Li-ion diffusion studies in complex oxides for Li-ion battery applications

Abstract: A central objective of our research is to develop all solid state Li-ion batteries, which can safely and reliably operate at high voltages. To achieve this ambitious aim, it is essential that solid state electrolytes with excellent Li-ion mobilities are developed alongside high performance electrodes. We have developed new, fast microwave synthetic routes to garnets, promising electrolyte candidates, and double perovskites, which demonstrate good electrochemical stability over repeated cycles. Our proposed experiment will use muons to probe the Li diffusion properties across this range of all solid state battery materials. This beamtime will complement the diffraction, impedance, computational and potentiostatic measurements we have already obtained and complete our picture of the Li-diffusion processes occurring in these materials.
