibit structural vacancies at higher ends of their voltage windows, which together with low migration barriers leads to exceptionally high Li mobilities. In the Li–Mg solid solution, the addition of Mg is found to decrease the vacancy tracer diffusion coefficient by an order of magnitude.

On Shaft Data Acquisition System (OSDAS)

On Shaft Data Acquisition System (OSDAS) is a rugged, compact, multiple-channel data acquisition computer system that is designed to record data from instrumentation while operating under extreme rotational centrifugal or gravitational acceleration forces. This system, which was developed for the Heritage Fuel Air Turbine Test (HFATT) program, addresses the problem of recording multiple channels of high-sample-rate data on most any rotating test article by mounting the entire acquisition computer onboard with the turbine test article. With the limited availability of slip ring wires for power and communication, OSDAS utilizes its own resources to provide independent power and amplification for each instrument. Since OSDAS utilizes standard PC technology as well as shared code interfaces with the next-generation, real-time health monitoring system (SPARTAA Scalable Parallel Architecture for Real Time Analysis and Acquisition), this system could be expanded beyond its current capabilities, such as providing advanced health monitoring capabilities for the test article. High-conductor-count slip rings are expensive to purchase and maintain, yet only provide a limited number of conductors for routing instrumentation off the article and to a stationary data acquisition system. In addition to being limited to a small number of instruments, slip rings are prone to wear quickly, and introduce noise and other undesirable characteristics to the signal data. This led to the development of a system capable of recording high-density instrumentation, at high sample rates, on the test article itself, all while under extreme rotational stress. OSDAS is a fully functional PC-based system with 48 channels of 24-bit, high-sample-rate input channels, phase synchronized, with an onboard storage capacity of over 1/2-terabyte of solid-state storage. This recording system takes a novel approach to the problem of recording multiple channels of instrumentation, integrated with the test article itself, packaged in a compact/rugged form factor, consuming limited power, all while rotating at high turbine speeds.

Solid State Ionics: Materials Development by Multiscale Modeling and Advanced Manufacturing Techniques

Solid-state ionic materials are an important enabling technology for energy conversion and storage. Solid-state batteries would be a safer and higher energy density alternative to commercially available lithium ion batteries (LIB), however their implementation requires ion conduction in solids at room temperature to occur on the same level as the current generation of liquid electrolytes. Microstructural modifications have been demonstrated to play a major role on ion transport through the control of grain boundary interfaces, which traditionally serve as “blocking” layers. Ultimately, these materials will be fabricated in thin films form as electrolytes in order to minimize ohmic losses in electrochemical devices. This work uses advanced manufacturing techniques in combination with theoretical modeling to implement a science-based approach in the deposition of thin films ion conductors with controlled microstructures used in ceramic energy conversion and storage devices.

Quantitative Measurement of Li-Ion Concentration and Diffusivity in Solid-State Electrolyte

Here, we present a quantitative method to measure the concentration and diffusivity of Li ion in a solid-state electrolyte with nanoscale depth resolution. We designed a standard sample with different depths of trenches and used time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy, three-dimensional (3D) optical microscopy, and electrochemical strain microscopy to obtain effective Li-ion concentration and the corresponding diffusivity as a function of depth. As a result, we verified the dependence of electromechanical strain induced by ionic oscillation on mobile-ion concentration. We also showed the diffusivity change as a function of effective concentration and discussed the difference in diffusivity near the surface and inside the bulk. Our method can be widely used for electromechanical strain in various ionic conductors, rendering our technique universal for quantitative analysis of ionic dynamics at a multiscale.

Mg-Ion Conduction in Antiperovskite Solid Electrolytes Revealed by 25 Mg Ultrahigh Field NMR and First-Principles Calculations

Magnesium-ion batteries hold the potential to outperform the energy density of lithium-ion batteries, given the divalent charge carried by each Mg 2+ cation, but remain in an early stage of development. Here, in this study, 25 Mg solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) is used to gain insight into the local structure and Mg-ion dynamics of candidate Mg-ion solid electrolytes, the antiperovskites Mg 3 SbN and Mg 3 AsN. Using the highest available magnetic field (35.2 T) for high-resolution solid-state NMR, the largest 25 Mg quadrupole coupling constants (C Q ) yet measured of up to 22 MHz are reported and corroborated by first-principles calculations. Predicted C Q values are shown to correlate with the antiperovskite’s tolerance factor; thus, 25 Mg NMR linewidths can report on lattice distortions and phase stability of these antiperovskites. Variable-temperature 25 Mg NMR spectra demonstrate changes at elevated temperatures, ascribed to Mg-ion motional effects. 25 Mg T 1 relaxometry measurements at ultrahigh field reveal a lower activation energy for the more distorted Mg 3 AsN phase, matching computational predictions of a lower energy barrier for Mg 2+ ion migration and suggesting that additional scrutiny of antiperovskites as Mg-ion conductors is warranted. Given the inherent challenges of 25 Mg NMR, this work demonstrates the benefits of combining ultrahigh field NMR spectroscopy, advanced pulse sequences, modern signal processing, and first-principles calculations to facilitate NMR of quadrupolar nuclei as a tool to probe the local structure and ion dynamics in beyond-Li battery materials.

