Rapid scalable plasma processing of thin-film Li–La–Zr–O solid-state electrolytes

Solid-state electrolytes, such as lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZO), show promise as technologies for next-generation high-energy-density batteries, but commercial development has been hindered by a lack of scalable processing methods. Current fabrication methods are costly or require long annealing steps to create dense films. We report an atmospheric pressure blown-arc nitrogen plasma jet process to rapidly form sub-micrometer-thick, dense amorphous LLZO (a-LLZO) films from sol-gel precursors. Films are processed in less than 2 min, an order of magnitude faster than what has previously been reported. We demonstrate 500-nm-thick a-LLZO films processed at 350°C with an ionic conductivity of 2 × 10 −6 S/cm at 30°C and 2 × 10 −3 S/cm at 100°C and a conductance of 19 S at 100°C, the highest conductance of any LLZO phase to date. Here, the films exhibit outstanding smooth surface morphology with low defectivity, advancing atmospheric plasma processing as a scalable processing method for solid-state electrolytes.

Preparation and electrochemical properties of high-entropy oxide Li x (CrMnCoNiZn) 3-x O 4

High-entropy oxides (HEOs) have gained significant attention as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high theoretical specific capacity, synergistic effects of constituent elements, and enhanced structural stability induced by high entropy. Here, this study investigates the electrochemical properties of a novel series of HEOs, Li x (CrMnCoNiZn) 3-x O 4 , synthesized via the sol-gel method. As lithium content increases, the electrochemical lithium storage performance of the HEOs improves, attributed to the rise in high-valence states and oxygen vacancies. The high valence state of elements facilitates greater electron transfer, enhancing the specific capacity during lithium insertion. Additionally, a higher concentration of oxygen vacancies boosts ionic conductivity and lithium ion diffusion kinetics, leading to superior electrochemical performance. Among the synthesized materials, Li 0.11 (CrMnCoNiZn) 2.89 O 4 exhibited the best performance, delivering a discharge capacity of 365 mAh·g −1 after 100 cycles at 100 mA·g −1 , 257 mAh·g −1 after 1000 cycles at 1 A·g −1 , and a rate capacity of 196 mAh·g −1 at 2 A·g −1 . The Li + diffusion coefficient reached 2.78 × 10 −15 cm 2 ·s −1 . This work not only deepens the understanding of HEOs' electrochemical behavior in LIBs but also provides insights into the impact of lithium ion substitution on their performance.

Solvent Determines the Formation Pathway in Sol–Gel Synthesized Disordered Rock Salt Material for Lithium Ion Battery Application

The increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries with high capacity and cycling stability, in combination with the scarcity of cobalt and nickel, has led to significant efforts to develop new cathode materials based on earth-abundant transition metals. Mn- and Ti-based disordered rock salt (DRX) cathodes are promising candidates fulfilling these requirements. However, their large-scale fabrication can be energy- and time-intensive using traditional fabrication methods, e.g., solid-state synthesis. The present study showcases sol-gel synthesis as an alternative method with control over the crystallization pathway through solvent choice. Dimethylformamide (DMF) aids the homogenization of the transition metals during early crystallization stages and formation of Li2TiO3 and LiMn2O4 intermediates before the DRX phase is formed. In contrast, 2-methoxyethanol (2-ME) shows transition metal segregation and formation of an additional transition metal intermediate (Ti2MnO4) while not resulting in phase-pure DRX material after calcination. Coin cells prepared with DMF-material yield higher capacity and cycling stability compared with 2-ME material.

Development of Ternary Transition Metal Oxide Catalysts for Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Electrochemical water splitting, a promising method for green hydrogen production, is currently hindered by the high cost of precious-group metal (PGM)-based catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). This study addresses this challenge by advancing the development of catalysts for OER, focusing on the development of high-performance PGM-free catalysts using nickel-iron-cobalt (NiFeCo)-based aerogels. The catalysts were synthesized via a sol-gel method and critical point drying to achieve a highly porous structure with an exceptionally high surface area. The designed catalyst structure provides an ideal platform for maximizing catalytic active sites and enhancing mass transport kinetics. Co has been systematically incorporated into the current PGM-free state-of-the-art, NiFeOx catalyst, and the metal ratios have been optimized. In addition to the experimental studies, density functional theory calculations were performed to study the material’s properties of this ternary catalyst and the effect of Co addition on enhancing OER catalysis.

