Sputter deposition of LiPON films directly onto high Li+ conductivity solid electrolyte plates has been investigated as a means to minimize the reactivity of the plates to metallic Li. The LiPON films were shown to effectively passivate the plates in contact with metallic Li, in contrast to unpassivated plates that reacted immediately in contact with Li metal.
Quarternary lithium-ion battery electrolyte solutions containing ester co-solvents in mixtures of carbonates have been demonstrated to have high conductivity at low temperatures (<-20 degrees Celcius).
A critical component of alkali metal thermal-to electric converter (AMTEC) devices for long duration space missions is the sodium beta-alumina solid electrolyte ceramic (BASE), for which there exists no substitute.
Sodium beta-alumina is one of the best characterized solid electrolytes, but its high temperature chemistry in the range 700K to 1800K is only partly understood.
The success of rechargeable lithium ion batteries may be largely attributed to the surface films on the carbon anodes, which provide the anodes with adequate protection against continued reaction with electrolyte while permitting charge transfer.
NASA is actively pursuing the development of advanced electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices for future lunar and Mars missions. The Exploration Technology Development Program, Energy Storage Project is sponsoring the development of advanced Li-ion batteries and PEM fuel cell and regenerative fuel cell systems for the Altair Lunar Lander, Extravehicular Activities (EVA), and rovers and as the primary energy storage system for Lunar Surface Systems. At JPL, in collaboration with NASA-GRC, NASA-JSC and industry, we are actively developing advanced Li-ion batteries with improved specific energy, energy density and safety. One effort is focused upon developing Li-ion battery electrolyte with enhanced safety characteristics (i.e., low flammability). A number of commercial applications also require Li-ion batteries with enhanced safety, especially for automotive applications.

Lithium ion rechargable batteries are being developed for various aerospace applications under a NASA-DoD interagency program. In this paper, we report the beneficial effect of using alkyl pyrocarbonates as electrolyte additives to improve the low temperature performance of lithium ion cells.