Lithium ion batteries have come from a dream with titanium disulfide to enabling the communications revolution and are enabling renewable energy. Much can be learnt from these early studies, that will allow the attainment of a fossil-free society and a sustainable environment.

Pyrochlore-type lanthanide titanates and zirconates: Synthesis, structural peculiarities, and properties

This contribution provides a thorough examination of the structural characteristics of pyrochlore-type lanthanide titanates and zirconates Ln2Ti2O7 and Ln2Zr2O7, across various length scales. This paper also examines their processing, interesting physical properties (electrical, magnetic, and thermal characteristics), and responses to high pressure and ion irradiation. Brief sections on the elemental oxides' crystal chemistry, pertinent phase diagrams, and energetics of defect formation are also provided. Pyrochlore-type Ln2Ti2O7 and Ln2Zr2O7 stand out as truly multifunctional materials. Moreover, they have emerged as fascinating materials due to magnetic geometrical frustration, arising from the ordering of magnetic Ln3+ and non-magnetic Ti4+ (or Zr4+) cations into separate, interpenetrating lattices of corner-sharing tetrahedra. This results in a diverse array of exotic magnetic ground states, such as spin-ice (e.g., Dy2Ti2O7 or Ho2Ti2O7) or quantum spin ice (e.g., Tb2Ti2O7), observed at both low and room temperatures. They also exhibit varied electrical and electrochemical characteristics. Some members such as Gd2Zr2O7, function as fast ion conductors with a conductivity (σ) of ≈10−2 S·cm−1 at 800 °C and activation energy (Ea) ranging from 0.85 to 1.52 eV, depending on the degree of structural disorder. Others, such as Gd2TiMoO7, are mixed ionic-electronic conductors with σ ≈ 25 S·cm−1 at 1000 °C, making them promising candidate materials for applications in energy conversion and storage devices and oxygen separation membranes. Their exceptionally low thermal conductivity (e.g., κ ∼ 1.1–1.7 W·m−1·K−1 between 700 and 1200 °C for Ln2Zr2O7), close to the glass-like lower limit of highly disordered solids, positions them as valuable materials for thermal barrier coatings. They can also effectively accommodate actinides (e.g., Pu, Np, Cm, Am) in solid solutions and sustain prolonged exposure to radiation due to alpha-decay events, while preserving the integrity of the periodic atomic structure. Proposed as major components in actinide-bearing ceramics, they contribute to the long-term immobilization and disposal of long-lived waste radionuclides from nuclear programs. Some of these properties are displayed simultaneously, opening avenues for new applications. Despite the wealth of data available in the literature, this review highlights the need for a better understanding of order/disorder processes in pyrochlore-type materials and the influence of the structural length scale on their physical and chemical properties. Recent experimental evidence has revealed that pyrochlore short-range structure is far more complex than originally thought. Moreover, pyrochlore local structure is now believed to include short-range, lower symmetry, ordered domains, such as the orthorhombic weberite-type of structure. Notably, short- and long-range structures appear decoupled across different length scales and temperature regimes, and these differences persist even in well-ordered samples. We believe that the pyrochlore structure offers a unique opportunity for examining the interplay between chemical composition, defect chemistry, and properties. In Memoriam: Rodney C. Ewing, Fondly Remembered.

High-Temperature Proton-Conducting Ceramics Developed

High-temperature protonic conductors (HTPC) are needed for hydrogen separation, hydrogen sensors, fuel cells, and hydrogen production from fossil fuels. The HTPC materials for hydrogen separation at high temperatures are foreseen to be metal oxides with the perovskite structure A(sup 2+)B(sup 4+)C(sup 2-, sub 3) and with the trivalent cation (M(sup 3+)) substitution at the B(sup 4+)-site to introduce oxygen vacancies. The high affinity for hydrogen ions (H(sup +)) is advantageous for protonic transport, but it increases the reactivity toward water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2), which can lead to premature membrane failure. In addition, there are considerable technological challenges related to the processing of HTPC materials. The high melting point and multi-cation chemistry of HTPC materials creates difficulties in in achieving high-density, single-phase membranes by solid-state sintering. The presence of secondary phases and grain-boundary interfaces are detrimental to the protonic conduction and environmental stability of polycrystalline HTPC materials.

