Lithium-ion conducting electrolyte salts for lithium batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 24-11-2011
Abstract: This paper presents an overview of the various types of lithium salts used to conduct Li(+) ions in electrolyte solutions for lithium rechargeable batteries. More emphasis is paid towards lithium salts and their ionic conductivity in conventional solutions, solid-electrolyte interface (SEI) formation towards carbonaceous anodes and the effect of anions on the aluminium current collector. The physicochemical and functional parameters relevant to electrochemical properties, that is, electrochemical stabilities, are also presented. The new types of lithium salts, such as the bis(oxalato)borate (LiBOB), oxalyldifluoroborate (LiODFB) and fluoroalkylphosphate (LiFAP), are described in detail with their appropriate synthesis procedures, possible decomposition mechanism for SEI formation and prospect of using them in future generation lithium-ion batteries. Finally, the state-of-the-art of the system is given and some interesting strategies for the future developments are illustrated.
Self-Assembled 3D Foam-Like NiCo2O4 as Efficient Catalyst for Lithium Oxygen Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 15-12-2016
Abstract: A self-assembled 3D foam-like NiCo2O4 catalyst has been synthesized via a simple and environmental friendly approach, wherein starch acts as the template to form the unique 3D architecture. Interestingly, when employed as a cathode for lithium oxygen batteries, it demonstrates superior bifunctional electrocatalytic activities toward both the oxygen reduction reaction and the oxygen evolution reaction, with a relatively high round-trip efficiency of 70% and high discharge capacity of 10 137 mAh g(-1) at a current density of 200 mA g(-1), which is much higher than those in previously reported results. Meanwhile, rotating disk electrode measurements in both aqueous and nonaqueous electrolyte are also employed to confirm the electrocatalytic activity for the first time. This excellent performance is attributed to the synergistic benefits of the unique 3D foam-like structure and the intrinsically high catalytic activity of NiCo2O4 .

Superconductivity and flux pinning in Y and heavily Pb codoped Bi-2212 single crystals
Publisher: AIP Publishing
Date: 06-2001
DOI: 10.1063/1.1356055
Abstract: Studies of superconductivity and flux pinning were carried out on (Bi1.64Pb0.36)Sr2Ca1−xYxCu2O8+y (x=0, 0.05, 0.11, 0.33) single crystals grown by the self-flux method. X-ray diffraction, transport, and magnetic measurements were performed for purposes of characterization. X-ray analysis revealed that the c lattice parameter systemically decreases as the Y doping level increases. The superconducting transition temperature Tc decreases from 80 to 30 K as x increases. A strong annealing effect on Tc and superconducting volume has been observed. Resistance measurements show that x=0.33 s les are semiconductive over a wide temperature range between 4.2 and 300 K for the as-grown state, but become metallic with Tc of 65–70 K after air or oxygen annealing. Flux pinning was studied by measuring the hysteresis loop at different temperatures and different fields. A peak effect was observed in all the codoped s les. Results show that at low temperatures, the peak field is smaller than in solely Pb doped crystals and decreases as x increases (x& .1). However, the peak field at high temperature for the x=0.05 s le is higher than in heavily Pb doped Bi2212 crystals, indicative of a strong pinning due to the codoping.

Hydrogen storage properties of Mg-Ni alloy catalysed by multi-walled carbon nanotubes
Publisher: Trans Tech Publications, Ltd.

DOI: 10.4028/WWW.SCIENTIFIC.NET/MSF.654-656.2843
Abstract: The hydrogen storage performance of ball-milled s le of cast Mg-6 wt% Ni alloy was investigated. Morphology and microstructure of the cast s le and achieved powders were evaluated by high-resolution scanning electron microscopy. The activation characteristics of ball-milled alloy are compared with those of the materials obtained by ball-milling of 5 wt% multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) for 2 hours. MWCNTs enhanced the absorption kinetics considerably. The hydrogen content of modified powder by MWCNTs reached to the maximum hydrogen capacity within two minutes of exposure to hydrogen at 370°C and 2MPa pressure. The evidence is provided that nucleation and growth of hydrides accelerate drastically by homogenously distribution of MWCNTs on the surface of ball-milled powders.

Processing Rusty Metals into Versatile Prussian Blue for Sustainable Energy Storage
Publisher: Research Square Platform LLC

DOI: 10.21203/RS.3.RS-361418/V1
Abstract: To reach a closed-loop material system and meet the urgent requirement of sustainable energy storage technologies, it is essential to incorporate efficient waste management into designing new energy storage materials. Here, we reported a “two birds with one stone” strategy to transform rusty iron products into Prussian blue as high-performance cathode materials and recover the rusty iron products to their original status. Owing to the high crystalline and Na + content, the rusty iron derived Prussian blue shows a high specific capacity of 145 mAh g − 1 and excellent cycling stability over 3500 cycles. Through the in situ X-ray diffraction and in situ Raman spectra, it is found that the impressive ion storage capability and stability are greatly related to the suppressed structure distortion during the charge/discharge process. The ions migration mechanism and possibility as universal host of other kinds of ions are further illuminated by density functional theory calculations. This work provides a new strategy for recycling wasted materials into high value-added materials for sustainable battery systems, and is adaptable in the nanomedicine, catalysis, sensors, and gas storage applications.

Conducting poly(aniline) nanotubes and nanofibers: Controlled synthesis and application in lithium/poly(aniline) rechargeable batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 27-03-2006
Abstract: The primary aim of this work was to synthesize aligned perchloric-acid-doped poly(aniline) (HClO(4)-doped PANI) nanotubes by a simple alumina template method and to investigate their application in lithium oly(aniline) rechargeable batteries. Powder X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis were used to characterize the nanostructures obtained. The second aim addressed the preparation of HClO(4)-doped PANI microspheres and nanofibers on a large scale through a modified spraying technique, since the template synthesis has limitations in mass production. The present synthesis methods are simple and can be extended to the preparation of a broad range of one-dimensional conductive polymers. Furthermore, electrochemical measurements showed that the as-prepared HClO(4)-doped PANI nanotubes exhibit better electrode performances than their commercial counterparts because they possess more active sites, higher conductivity, and relative flexibility. This indicates that HClO(4)-doped poly(aniline) nanomaterials are promising in the application of lithium olymer rechargeable batteries.
LSD1 activation promotes inducible EMT programs and modulates the tumour microenvironment in breast cancer.