Mitigating Transition Metal Dissolution from Mn-rich Cathodes: Influence of Processing and Testing Methods

Manganese-rich oxides continue to gain interest with respect to the development of Earth-abundant options for lithium-ion cathodes. Of the unique challenges that hinder the respective performance of various classes of such materials, manganese dissolution still stands as a common theme. The work herein explores Li 3 PO 4 as a robust surface protection layer on a prototypical, Co-free, manganese-rich cathode in the way of a lithium- and manganese-rich oxide. The study highlights the critical importance of synthesis and processing in realizing optimal performance of a given surface treatment by comparing sol-gel and atomic layer deposition methods. Furthermore, cycling protocols are emphasized as a critical factor in adequately gauging the efficacy of surface protection strategies to mitigate manganese dissolution and the subsequent electrochemical consequence. Optimized Li 3 PO 4 coatings coatings on lithium- and manganese-rich cathode particles are shown to greatly mitigate capacity fade, impedance rise, pore/void formation and mechanical damage during long-term cycling.

Integrated Carbon Capture and Propane Oxidative Dehydrogenation for Olefins Production under Isothermal Conditions over Cr₂O₃-ZSM-5/CaO-CaZrO₃ Reactive Capture Materials

Converting captured CO₂ into fuels and marketable chemicals using bifunctional materials (BFMs) represents a promising sustainable solution. In this study, a BFM composed of a Cr₂O₃/ZSM-5 catalyst and a CaO-CaZrO₃ sorbent was developed and tested for the integrated CO₂-oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (CO₂-ODHP) in a fixed bed reactor. The CaO-CaZrO₃ sorbent, prepared using the citrate sol-gel method, demonstrated high CO₂ adsorption capacity and improved cyclic stability compared to pure CaO. The BFM achieved 23.5% propane conversion, 52.5% propylene selectivity, and 68.7% olefin selectivity at isothermal adsorption-reaction conditions (630-630 °C). Overall, this study provides insights into enhancing CO2 adsorption and developing materials for integrated CO2 capture and conversion.

The effect of Al2O3, CaO, Cr2O3 and MgO on devitrification of silica

The effect of doping on devitrification of vitreous silica was studied at 1100, 1200, and 1300 C. Dispersion of dopants on a molecular scale was accomplished via a sol-gel technique. All dopants accelerated the devitrification of silica but to different degrees. The most active was CaO followed by MgO, Al2O3, and Cr2O3. Pure silica and silica containing Cr2O3 and Al2O3 devitrified to alpha-cristobalite only, whereas silica doped with CaO and MgO produced alpha-quartz and alpha-cristobalite. It appears that prolonged heat treatment would cause alpha-quartz to transform to alpha-cristobalite.

Phase transformations in xerogels of mullite composition

Monophasic and diphasic xerogels have been prepared as precursors for mullite (3Al2O3-2SiO2). Monophasic xerogel was synthesized from tetraethyl orthosilicate and aluminum nitrate nanohydrate and the diphasic xerogel from colloidal suspension of silica and boehmite. The chemical and structural evolutions, as a function of thermal treatment, in these two types of sol-gel derived mullite precursor powders have been characterized by DTA, TGA, X-ray diffraction, SEM and infrared spectroscopy. Monophasic xerogel transforms to an Al-Si spinel from an amorphous structure at approximately 980 C. The spinel then changes into mullite on further heating. Diphasic xerogel forms mullite at approximately 1360 C. The components of the diphasic powder react independently up to the point of mullite formation. The transformation in the monophasic powder occurs rapidly and yields strongly crystalline mullite with no other phases present. The diphasic powder, however, transforms rather slowly and contains remnants of the starting materials (alpha-Al2O3, cristobalite) even after heating at high temperatures for long times (1600 C, 6 hr). The diphasic powder could be sintered to high density but not the monophasic powder in spite of its molecular level homogeneity.

Zirconia toughened SiC whisker reinforced alumina composites small business innovation research

The objective of this phase 1 project was to develop a ceramic composite with superior fracture toughness and high strength, based on combining two toughness inducing materials: zirconia for transformation toughening and SiC whiskers for reinforcement, in a controlled microstructure alumina matrix. The controlled matrix microstructure is obtained by controlling the nucleation frequency of the alumina gel with seeds (submicron alpha-alumina). The results demonstrate the technical feasibility of producing superior binary composites (Al2O3-ZrO2) and tertiary composites (Al2O3-ZrO2-SiC). Thirty-two composites were prepared, consolidated, and fracture toughness tested. Statistical analysis of the results showed that: (1) the SiC type is the key statistically significant factor for increased toughness; (2) sol-gel processing with a-alumina seed had a statistically significant effect on increasing toughness of the binary and tertiary composites compared to the corresponding mixed powder processing; and (3) ZrO2 content within the range investigated had a minor effect. Binary composites with an average critical fracture toughness of 6.6MPam sup 1/2, were obtained. Tertiary composites with critical fracture toughness in the range of 9.3 to 10.1 MPam sup 1/2 were obtained. Results indicate that these composites are superior to zirconia toughened alumina and SiC whisker reinforced alumina ceramic composites produced by conventional techniques with similar composition from published data.