Solid-state rigid-rod polymer composite electrolytes with nanocrystalline lithium ion pathways

A critical challenge for next-generation lithium-based batteries lies in development of electrolytes that enable thermal safety along with use of high-energy-density electrodes. We describe molecular ionic composite (MIC) electrolytes based on an aligned liquid crystalline polymer combined with ionic liquids and concentrated Li salt. This high strength (200 MPa) and non-flammable solid electrolyte possesses outstanding Li + conductivity (1 mS cm -1 at 25 °C) and electrochemical stability (5.6 V vs Li|Li + ) while suppressing dendrite growth and exhibiting low interfacial resistance (32 Ω cm 2 ) and overpotentials (≤ 120 mV @ 1 mA cm -2 ) during Li symmetric cell cycling. A heterogeneous salt doping process modifies a locally ordered polymer-ion assembly to incorporate an inter-grain network filled with defective LiFSI & LiBF 4 nanocrystals, strongly enhancing Li + conduction. Furthermore, this modular material fabrication platform shows promise for safe and high-energy-density energy storage and conversion applications, incorporating the fast transport of ceramic-like conductors with the superior flexibility of polymer electrolytes.

Resistive Switching of Spinel Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 Lithium-Ion Battery Material for Neuromorphic Computing

The rapid rise of AI has exposed significant limitations in conventional Von Neumann computing architecture, particularly in regard to speed and energy efficiency. To address these challenges, researchers are exploring a brain-inspired neuromorphic architecture that mimics biological neural networks, enabling massive parallel processing with reduced power consumption for complex AI computational demands. Recent interest has focused on utilizing battery electrodes and solid electrolyte materials for their resistive switching properties in developing a neuromorphic architecture. These properties are precisely tuned through local- and bulk-level chemical composition modifications via voltage bias stimuli. In this study, we demonstrate fabricating a three-terminal lithium-ion electrochemical transistor based on lithium titanium oxide (Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 ), a popular lithium-ion battery anode material. We deposited and characterized LTO thin films using RF sputtering, demonstrating a 6 orders of magnitude increase in electronic conductivity upon lithiation, with conductivity plateauing after 20% lithiation. Density functional theory calculations revealed transformation from the insulating to conducting state, supported by experimental characterization through X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Direct Current (DC) polarization analyses. The fabricated transistor consisted of LTO as the channel layer, gold as source/drain terminals, lithium phosphorus oxynitride (LiPON) as the lithium-ion conductor, and copper as the gate terminal. The device exhibited clear hysteresis in transfer characteristics due to lithium insertion/extraction processes. Long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) measurements showed an asymmetric ratio of 1.425 and maximum/minimum conductance ratio of 7.83. When implemented in a deep neural network (DNN) for MNIST handwritten digit recognition, the device achieved 92.03% accuracy over 20 training epochs. Detailed transport mechanism analysis revealed the crucial role of oxygen vacancies and interface effects in device operation. Our preliminary findings establish LTO-based lithium-ion electrochemical transistors as promising candidates for energy-efficient neuromorphic computing applications, offering potential solutions to traditional Von Neumann architecture limitations.

Impact of Oxygen Non-Stoichiometry on Near-Ambient Temperature Ionic Mobility in Polaronic Mixed-Ionic-Electronic Conducting Thin Films

Enhanced ionic mobility in mixed ionic and electronic conducting solids contributes to improved performance of memristive memory, energy storage and conversion, and catalytic devices. Ionic mobility can be significantly depressed at reduced temperatures, for example, due to defect association and therefore needs to be monitored. Measurements of ionic transport in mixed conductors, however, proves to be difficult due to dominant electronic conductivity. This study examines the impact of different levels of quenched-in oxygen deficiency on the oxygen vacancy mobility near room temperature as measured by a novel dynamic current-voltage analysis. A Pr 0.1 Ce 0.9 O 2-δ film was grown by pulsed laser deposition and subsequently annealed, from 400-600° C, in various oxygen partial pressures to modify its oxygen vacancy concentration while minimizing microstructural growth and cation segregation. To monitor changes in film non-stoichiometry, we leverage the existence of an optical absorption center, related to the oxidation state of Pr ions in Pr0.1Ce0.9O2-δ. The oxygen vacancy migration enthalpy was found to exhibit a small increase from 0.73± 0.04 to 0.79 ± 0.02 eV with increasing oxygen deficiency, while the pre-factor was found to increase by a factor of 135. Here, a nearly 13-fold increase in ionic mobility at 60 °C for increases in oxygen non-stoichiometry from 0.032 ± 0.001 to 0.042± 0.001 was thereby detected. Raman spectroscopy was employed to rule out changes in strain as the primary cause for the significant change in mobility. Several factors potentially contributing to the large pre-factor changes are examined and discussed. Insights into how ionic defect concentration can markedly impact ionic mobility should help in elucidating the origins of variations seen in nanoionic devices.