DOI: 10.1038/S41598-017-17913-X
Abstract: Complex regulatory networks control epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) but the underlying epigenetic control is poorly understood. Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is a key histone demethylase that alters the epigenetic landscape. Here we explored the role of LSD1 in global epigenetic regulation of EMT, cancer stem cells (CSCs), the tumour microenvironment, and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer. LSD1 induced pan-genomic gene expression in networks implicated in EMT and selectively elicits gene expression programs in CSCs whilst repressing non-CSC programs. LSD1 phosphorylation at serine-111 (LSD1-s111p) by chromatin anchored protein kinase C-theta (PKC-θ), is critical for its demethylase and EMT promoting activity and LSD1-s111p is enriched in chemoresistant cells in vivo . LSD1 couples to PKC-θ on the mesenchymal gene epigenetic template promotes LSD1-mediated gene induction. In vivo , chemotherapy reduced tumour volume, and when combined with an LSD1 inhibitor, abrogated the mesenchymal signature and promoted an innate, M1 macrophage-like tumouricidal immune response. Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) from metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients were enriched with LSD1 and pharmacological blockade of LSD1 suppressed the mesenchymal and stem-like signature in these patient-derived CTCs. Overall, LSD1 inhibition may serve as a promising epigenetic adjuvant therapy to subvert its pleiotropic roles in breast cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Abstract: Nanoparticles of lithium manganese oxide (LiMn2O4) with a spinel structure have been synthesized by a one-step intermediate temperature solid-state reaction. The influence of the molar ratio of citric acid to the metal ions on the physicochemical properties of LiMn2O4 powders in air has been analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction and electron microscope techniques. The electrochemical behavior of the material has been examined by charge/discharge tests and cyclic voltammetry. Test results reveal that LiMn2O4 particles with lower molar ratios of citric acid to metal ions (1:2) are highly crystalline and highly electrochemically reversible, with better cycle capabilities when compared with a s le with a higher molar ratio (2:1). The LiMn2O4 powders obtained by this method have a uniform morphology with a narrow size distribution.

Abstract: La 1−x Li x MnO 3 (x=0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3) were synthesized by using conventional solid state reaction and partial melting technique. The compounds were determined to be of rhombohedral structure by x-ray powder diffraction. For the x=0.2 and x=0.3 s les, room temperature neutron powder diffraction patterns were collected and analyzed with the Rietveld method. The analysis showed that the Li substitutes onto the La site in the rhombohedral perovskite lattice. Resistivities were measured between 4.2 K and room temperature in the magnetic fields of 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 13 T. A wide semiconductor-metal transition at temperatures between 160 and 210 K or between 200–230 K were observed for both s les with x=0.2 and 0.3, respectively. Large magnetoresistances above 20%–80% were achieved at fields from null to 13 T over a wide temperature range from the ferromagnetic transitions down to 4.2 K. However, the x=0 and 0.1 s les show a semiconducting behavior in resistivity measured between 77 and 300 K.

Enhancement of the critical current density and flux pinning of MgB 2 superconductor by nanoparticle SiC doping
Publisher: AIP Publishing
Date: 22-10-2002
DOI: 10.1063/1.1517398
Abstract: Doping of MgB2 by nano-SiC and its potential for the improvement of flux pinning were studied for MgB2−x(SiC)x/2 with x=0, 0.2, and 0.3 and for 10 wt % nano-SiC-doped MgB2 s les. Cosubstitution of B by Si and C counterbalanced the effects of single-element doping, decreasing Tc by only 1.5 K, introducing intragrain pinning centers effective at high fields and temperatures, and significantly enhancing Jc and Hirr. Compared to the undoped s le, Jc for the 10 wt % doped s le increased by a factor of 32 at 5 K and 8 T, 42 at 20 K and 5 T, and 14 at 30 K and 2 T. At 20 K and 2 T, the Jc for the doped s le was 2.4×105 A/cm2, which is comparable to Jc values for the best Ag/Bi-2223 tapes. At 20 K and 4 T, Jc was twice as high as for the best MgB2 thin films and an order of magnitude higher than for the best Fe/MgB2 tapes. The magnetic Jc is consistent with the transport Jc which remains at 20 000 A/cm2 even at 10 T and 5 K for the doped s le, an order of magnitude higher than the undoped one. Because of such high performance, it is anticipated that the future MgB2 conductors will be made using a formula of MgBxSiyCz instead of pure MgB2.

One-Step Synthesis of Graphene/Polypyrrole Nanofiber Composites as Cathode Material for a Biocompatible Zinc/Polymer Battery
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 18-09-2014
DOI: 10.1021/AM503572W
Abstract: The significance of developing implantable, biocompatible, miniature power sources operated in a low current range has become manifest in recent years to meet the demands of the fast-growing market for biomedical microdevices. In this work, we focus on developing high-performance cathode material for biocompatible zinc olymer batteries utilizing biofluids as electrolyte. Conductive polymers and graphene are generally considered to be biocompatible and suitable for bioengineering applications. To harness the high electrical conductivity of graphene and the redox capability of polypyrrole (PPy), a polypyrrole fiber/graphene composite has been synthesized via a simple one-step route. This composite is highly conductive (141 S cm(-1)) and has a large specific surface area (561 m(2) g(-1)). It performs more effectively as the cathode material than pure polypyrrole fibers. The battery constructed with PPy fiber/reduced graphene oxide cathode and Zn anode delivered an energy density of 264 mWh g(-1) in 0.1 M phosphate-buffer saline.

