The diffusion-induced dislocations are con- trolled by the misfit strain created by the diffusion of solute atoms or the phase transformation in the vicinity of the reaction front. The dislocation density is proportional to the total surface area of the ＂lithiated particle＂ and inversely pro- portional to the particle volume. The diffusion-induced dislocations relieve the diffusion-induced stresses.展开更多

The phase evolution, morphology and discharge behavior at 500 ℃ were investigated by thermal gravimeter/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and specific surface analysis(BET). The mixed vanadium oxides are obtained from the pyrolytic decomposition of ammonium metavanadate, with V6O13 as main phase. Results show that the lithiation reaction begins at about 258 ℃, with γ-LiV2O5 and VO2(B) as the product. VO2(B) can transit to VO2(R) in the range of 400-500 ℃, following by grain growth and crystalline development with the increase of temperature and roasting time. The ratio of γ-LiV2O5 to VO2 can be modified by the additive content of lithium bromide. A lattice shearing model about the nucleation and growth of LixV2O5 and VO2(B) inside mixed valence (+4, +5) vanadium oxides (e.g. V6O13, V3O7) is speculated, which is relative to oxygen-/vacancy-diffusion and structural evolution inspired by lithium-insertion. The open-circuit voltage of 2.6 V is observed in the single cell of Li-B/LiCl-KCl/(γ-LiV2O5/VO2) at 500 ℃, and the specific capacities of 146 and 167 mA·h/g (cut-off voltage 1.4 V) are measured for the positive material at 100 mA/cm2 and 200 mA/cm2, respectively.展开更多

The main obstacles are the sluggish conversion kinetics of the dense Se cathodes and the continuous deterioration of the Li-metal anodes.Here, by introducing an acetonitrile(AN)-based electrolyte and replacing the Li electrode with a lithiated graphite, we successfully build a hybrid conversion-intercalation system using a high-content(80 wt%),decent-loading(3.0 mg cm^(-2)), and low-porosity(44%) Se cathode. The as-designed lithiated graphite||Se(LG||Se) cell demonstrated a high Se utilization(97.4%), a long cycle life(3000 cycles), and an ultrahigh average Coulombic efficiency(99.98%). The cell also works well under lean-electrolyte(2 l L mg^(-1)) condition and shows outstanding safety performance in the nail-penetrating test. The combination affords the competitive comprehensive performances, including high volumetric and gravimetric energy densities, long cycling life, and superb safety of the LG||Se cell. In addition, with a newly-designed threeelectrode pouch cell, the lithiation of the graphite anodes could be done with an in-situ lithiation process,indicating the high potential of the as-proposed LG||Se cell for the practical applications.展开更多
