FeNb11O29 intercalation materials for lithium-ion batteries: measuring the diffusion coefficient of lithium with muon spin relaxation

Abstract: Muon spectroscopy is a great method for obtaining the properties of diffusion when ionic conductivity emerges, and furthermore gives with the advantage of measuring the native materials unperturbed by external measurement conditions.We propose a Muon spin relaxation experiment to study the diffusion coefficient of lithium in the intercalation compounds of FeNb11O29, which is emerging as potential anode materials for its capacitive properties and reversibility. Such result is achievable through the measurement of the muon spin fluctuation rate due to the motion of lithium.Our study aims to the understanding the microscopic picture of ionic conductivity, which is at the same time the keystone of the improvement of the existing material and the possibility of designing more advanced ones.