Abstract: Nano-crystalline Co3O4 and CoO powders have been prepared by a spray pyrolysis approach. The effects of the reaction temperature and initial salts on the crystallinity and phase composition have been studied. Based on the TEM and XRD results, the crystal sizes were in the range of 1-10 nm. SEM and TEM observations also reveal that the nano-powders easily create micron-scale spherical agglomerates. The Co3O4 powders obtained by spraying nitrate solution at 500 degrees C show high specific surface area, which according to the BET method is 82.37 m2/g. The time/temperature phase diagram of cobalt oxides developed from XRD and DTA/TGA analyses shows the existence of a CoO phase at low and high temperature ranges when some specific preparation conditions are applied.

Plum-branch-like carbon nanofibers decorated with SnO2 nanocrystals

DOI: 10.1039/C0NR00009D
Abstract: Novel plum-branch-like carbon nanofibers (CNFs) decorated with SnO2 nanocrystals have been synthesized by electrospinning and subsequent thermal treatment in an Ar/H2O atmosphere. The morphologies of the as-synthesized SnO2/CNF composites and the contents of carbon and SnO2 can be controlled by adjusting the heat treatment temperature. It is proposed that the growth of SnO2/CNF composites follows the outward diffusion of tin composites from the as-spun tin composite olyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers, pyrolysis of PAN and oxidation of tin composites, and then formation of SnO2 nanocrystals around the CNFs. This novel 1D SnO2/CNF composite may have potential application in nanobatteries, nano fuel cells, and nanosensors. A preliminary result has revealed that the SnO2/CNF composite presents favourable electrochemical performance in lithium-ion batteries.

Graphite-Nanoplate-Coated Bi2S3Composite with High-Volume Energy Density and Excellent Cycle Life for Room-Temperature Sodium-Sulfide Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 10-12-2016
Abstract: Graphite-nanoplate-coated Bi2 S3 composite (Bi2 S3 @C) has been prepared by a simple, scalable, and energy-efficient precipitation method combined with ball milling. The Bi2 S3 @C composite was used as the cathode material for sodium-sulfide batteries. It delivered an initial capacity of 550 mAh g(-1) and high stable specific energy in the range of 275-300 Wh kg(-1) at 0.1 C, with an enhanced capacity retention of 69 % over 100 cycles. The unique structure demonstrates superior cycling stability, with a capacity drop of 0.3 % per cycle over 100 cycles, compared with that of bare Bi2 S3 . The sodium storage mechanism of Bi2 S3 was investigated based on ex situ X-ray diffraction and scanning transmission electron microscopy.

Abstract: In a systematic study of the (Pr1−xTix)Fe5 alloy series, the (Pr0.65Ti0.35)Fe5 alloy has been found to have a dominant phase with either the rhombohedral Th2Zn17 structure or the newly discovered Nd2(Fe,Ti)19 (S. J. Collocott, R. K. Day, J. B. Dunlop, and R. L. Davis, in Proceedings of the Seventh International Symposium on Magnetic Anisotropy and Coercivity in R-T Alloys, Canberra, July 1992, p. 437) structure, depending on the annealing procedure. Powder-x-ray-diffraction patterns and scanning electron microscopy show that the s le annealed at a temperature of 850 °C followed by 1000 °C has the 2:17 structure whereas annealing at 1000 °C directly leads to the new 2:19 structure. Energy-dispersive x-ray analysis yields Pr:Fe:Ti ratios of 10.7:86.2:3.1 for the Pr2(Fe,Ti)17 phase and 9.2:85.9:4.9 for the Pr2(Fe,Ti)19 phase. 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy (at 295 K) gives values for the average 57Fe hyperfine field of 15.7 T for the 2:17 phase and 17.5 T for the 2:19 phase, respectively.

Self-assembly of hierarchical star-like Co3O4 micro/nanostructures and their application in lithium ion batteries
Publisher: Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC)
Date: 2013
DOI: 10.1039/C2NR33223J
Abstract: A novel hierarchical star-like Co(3)O(4) was successfully synthesized from self-assembled hierarchical Co(OH)F precursors via a facile hydrothermal method and subsequent annealing in air. The morphological evolution process of the Co(OH)F precursors was investigated by examining the different reaction times during synthesis. First, hexagonal plates are formed, and then nanodiscs grow on the surface of the plates. Subsequently, dissolution and regrowth of Co(OH)F occur to form the star-like hierarchical structures. Co(3)O(4) obtained from thermal decomposition of the Co(OH)F precursor in air at 350 °C exhibited high reversible capacity as an anode material in lithium ion batteries. The specific charge capacity of 1036 mA h g(-1) was obtained in the first cycle at a current density of 50 mA g(-1), and after 100 cycles, the capacity retention was nearly 100%. When the current density was increased to 500 mA g(-1) and 2 A g(-1), the capacities were 995 and 641 mA h g(-1), respectively, after 100 cycles. In addition, a capacity of 460 mA h g(-1) was recorded at a current density of 10 A g(-1) in the rate capability test. The excellent electrochemical performance of the Co(3)O(4) electrodes can be attributed to the porous interconnected hierarchical nanostructures, which protect the small particles from agglomeration and buffer the volume change during the discharge-charge process.

Small angle grain boundary in YBa2Cu3Oy superconductor

Date: 10-07-1999
DOI: 10.1142/S0217979299002393
Abstract: Electron diffraction spots splitting into three is an unusual phenomenon. Based on the analysis of crystal structure, the splitting is believed due to some neighboring crystal cells grow along a small angle θ, rather than along a parallel direction as in general case. When a crystal grows along two neighboring boundaries with a small angle, the distance of the two boundaries increases as well. When the distance of the two boundaries reaches as large as a cell constant, a new cell will grow in the site, which is called an edge dislocation. According to the geometric relation of the reciprocal space, small angle grain boundaries can be calculated from the corresponding splitting spots. In this work, two small angles θ are determined to be -2.5° and 3.0°, respectively. Obviously, the grain with small angle grain boundaries has a curved surface and the curvature of the surface is determined by the density of the edge dislocation. The corresponding parameters of the edge dislocation are calculated. Both the edge dislocation and the neighboring cells growing along a small angle are a growing mechanism of YBa 2 Cu 3 O y and this mechanism is responsible for the curved grain surface.