Conceptual design study of a 5 kilowatt solar dynamic Brayton power system using a dome Fresnel lens solar concentrator

The primary project objective was to generate a conceptual design for a nominal 5 kW solar dynamic space power system, which uses a unique, patented, transmittance-optimized, dome-shaped, point-focus Fresnel lens as the optical concentrator. Compared to reflective concentrators, the dome lens allows 200 times larger slope errors for the same image displacement. Additionally, the dome lens allows the energy receiver, the power conversion unit (PCU), and the heat rejection radiator to be independently optimized in configuration and orientation, since none of these elements causes any aperture blockage. Based on optical and thermal trade studies, a 6.6 m diameter lens with a focal length of 7.2 m was selected. This lens should provide 87 percent net optical efficienty at 800X geometric concentration ratio. The large lens is comprised of 24 gores, which compactly stow together during launch, and automatically deploy on orbit. The total mass of the microglass lens panels, the graphite/epoxy support structure, and miscellaneous hardware is about 1.2 kg per square meter of aperture. The key problem for the dome lens approach relates to the selection of a space-durable lens material. For the first time, all-glass Fresnel lens samples were successfully made by a sol-gel casting process.

Phase compatibilities of YBa2Cu3O(9-delta) type structure in quintenary systems Y-Ba-Cu-O-X (impurity)

Electrical transport properties of the oxidic high T(sub c) superconductors are significantly affected by the presence of minor amounts of various elements adventing as impurities, e.g., from the chemical environment during manufacturing. YBa2Cu3O(9-delta) is prone to an extinction of the superconductivity on (partial) substitution of all four elemental components. E.g., Pr (for Y), La (for Ba), Zn (for Cu) or peroxygroup (for O) substituents will alter some of the superconductivity preconditions, like mixed valence state in Cu3O7/O(9-delta) network or structural distortion of the network. Although various pseudoternary chemical equilibrium phase diagrams of the Y(O)-Ba(O)-Cu(O) system now are available, no consensus is generally shown, however, this is partly due to lack of compatible definitions of the equilibrium conditions. Less information is available about the phase compatibilities in the appropriate quaternary phase diagram (including oxygen) and virtually no information exists about any pentenary phase diagrams (including one impurity). Unfortunately, complexity of such systems, stemming both from number of quaternary or pentenary compounds and from visualizing the five-component phase system, limits this presentation to more or less close surroundings of the YBa2Cu3O(9-delta) type phase in appropriate pseudoquaternary or pseudopseudoternary diagrams, involving Y-Ba-Cu and O, O-CO2, alkaline metals, Mg and alkaline earths, and Sc and most of the 3-d and 4-f elements. The systems were investigated by means of x ray diffraction, neutron diffraction and chemical analytical methods on samples prepared by sol-gel technique from citrates. The superconductivity was characterized by measuring the diamagnetic susceptibility by SQUID.

Synthesis of Y1Ba2Cu3O(sub x) superconducting powders by intermediate phase reaction

One of the more striking problems for the synthesis of the Y1Ba2Cu3Ox compound is the high-temperature decomposition of the BaCO3. This compound is present as raw material or as an intermediate compound in chemical processes such as amorphous citrate, coprecipitation oxalate, sol-gel process, acetate pyrolisis, etc. This fact makes difficult the total formation reaction of the Y1Ba2Cu3Ox phase and leads to the presence of undesirable phases such as the BaCuO2 phase, the 'green phase', Y2BaCuO5 and others. Here, a new procedure to overcome this difficulty is studied. The barium cation is previously combined with yttrium and/or copper to form intermediate compounds which can react between them to give Y1Ba2Cu3Ox. BaY2O4 and BaCu2O3 react according to the equation BaY2O4+3BaCu2O3 yields 2Y1Ba2Cu3Ox. BaY2O4 is a stable compound of the Y2O3-BaO system; BaCu2O3 is an intimate mixture of BaCuO2 and uncombined CuO. The reaction kinetics of these phases have been established between 860 and 920 C. The phase evolution has been determined. The crystal structure of the Y1Ba2Cu3Ox obtained powder was studied. According to the results obtained from the kinetics study the Y1Ba2Cu3Ox the synthesis was performed at temperatures of 910 to 920 C for short treatment times (1 to 2 hours). Pure Y1Ba2Cu3Ox was prepared, which develops orthorombic type I structure despite of the cooling cycle. Superconducting transition took place at 91 K. The sintering behavior and the superconducting properties of sintered samples were studied. Density, microstructure and electrical conductivity were measured. Sintering densities higher than 95 percent D(sub th) were attained at temperatures below 940 C. Relatively fine grained microstructure was observed, and little or no-liquid phase was detected.

