The properties of the Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopic (SEM), and electrochemical measurements Results show that the Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 has the same monoclinic structure as the undoped Li3V2(PO4)3, and the particle size of Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 is smaller than that of the undoped Li3V2(PO4)3 and the smallest particle size is only about 1 1μm. The Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 samples were investigated on the Li extraction/insertion performances through charge/discharge, cyclic voltammogram (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectra(EIS). The optimal doping content of Cr was that x=0.04 in the Li3V2-xCrx(PO4)3 samples to achieve high discharge capacity and good cyclic stability. The electrode reaction reversibility was enhanced, and the charge transfer resistance was decreased through the Cr-doping. The improved electrochemical performances of the Cr-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 cathode materials are attributed to the addition of Cr^3+ ion by stabilizing the monoclinic structure.展开更多

The optical absorption and emission spectra of the above Cr^3+-incorporated solid-state materials were recorded. The technical parameters for growing high-quality Cr^3+:BeAl2O4 and Cr^3+:LINbO3 crystals were obtained. The results indicate that the optical absorption and fluorescence spectra of Cr^3+ show quite a few differences in various matrixes. The sharp line emissions were observed in the Cr^3+:BeAl2O4 and Cr^3+:LiNbO3 crystals. The crystal-field parameters (Dq) for Cr^3+. in different matrixes were calculated from their corresponding spectra. It is indicated that Cr^3+:BeAl2O4 and Cr^3+:LiNbO3 belong to the high-field site crystal, while the Cr^3+ ZnO-Al2O3-SiO2 glass and glass-ceramic belong to the weak-field site crystal.展开更多