A Facile Synthesis of High-Surface-Area Sulfur-Carbon Composites for Li/S Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 26-05-2015
Abstract: Small-grained elemental sulfur is precipitated from sodium thiosulfate (Na2 S2 O3 ) in a carbon-containing oxalic acid (HOOC-COOH) solution through a novel spray precipitation method. Surface area analysis, elemental mapping, and transmission electron micrographs revealed that the spray-precipitated sulfur particles feature 11 times higher surface area compared to conventional precipitated sulfur, with homogeneous distribution in the carbon. Moreover, the scanning electron micrographs show that these high-surface-area sulfur particles are firmly adhered to and covered by carbon. This precipitated S-C composite exhibits high discharge capacity with about 75 % capacity retention. The initial discharge capacity was further improved to 1444 mA h g(-1) by inserting a free-standing single-walled carbon nanotube layer in between the cathode and the separator. Moreover, with the help of the fixed capacity charging technique, 91.6 % capacity retention was achieved.

Boosting potassium-ion batteries by few-layered composite anodes prepared via solution-triggered one-step shear exfoliation
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC

DOI: 10.1038/S41467-018-05786-1
Abstract: Earth-abundant potassium is a promising alternative to lithium in rechargeable batteries, but a pivotal limitation of potassium-ion batteries is their relatively low capacity and poor cycling stability. Here, a high-performance potassium-ion battery is achieved by employing few-layered antimony sulfide/carbon sheet composite anode fabricated via one-step high-shear exfoliation in ethanol/water solvent. Antimony sulfide with few-layered structure minimizes the volume expansion during potassiation and shortens the ion transport pathways, thus enhancing the rate capability while carbon sheets in the composite provide electrical conductivity and maintain the electrode cycling stability by trapping the inevitable by-product, elemental sulfur. Meanwhile, the effect of the exfoliation solvent on the fabrication of two-dimensional antimony sulfide/carbon is also investigated. It is found that water facilitates the exfoliation by lower diffusion barrier along the [010] direction of antimony sulfide, while ethanol in the solvent acts as the carbon source for in situ carbonization.

Abstract: Cathode material degradation during cycling is one of the key obstacles to upgrading lithium-ion and beyond-lithium-ion batteries for high-energy and varied-temperature applications. Herein, we highlight recent progress in material surface-coating as the foremost solution to resist the surface phase-transitions and cracking in cathode particles in mono-valent (Li, Na, K) and multi-valent (Mg, Ca, Al) ion batteries under high-voltage and varied-temperature conditions. Importantly, we shed light on the future of materials surface-coating technology with possible research directions. In this regard, we provide our viewpoint on a novel hybrid surface-coating strategy, which has been successfully evaluated in LiCoO

DOI: 10.1038/S41467-019-11600-3
Abstract: Polysulfide dissolution and slow electrochemical kinetics of conversion reactions lead to low utilization of sulfur cathodes that inhibits further development of room-temperature sodium-sulfur batteries. Here we report a multifunctional sulfur host, NiS 2 nanocrystals implanted in nitrogen-doped porous carbon nanotubes, which is rationally designed to achieve high polysulfide immobilization and conversion. Attributable to the synergetic effect of physical confinement and chemical bonding, the high electronic conductivity of the matrix, closed porous structure, and polarized additives of the multifunctional sulfur host effectively immobilize polysulfides. Significantly, the electrocatalytic behaviors of the Lewis base matrix and the NiS 2 component are clearly evidenced by operando synchrotron X-ray diffraction and density functional theory with strong adsorption of polysulfides and high conversion of soluble polysulfides into insoluble Na 2 S 2 /Na 2 S. Thus, the as-obtained sulfur cathodes exhibit excellent performance in room-temperature Na/S batteries.

Anisotropy of the critical current in silver sheathed (Bi,Pb) 2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 tapes
Publisher: AIP Publishing
Date: 15-07-1995
DOI: 10.1063/1.360346
Abstract: The transport critical current of Bi:2223 tapes was measured in magnetic fields up to 15 T and at temperatures from 4.2 to 84 K. At high temperatures, the critical current density Jc is strongly anisotropic and the anisotropy increases rapidly with magnetic field, whereas at low temperatures the critical current is less anisotropic and the anisotropy is field independent above 1 T. In the former case we believe we are in a regime, where pinning limits Jc, at least within some parts of the tape, whereas in the latter case the limitation of Jc by Josephson weak links seems to be the dominant mechanism. In addition, a critical current hysteresis induced by flux trapping in a weak link network is observed, which is more pronounced at low temperatures. From transmission electron microscopy observations of the microstructure we find that the ‘‘brick’’ in the ‘‘brick wall’’ model turns out to be the colony instead of the grain inside the colony. Additionally it is found that colony boundaries parallel the ab plane and intersected boundaries occur much more frequently than boundaries parallel to the c axis, due to the misalignment of the colonies inside the tape. In a small region near the silver sheath colony misalignment is much smaller and boundaries parallel to the c axis may act as strong links at high temperatures as their interfaces are very clean and well matched.

Effect of sintering periods on the microstructure and electrical transport properties of high-Tc superconducting Bi-(Pb)-Sr-Ca-Cu-O tapes
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 05-1996
Abstract: The effect of sintering periods for monocore (Bi, Pb) 2 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 10+ x (Bi-2223) tapes on microstructure and critical current density (J c ) have been studied. The results show that long sintering periods (of duration ≥100 h) give better grain growth, but greater misalignment. Prolonged sintering also necessitates the increase in porosity of the core due to random grain growth, increasing the chance of penetrating into the silver matrix and oxide core interface. Critical currents for long sintering periods are found to be lower in comparison with those obtained for slightly shorter sintering periods. The increase in frequency of intermediate cold uniaxial pressing between sintering periods assists grain alignment. However, when the sintering period is further reduced by increasing the frequency of intermediate deformation, it is found that microcracks are unable to heal as there is not enough time for grain regrowth. The tapes made using “three-to-four-sinter-period” (each period ∼60 h) show superior electrical transport properties which are attributable to the fact that their oxide core is more dense and better aligned relative to the “two-sinter-period” (each period ≥100 h) tapes and contain less cracks relative to the “five-to-six-sinter-period” (each period ∼40 h) tapes.