Colloidal Behavior of Plutonium Oxide in Concentrated Electrolyte Solutions

The Hanford Site in Washington State manages legacy high-level radioactive waste streams that display major chemistry and engineering challenges, including the high salt levels and pH values that correspond to conditions under which many classical concepts describing chemical reactivity cannot be applied. One particular challenge that needs to be tackled at Hanford is that Pu concentrations, [Pu], in the soluble phases of the tank wastes are higher than expected based on the solubility of crystalline PuO2, which is widely accepted to be caused by the formation of PuO2 colloid, consisting of nano- to submicron-sized particles (PuO2 NPs). Fundamental research underpinning the behavior of PuO2 NPs under conditions not only relevant to the Hanford tank waste but at high ionic strength in general is needed to reliably predict the chemical reactivity of PuO2 NPs and develop engineering solutions to safely and efficiently process high-level radioactive waste into forms suitable for long-term storage. In this work, we study the behavior of PuO2 NPs (particle size ~100 nm) under high ionic strength conditions by reacting it with highly concentrated (up to 5 M) salt solutions. We explore different electrolyte compositions to elucidate the impact of different anions (NO3-, Cl-, ClO4-, SO42-, C2O42-, CO32-) on the stability of PuO2 NP in the acidic and alkaline pH regime. PuO2 NP aggregation and precipitation as function electrolyte concentration is tracked by a combination of liquid scintillation counting, dynamic light scattering for determination of particle size distributions, and zeta potentials as a proxy for particle charge. At acidic pH, electrolytes containing non-coordinating anions, such as NaNO3, NaCl, and NaClO4 mostly stabilize PuO2 NPs over a large electrolyte concentration range, showing only subtle differences in their reactivity. Other electrolyte anions show a more pronounced effect on the PuO2 NP stability: SO42-, binds directly to the particles’ surface, reverses the particle charge, and precipitates the PuO2 NPs efficiently even at intermediate sulfate concentrations (>0.1 M). In contrast, C2O42- is found to lead to high [Pu] in solution, in the milli-molar range, even at mildly acidic pH (~4). Thermodynamic modeling of the dissolved Pu concentrations using PHREEQC is unable to predict the observed [Pu] in the acidic pH regime, supporting the influence of colloids in maintaining elevated [Pu]. It is noteworthy that the current thermodynamic databases do not include constants for colloidal Pu phases and cannot accurately predict many of the high ionic strength solutions relevant to this work. The mechanisms and models responsible for these observations will need further investigation in the future. At high pH values (~12), PuO2 NPs exhibits classical sol-gel chemistry, meaning that upon destabilization of the colloidal sol, for example by addition of concentrated NaOH, highly porous and viscid PuO2 coagulates are formed that consist of a three-dimensional network likely held together by physical interactions. The PuO2 NP coagulate shows no significant reversibility of the aggregation when contacted with concentrated brines; however, PuO2 NPs can be efficiently resuspended in solution by addition of diluted electrolytes, alkaline solutions containing high amounts of carbonate, or simple addition of water. Especially carbonate is shown to stabilize PuO2 NPs in solution at high pH, characterized by stable colloidal suspensions that are resistant against sedimentation during centrifugation. Thermodynamic modeling of the carbonate system was able to predict an increasing dissolved Pu concentration with increasing carbonate concentration. However, the model was profoundly sensitive to the fixed redox potential and does not include any thermodynamic constants for colloidal Pu species.

