The effect of Mn2+-doping on the structure and electrochemical performances of Li3V2(PO4)3/C was characterized by XRD, SEM, XPS, galvanostatic charge /discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS). The XRD study shows that a small amount of Mn2+-doped does not alter the structure of Li3V2(PO4)3/C materials, and all Mn2+-doped samples are of pure single phase with a monoclinic structure (space group P21/n). The XPS analysis indicates that valences state of V and Mn are +3 and +2 in Li3V1.94Mn0.09(PO4)3/C, respectively, and the citric acid in raw materials was decomposed into carbon during calcination, and residual carbon exists in Li3V1.94Mn0.09(PO4)/C. The results of electrochemical measurements show that Mn2+-doping can improve the cyclic stability and rate performance of these cathode materials. The Li3V1.94Mn0.09(PO4)3/C cathode material shows the best cyclic stability and rate performance. For example, at the discharge current density of 40 mA/g, after 100 cycles, the discharge capacity of Li3V1.94Mn0.09(PO4)3/C declines from initial 158.8 mA·h/g to 120.5 mA·h/g with a capacity retention of 75.9%; however, that of the Mn-undoed sample declines from 164.2 mA·h/g to 72.6 mA·h/g with a capacity retention of 44.2%. When the discharge current is increased up to 1C, the intial discharge capacity of Li3V1.94Mn0.09(PO4)3/C still reaches 146.4 mA·h/g, and the discharge capacity maintains at 107.5 mA·h/g after 100 cycles. The EIS measurement indicates that Mn2+-doping with a appropriate amount of Mn2+ decreases the charge transfer resistance, which is favorable for the insertion/extraction of Li+.展开更多

In thisstudy, Nd-doped Gd5Si4 microparticles and nanomaterials were synthesized using the reduction–diffusion method. Theimpact of Nd doping with varying compositions on the structure and entropy change properties of the materials was investigated.The Curie temperatures of both the micron- and nano-sized materials ranged from 190 K to 210 K, which were lowerthan previously reported values. Micron-sized samples doped with 1% Nd exhibited superior magnetocaloric properties,demonstrating a maximum entropy change of 4.98 J·kg^(-1)·K^(-1) at 5 T, with an entropy change exceeding 4 J·kg^(-1)·K^(-1)over a wide temperature range of approximately 70 K. Conversely, the nanomaterials had broader entropy change peaks butlower values. All samples exhibited a second-order phase transition, as confirmed by the Arrott plots.展开更多