Effects of reducing temperatures on the hydrogen storage capacity of double-walled carbon nanotubes with Pd loading
Publisher: American Scientific Publishers
Date: 06-2014
Abstract: The effects of different temperatures on the hydrogen sorption characteristics of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) with palladium loading have been investigated. When we use different temperatures, the particle sizes and specific surface areas of the s les are different, which affects the hydrogen storage capacity of the DWCNTs. In this work, the amount of hydrogen storage capacity was determined (by AMC Gas Reactor Controller) to be 1.70, 1.85, 2.00, and 1.93 wt% for pristine DWCNTS and for 2%Pd/DWCNTs-300 degrees C, 2%Pd/DWCNTs-400 degrees C, and 2%Pd/DWCNTs-500 degrees C, respectively. We found that the hydrogen storage capacity can be enhanced by loading with 2% Pd nanoparticles and selecting a suitable temperature. Furthermore, the sorption can be attributed to the chemical reaction between atomic hydrogen and the dangling bonds of the DWCNTs.

Effects of Carbon Content on the Electrochemical Performances of MoS2–C Nanocomposites for Li-Ion Batteries
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 22-08-2016
Abstract: Molybdenum disulfide is popular for rechargeable batteries, especially in Li-ion batteries, because of its layered structure and relatively high specific capacity. In this paper, we report MoS2-C nanocomposites that are synthesized by a hydrothermal process, and their use as anode material for Li-ion batteries. Ascorbic acid is used as the carbon source, and the carbon contents can be tuned from 2.5 wt % to 16.2 wt %. With increasing of carbon content, the morphology of MoS2-C nanocomposites changes from nanoflowers to nanospheres, and the particle size is decreased from 200 to 60 nm. This change is caused by the chemical complex interaction of ascorbic acid. The MoS2-C nanocomposite with 8.4 wt % C features a high capacity of 970 mAh g(-1) and sustains a capacity retention ratio of nearly 100% after 100 cycles. When the current increases to 1000 mA g(-1), the capacity still reaches 730 mAh g(-1). The above manifests that the carbon coating layer does not only accelerate the charge transfer kinetics to supply quick discharging and charging, but also hold the integrity of the electrode materials as evidenced by the long cycling stability. Therefore, MoS2-based nanocomposites could be used as commercial anode materials in Li-ion batteries.
A Metal-Free, Free-Standing, Macroporous Graphene@g-C3N4 Composite Air Electrode for High-Energy Lithium Oxygen Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 16-02-2015
Abstract: The nonaqueous lithium oxygen battery is a promising candidate as a next-generation energy storage system because of its potentially high energy density (up to 2-3 kW kg(-1)), exceeding that of any other existing energy storage system for storing sustainable and clean energy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the consumption of nonrenewable fossil fuels. To achieve high energy density, long cycling stability, and low cost, the air electrode structure and the electrocatalysts play important roles. Here, a metal-free, free-standing macroporous graphene@graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) composite air cathode is first reported, in which the g-C3N4 nanosheets can act as efficient electrocatalysts, and the macroporous graphene nanosheets can provide space for Li2O2 to deposit and also promote the electron transfer. The electrochemical results on the graphene@g-C3N4 composite air electrode show a 0.48 V lower charging plateau and a 0.13 V higher discharging plateau than those of pure graphene air electrode, with a discharge capacity of nearly 17300 mA h g(-1)(composite) . Excellent cycling performance, with terminal voltage higher than 2.4 V after 105 cycles at 1000 mA h g(-1)(composite) capacity, can also be achieved. Therefore, this hybrid material is a promising candidate for use as a high energy, long-cycle-life, and low-cost cathode material for lithium oxygen batteries.

Foam-like, microstructural SnO2-carbon composite thin films synthesized via a polyol-assisted thermal decomposition method
Publisher: Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC)
Date: 2009
DOI: 10.1039/B815588G
Abstract: Foam-like, microstructural SnO2-carbon composite thin films were synthesized by refluxing SnCl2.2H2O in ethylene glycol (EG) at 195 degrees C for 4 h under vigorous stirring in air followed by thermal decomposition of the as-synthesized precursor solution, whereby the products were deposited onto stainless steel (SS) substrates. Subsequently, the decomposed product, which now consists only of the microstructural SnO2-carbon composite thin film, without the addition of any binder and carbon black conductive agent, was directly applied as an anode material for use in a Li-ion rechargeable battery. Physical and electrochemical characterizations of the as-synthesized thin films were carried out. The foam-like, microstructural SnO2-carbon composite thin films that undergo thermal decomposition in air at 300 degrees C demonstrated the best cyclability, delivering a specific discharge capacity of approximately 496 mAh g(-1) beyond 100 cycles. We believe that the presence of a uniform, SnO2-carbon network throughout the foam-like thin film, acts not only as an improved conducting network but also buffered the volume expansion upon Li-Sn alloying, resulting in a much improved cycling of the composite thin film electrode.

Abstract: One-dimensional (1D) CdSe nanostructures, including nanowires, nanotubes, nanorods, nanobelts, and even nanostructures resembling saws and tree branches, have been synthesized by sublimation of CdSe powders under various experimental conditions. These 1D CdSe nanostructures were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy observations, and Raman spectroscopy. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy analysis confirmed the chemical stoichiometry of the CdSe nanostructures. It was found that the geometrical morphologies of the CdSe 1D nanostructures were significantly influenced by the synthetic parameters.

DOI: 10.1039/C2CP40410A
Abstract: Here, we report the fabrication of self-organized titania (TiO(2)) nanotube array supercapacitor electrodes through controlled phase transformation of TiO(2), with aerial capacitances as high as 2.6 mF cm(-2), which far exceeds the values so far reported in the literature. The role of phase transformation in the electrochemical charge-discharge behaviour of nanocrystalline TiO(2) nanotubes is investigated and discussed in detail. The ease of synthesis and the exceptional electrochemical properties make these nanotube arrays an alternative candidate for use in energy storage devices.