Visualizing Crystallization Dynamics and Transformation Pathways of Disordered Rocksalt Oxides During Thermally Activated Sol–Gel Synthesis

Sol–gel synthesis is a wet-chemical processing route for fabricating functional materials with control over composition and microstructure at relatively low temperatures compared to conventional solid-state synthesis. While sol–gel process initiates with intermixed molecular precursors, the early-stage nucleation pathways are insufficiently understood. Here, in this study, the chemical and structural transformation of ion disordered rocksalt (DRX) Li 1.2 Mn 0.4 Ti 0.4 O 2 (LMTO), a promising cathode material for lithium batteries, is studied by multiscale characterizations. In situ heating transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using a liquid cell visualizes and identifies crystallization pathways at the nanoscale. While some regions follow a classical multi-step transition through thermodynamically stable intermediates, others exhibit a kinetic shortcut via a localized amorphous matrix to directly form the DRX structure. Macroscale Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy corroborates the findings and reveals that transition metal ions are more strongly incorporated into the acetate-coordinated network than lithium. Although in situ heating TEM captures diverse local transformation pathways, in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction indicates that the macroscopic transformation proceeds predominantly through spinel LMTO and lithium titanates toward DRX-LMTO. The findings uncover the spatiotemporal chemical and structural transformations in sol–gel derived DRX-LMTO materials, and call for fine-tuning of such sol–gel chemistries to manipulate the crystallization pathways and achieve target material homogeneity more efficiently.

Enhanced Electrocatalytic and Cathode‐Electrolyte Interfacial Properties With a Pr‐Based Simple Perovskite/Ruddlesden‐Popper Nanocomposite Cathode in Protonic Ceramic Fuel Cells

The sluggish kinetics and poor stability of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) remain the primary bottleneck for achieving high performance in protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) at intermediate temperatures (400–650°C). In this work, a Pr-based nanocomposite cathode comprised of simple perovskite phase (PrNi 0.7 Co 0.3 O 3-δ ) and Ruddlesden-Popper phase (Co-doped Pr 4 Ni 3 O 10+δ ) is developed. Although PrNi 0.7 Co 0.3 O 3-δ solely stands as a good cathode with facile proton transfer, combining the superior catalytic activity against oxygen on the Ruddlesden-Popper phase boosts the ORR performance further. The designed nanocomposite cathode outperforms the simple perovskite cathode, attributed to enhanced oxygen absorption and surface diffusion with the Ruddlesden-Popper phase. A precursor-based cathode deposition technique is also developed to achieve cathode grain sizes of ∼100 nm. A single cell with the nanocomposite cathode delivers a peak power density of 1.38 W cm −2 at 650°C, among the highest in reported PCFCs with Pr-based cathodes, with a small degradation rate of 0.145 mV h −1 during 250 h stability test. Further investigation of cathode-electrolyte interface revealed interfacial PrO 2 phase formation, promoted by abundant Pr 6 O 11 in the nanocomposite precursor powder, thereby improving both ohmic resistance and stability. These findings highlight the effectiveness of the nanocomposite cathode and underscore its advantages on interfacial properties.

Amorphous zinc–molybdenum–sulfide chalcogel as a long-cycle, high-capacity electrode for lithium-ion batteries

The inherent limitations of intercalation-based electrodes in lithium-ion batteries have prompted the search for alternative materials with higher specific capacities and robust electrochemical stability. Sulfur-based electrodes, despite their high theoretical capacities (1672 mAh g −1 ), typically suffer from poor cycling performance. In this work, zinc molybdenum polysulfide (Zn x Mo 3 S 13 , 0.5 ≤ x), an amorphous semiconductor chalcogel, exhibits high specific capacity and excellent cycling stability. Synchrotron X-ray pair distribution function and extended X-ray absorption fine structure analyses reveal a short-range atomic structure comprising Mo–Mo, M–S (M = Mo, Zn), and S–S bonding motifs. The coordination environment of Mo and S closely resembles that of Mo 3 S 13 clusters, interconnected via S–S bridges and Zn 2+ cations. The Li/Zn x Mo 3 S 13 cell delivers an initial discharge capacity of 844 mAh g −1 at C/3, and retains 386.2 mAh g −1 after 1000 cycles with an average coulombic efficiency of 99.99%. The distribution of relaxation times analysis confirms the formation of a stable solid electrolyte interphase, which underpins the cell's long-term stability. In conclusion, this outstanding performance is attributed to the synergistic effects of the chalcogel's unique amorphous framework, semiconductive character, Zn-mediated polysulfide anchoring, and structural resilience, positioning Zn x Mo 3 S 13 chalcogel among the most durable pure metal sulfide cathodes reported for next-generation LIBs.