Physical and Mechano-Electrochemical Phenomena of Thin Film Lithium-Ceramic Electrolyte Constructs

While a small number of solid electrolytes exhibit high ionic conductivity (~1mS cm at 298K), few are stable against Li metal. The garnet-type solid electrolyte, based on the nominal formula Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 (LLZO), is unique in that it is a fast ion conductor and – as we demonstrated in our recent project (DE-EE-00006821) – is stable against Li. Moreover, our former project successfully demonstrated a decrease in Li-LLZO interface resistance from 12,000 to 2 Ohms cm 2 and stable cycling at 1 mA cm 2 for 100 cycles (+/- 15 µm Li per cycle). Although the past project (DE-EE-00006821) demonstrated LLZO is a viable solid electrolyte for enabling batteries using metallic Li, the studies used thick pellets (1mm) and thick anodes (~500 µm). We believe that to achieve a step increase in technology readiness level (TRL), the same performance characteristics previously shown should be demonstrated in technologically relevant cells, e.g. thin LLZO and thin Li. The goal of this project is to acquire a deep fundamental understanding of the physical and mechano-electrochemical phenomena that control the performance of cells consisting of thin LLZO (~10 µm), thin Li anodes (~20 µm) and thin solid-state composite cathodes. If successful, the knowledge gained in this project will guide closely related commercialization efforts to scale the production of LLZO-based solid-state batteries.

Ion transport in composites of binary electrolyte and single ion conductor—A chronoamperometry study

Composite electrolytes for lithium batteries typically combine materials with very different mechanical properties and ionic transport mechanisms and the degree to which these two phases affect each other is not well understood. In this work we used numerical simulations and experiments to investigate the transport in composite electrolytes consisting of polyethylene oxide (PEO) with Lithium bis-triuoromethanesulfonimide (LiTFSI) and Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 (LATP) lithium ion conducting glass-ceramic particles. In particular we are interested in how the introduction of a single ion conductor (SIC) changes the salt concentration gradients in the polymer electrolyte (PE) under applied potential. To study this, we performed numerical simulations and chronoamperometry experiments in electrolytes with different arrangements of the SIC and PE phases, i.e. layers and particulate composites. The results show that the particulate composites have the highest concentration gradients and take the longest time to reach steady state current. Furthermore, the high concentration gradient can be exacerbated by a high SIC/PE interfacial resistance. Finally, the best arrangement appears to have a layer of SIC impenetrable to anions in the polymer phase within the electrolyte membrane.

Hydrogen in energy and information sciences

Beyond its fascinating chemistry as the first element in the Periodic Table, hydrogen is of high societal importance in energy technologies and of growing importance in energy-efficient computing. In energy, hydrogen has reemerged as a potential solution to long-term energy storage and as a carbon-free input for materials manufacturing. Its utilization and production rely on the availability of proton-conducting electrolytes and mixed proton–electron conductors for the components in fuel cells and electrolyzers. In computing, proton mediation of electronic properties has garnered attention for electrochemically controlled energy-efficient neuromorphic computing. Incorporation of substitutional and interstitial hydride ions in oxides, though only recently established, enables tuning of electronic and magnetic properties, inviting a range of possible exotic applications. This article addresses common themes in the fundamental science of hydrogen incorporation and transport in oxides as relevant to pressing technological needs. The content covers (1) lattice (or bulk) mechanisms of hydrogen transport, primarily addressing proton transport, but also touching on hydride ion transport; (2) interfacial transport; (3) exploitation of extreme external drivers to achieve unusual response; and (4) advances in methods to probe the hydrogen environment and transport pathway. The snapshot of research activities in the field of hydrogen-laden materials described here underscores exciting recent breakthroughs, remaining open questions, and breathtaking experimental tools now available for unveiling the nature of hydrogen in solid-state matter.