Oxygen Vacancy-Rich Ultrathin Co3O4 Nanosheets as Nanofillers in Solid-Polymer Electrolyte for High-Performance Lithium Metal Batteries
Publisher: MDPI AG
Date: 08-04-2023
Abstract: The development of high-performance solid-polymer electrolytes (SPEs) is a key to the practical application of lithium metal batteries (LMBs). The use of two-dimensional (2D) inorganic nanofiller is an efficient way to build poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)-based SPEs with high ionic conductivity and stability. Herein, a series of 2D oxygen vacancy-rich Co3O4-y−x (x = 1, 2 and 3) with well-defined 2D nanostructures, a high surface area and controllable oxygen vacancy contents (Co3O4-y) was synthesized via a facile self-assembly method and NaBH4 reduction. When the 2D Co3O4-y−x (x = 1, 2 and 3) nanosheets are introduced as nanofillers in PEO-based SPEs, they can interact with the PEO to form a three-dimensional (3D) PEO/Co3O4-y film with uniform Li+ distribution and vertical diffusion channels, as well as strong adsorption of NO3− from LiNO3 electrolyte salt at the defective sites. As a result, the PEO/Co3O4-y−2 film reached a high ionic conductivity of 4.9 × 10−5 S cm−1, high Li+ a transference number of 0.51 and a wide electrochemical window over 4.6 V at 80 °C. The PEO/Co3O4-y−2 film enables the Li||PEO/Co3O4-y−2||LiFePO4 cell to deliver a high reversible capacity of 117.7 mAh g−1 at 2 C and to maintain 126.7 mAh g−1 at 1 C after 250 cycles with an initial capacity retention of 87.9%.

Boosted Charge Transfer in SnS/SnO2 Heterostructures: Toward High Rate Capability for Sodium-Ion Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 04-02-2016
Abstract: Constructing heterostructures can endow materials with fascinating performance in high-speed electronics, optoelectronics, and other applications owing to the built-in charge-transfer driving force, which is of benefit to the specific charge-transfer kinetics. Rational design and controllable synthesis of nano-heterostructure anode materials with high-rate performance, however, still remains a great challenge. Herein, ultrafine SnS/SnO2 heterostructures were successfully fabricated and showed enhanced charge-transfer capability. The mobility enhancement is attributed to the interface effect of heterostructures, which induces an electric field within the nanocrystals, giving them much lower ion-diffusion resistance and facilitating interfacial electron transport.

Ammonium Aminodiboranate: A Long-Sought Isomer of Diammoniate of Diborane and Ammonia Borane Dimer
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 26-04-2016
Abstract: Ammonium aminodiboranate ([NH4 ][BH3 NH2 BH3 ]) is a long-sought isomer of diammoniate of diborane ([NH3 BH2 NH3 ][BH4 ]) and ammonia borane (NH3 BH3 ) dimer. Our results show that [NH4 ][BH3 NH2 BH3 ] is stable in tetrahydrofuran at -18 °C and decomposes rapidly to NH3 BH2 NH2 BH3 and H2 at elevated temperatures. The decomposition pathway is dictated by the dihydrogen bonding between H(δ+) on NH4 (+) and H(δ-) on BH3 , as confirmed by theoretical calculations. This is in contrast to the interconversion between [NH3 BH2 NH3 ][BH4 ] and (NH3 BH3 )2 , although all three have dihydrogen bonds and the same stoichiometry.

Abstract: Hierarchical networks with highly interconnected V2O5 nanosheets (NSs) anchored on skeletons of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are prepared by a facile hydrothermal treatment and a following calcination for the first time. Benefiting from these unique structural features, the as-prepared CNT@V2O5 material shows dramatically excellent electrochemical performance with remarkable long cyclability (137-116 mA h g(-1) after 400 cycles) at various high rates (20 C to 30 C) and very good rate capability for highly reversible lithium storage. The excellent electrochemical performance suggests its promising use as a cathode material for future lithium-ion batteries.

Nanomaterials for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries

Date: 2006
DOI: 10.1166/JNN.2006.103
Abstract: In lithium-ion batteries, nanocrystalline intermetallic alloys, nanosized composite materials, carbon nanotubes, and nanosized transition-metal oxides are all promising new anode materials, while nanosized LiCoO 2 , LiFePO 4 , LiMn 2 O 4 , and LiMn 2 O 4 show higher capacity and better cycle life as cathode materials than their usual larger-particle equivalents. The addition of nanosized metal-oxide powders to polymer electrolyte improves the performance of the polymer electrolyte for all solid-state lithium rechargeable batteries. To meet the challenge of global warming, a new generation of lithium rechargeable batteries with excellent safety, reliability, and cycling life is needed, i.e., not only for applications in consumer electronics, but especially for clean energy storage and for use in hybrid electric vehicles and aerospace. Nanomaterials and nanotechnologies can lead to a new generation of lithium secondary batteries. The aim of this paper is to review the recent developments on nanomaterials and nanotechniques used for anode, cathode, and electrolyte materials, the impact of nanomaterials on the performance of lithium batteries, and the modes of action of the nanomaterials in lithium rechargeable batteries.

Functional membrane separators for next-generation high-energy rechargeable batteries

Date: 04-04-2017
DOI: 10.1093/NSR/NWX037
Abstract: The membrane separator is a key component in a liquid-electrolyte battery for electrically separating the cathode and the anode, meanwhile ensuring ionic transport between them. Besides these basic requirements, endowing the separator with specific beneficial functions is now being paid great attention because it provides an important alternative approach for the development of batteries, particularly next-generation high-energy rechargeable batteries. Herein, functional separators are overviewed based on four key criteria of next-generation high-energy rechargeable batteries: stable, safe, smart and sustainable (4S). That is, the applied membrane materials and the corresponding functioning mechanisms of the 4S separators are reviewed. Functional separators with selective permeability have been applied to retard unwanted migration of the specific species (e.g. polysulfide anions in Li-S batteries) from one electrode to the other in order to achieve stable cycling operation. The covered battery types are Li-S, room-temperature Na-S, Li-organic, organic redox-flow (RF) and Li-air batteries. Safe, smart and sustainable separators are then described in sequence following the first criterion of stable cycling. In the final section, key challenges and potential opportunities in the development of 4S separators are discussed.

Superconductivity in a Ag-doped Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system
Publisher: AIP Publishing
Date: 29-01-1990
DOI: 10.1063/1.103298
Abstract: For the Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BPSCCO) system, a consistent set of data for Tc, x-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy shows that Ag additions strongly react with BPSCCO to destabilize the 110 K superconducting phase, resulting in a strong depression in Tc and lattice parameters when s les are treated in air or pure oxygen. This is in contrast to the behavior for the Y-Ba-Cu-O and Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O systems, which do not show such degradation. However, Ag additions show no effects on Tc and lattice parameters when s les are treated under low oxygen pressure. The formation of a low-melting eutectic liquid with Ag2O-PbO-CuO solid solution affects the composition of the superconducting phase and degrades superconductivity, while the eutectic may be suppressed by reducing the oxygen partial pressure.

Reversible structural evolution of sodium-rich rhombohedral Prussian blue for sodium-ion batteries
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 20-02-2020
DOI: 10.1038/S41467-020-14444-4
Abstract: Iron-based Prussian blue analogs are promising low-cost and easily prepared cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries. Their materials quality and electrochemical performance are heavily reliant on the precipitation process. Here we report a controllable precipitation method to synthesize high-performance Prussian blue for sodium-ion storage. Characterization of the nucleation and evolution processes of the highly crystalline Prussian blue microcubes reveals a rhombohedral structure that exhibits high initial Coulombic efficiency, excellent rate performance, and cycling properties. The phase transitions in the as-obtained material are investigated by synchrotron in situ powder X-ray diffraction, which shows highly reversible structural transformations between rhombohedral, cubic, and tetragonal structures upon sodium-ion (de)intercalations. Moreover, the Prussian blue material from a large-scale synthesis process shows stable cycling performance in a pouch full cell over 1000 times. We believe that this work could pave the way for the real application of Prussian blue materials in sodium-ion batteries.

Recent Progress in Graphite Intercalation Compounds for Rechargeable Metal (Li, Na, K, Al)-Ion Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 23-06-2017
Abstract: Lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) with higher energy density are very necessary to meet the increasing demand for devices with better performance. With the commercial success of lithiated graphite, other graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) have also been intensively reported, not only for LIBs, but also for other metal (Na, K, Al) ion batteries. In this Progress Report, we briefly review the application of GICs as anodes and cathodes in metal (Li, Na, K, Al) ion batteries. After a brief introduction on the development history of GICs, the electrochemistry of cationic GICs and anionic GICs is summarized. We further briefly summarize the use of cationic GICs and anionic GICs in alkali ion batteries and the use of anionic GICs in aluminium‐ion batteries. Finally, we reach some conclusions on the drawbacks, major progress, emerging challenges, and some perspectives on the development of GICs for metal (Li, Na, K, Al) ion batteries. Further development of GICs for metal (Li, Na, K, Al) ion batteries is not only a strong supplement to the commercialized success of lithiated‐graphite for LIBs, but also an effective strategy to develop erse high‐energy batteries for stationary energy storage in the future.

High-performance sodium-ion batteries and sodium-ion pseudocapacitors based on MoS2/graphene composites
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 02-07-2014
Abstract: Sodium-ion energy storage, including sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) and electrochemical capacitive storage (NICs), is considered as a promising alternative to lithium-ion energy storage. It is an intriguing prospect, especially for large-scale applications, owing to its low cost and abundance. MoS2 sodiation/desodiation with Na ions is based on the conversion reaction, which is not only able to deliver higher capacity than the intercalation reaction, but can also be applied in capacitive storage owing to its typically sloping charge/discharge curves. Here, NIBs and NICs based on a graphene composite (MoS2 /G) were constructed. The enlarged d-spacing, a contribution of the graphene matrix, and the unique properties of the MoS2 /G substantially optimize Na storage behavior, by accommodating large volume changes and facilitating fast ion diffusion. MoS2 /G exhibits a stable capacity of approximately 350 mAh g(-1) over 200 cycles at 0.25 C in half cells, and delivers a capacitance of 50 F g(-1) over 2000 cycles at 1.5 C in pseudocapacitors with a wide voltage window of 0.1-2.5 V.

A Strategy for Configuration of an Integrated Flexible Sulfur Cathode for High-Performance Lithium-Sulfur Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 17-02-2016
Abstract: Lithium-sulfur batteries are regarded as promising candidates for energy storage devices owing to their high theoretical energy density. The practical application is hindered, however, by low sulfur utilization and unsatisfactory capacity retention. Herein, we present a strategy for configuration of the sulfur cathode, which is composed of an integrated carbon/sulfur/carbon sandwich structure on polypropylene separator that is produced using the simple doctor-blade technique. The integrated electrode exhibits excellent flexibility and high mechanical strength. The upper and bottom carbon layers of the sandwich-structured electrode not only work as double current collectors, which effectively improve the conductivity of the electrode, but also serve as good barriers to suppress the diffusion of the polysulfide and buffer the volume expansion of the active materials, leading to suppression of the shuttle effect and low self-discharge behavior.

Publisher: Wiley
Date: 28-03-2014
Abstract: In recent years, the controlled synthesis of inorganic micro- and nanostructures with hollow interiors has attracted considerable attention because of their widespread potential applications. A feasible method for synthesizing Li3 VO4 by a template-free, solution synthesis of single-crystalline microboxes with well-defined non-spherical morphologies has been reported. This study provides the useful information to produce other hollow structure materials to the broad audience of readers. The formation of hollow structure and the influence of raw materials have been presented. The thus-synthesized Li3 VO4 exhibited significantly improved conductivity, rate capability, and cycling life compared to commercial graphite, synthesized Li4 Ti5 O12 , and previously reported Li3 VO4 .

Enhancement of ionic conductivity of PEO based polymer electrolyte by the addition of nanosize ceramic powders
Publisher: American Scientific Publishers
Date: 07-2005
DOI: 10.1166/JNN.2005.165
Abstract: The ionic conductivity of polyethylene oxide (PEO) based solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) has been improved by the addition of nanosize ceramic powders (TiO2 and AL2O3). The PEO based solid polymer electrolytes were prepared by the solution-casting method. Electrochemical measurement shows that the 10 wt% TiO2 PEO-LiClO4 polymer electrolyte has the best ionic conductivity (about 10(-4) S cm(-1) at 40-60 degrees C). The lithium transference number of the 10 wt% TiO2 PEO-LiClO4 polymer electrolyte was measured to be 0.47, which is much higher than that of bare PEO polymer electrolyte. Ac impedance testing shows that the interface resistance of ceramic-added PEO polymer electrolyte is stable. Linear sweep voltammetry measurement shows that the PEO polymer electrolytes are electrochemically stable in the voltage range of 2.0-5.0 V versus a Li/Li+ reference electrode.

Abstract: The effects of Ni substitution on the magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of (Mn1−xNix)3Sn2 compounds (x=0–0.5) have been investigated by x-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. It was found that Ni substitution decreases the crystal cell volume and the magnetic transition temperatures compared with pure Mn3Sn2. The MCE for all s les has been calculated from the magnetization data in terms of the isothermal magnetic entropy change ΔSM. The maximum values of ΔSMmax at the magnetic phase transition temperatures resulting from a change in magnetic field of ΔH=5 T were found to be 28.2 mJ/cm3 K for Mn3Sn2 (TC1∼257 K), increasing to 31.2 mJ/cm3 K for (Mn0.9Ni0.1)3Sn2 (TC∼167 K).

Phosphorous and Nitrogen Dual-Doped Carbon as a Highly Efficient Electrocatalyst for Sodium-Oxygen Batteries
Publisher: Research Square Platform LLC
Date: 16-09-2020
DOI: 10.21203/RS.3.RS-74647/V1
Abstract: Sodium-oxygen batteries have been regarded as promising energy storage devices due to their low overpotential and high energy density. Its applications, however, still face formidable challenges due to the lack of understanding about the influence of electrocatalysts on discharge products. Here, a phosphorous and nitrogen dual-doped carbon (PNDC) based cathode is synthesized to increase the electrocatalytic activity and to stabilize the NaO2 nanoparticle discharge products, leading to enhanced cycling stability when compared with the nitrogen-doped carbon (NDC). The PNDC air cathode exhibits a quite low overpotential (0.36 V) and long cycling stability for 120 cycles. The reversible formation/decomposition and stabilize ability of NaO2 discharge products are clearly proven by in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction and ex-situ X-ray diffraction. Based on the density functional theory calculation, the PNDC has much stronger adsorption energy (-2.85 eV) for NaO2 than that of NDC (-1.80 eV), which could efficiently stabilize the NaO2 discharge products.

DOI: 10.1063/1.106823
Abstract: A significant enhancement of the Jc in magnetic field in the Ag-clad Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (BPSCCO) wires has been achieved by using a short period melt processing. The weak links have been largely eliminated in the melt-processed tapes which exhibits a 3–10-fold increase in the Jc at 77 K and 1 T over the normally processed tapes. For tapes with a thickness 80 μm 60% of melt-processed s les have the Jc values between 10 000 and 27 000 A/cm2 at 77 K in zero field. The irreversibility lines determined using ac susceptibility measurements under dc fields confirmed the improvement of flux pinning in the melt-processed tapes compared with the normally processed tapes. The improved Jc-H characteristics may be attributed to the desirable microstructures produced from the high Tc phase formation-decomposition-recovery process through the use of a short period melting.

DOI: 10.1021/AM502343S
Abstract: Sodium-ion batteries can be the best alternative to lithium-ion batteries, because of their similar electrochemistry, nontoxicity, and elemental abundance and the low cost of sodium. They still stand in need of better cathodes in terms of their structural and electrochemical aspects. Accordingly, the present study reports the first ex le of the preparation of Na2/3(Fe1/2Mn1/2)O2 hierarchical nanofibers by electrospinning. The nanofibers with aggregated nanocrystallites along the fiber direction have been characterized structurally and electrochemically, resulting in enhanced cyclability when compared to nanoparticles, with initial discharge capacity of ∼195 mAh g(-1). This is attributed to the good interconnection among the fibers, with well-guided charge transfers and better electrolyte contacts.

Reverse Microemulsion Synthesis of Sulfur/Graphene Composite for Lithium/Sulfur Batteries
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 05-09-2017
Abstract: Due to its high theoretical capacity, high energy density, and easy availability, the lithium-sulfur (Li-S) system is considered to be the most promising candidate for electric and hybrid electric vehicle applications. Sulfur/carbon cathode in Li-S batteries still suffers, however, from low Coulombic efficiency and poor cycle life when sulfur loading and the ratio of sulfur to carbon are high. Here, we address these challenges by fabricating a sulfur/carboxylated-graphene composite using a reverse (water-in-oil) microemulsion technique. The fabricated sulfur-graphene composite cathode, which contains only 6 wt % graphene, can dramatically improve the cycling stability as well as provide high capacity. The electrochemical performance of the sulfur-graphene composite is further enhanced after loading into a three-dimensional heteroatom-doped (boron and nitrogen) carbon-cloth current collector. Even at high sulfur loading (∼8 mg/cm
Hydrogen storage materials for mobile and stationary applications: Current state of the art
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 06-2015
Abstract: One of the limitations to the widespread use of hydrogen as an energy carrier is its storage in a safe and compact form. Herein, recent developments in effective high-capacity hydrogen storage materials are reviewed, with a special emphasis on light compounds, including those based on organic porous structures, boron, nitrogen, and aluminum. These elements and their related compounds hold the promise of high, reversible, and practical hydrogen storage capacity for mobile applications, including vehicles and portable power equipment, but also for the large scale and distributed storage of energy for stationary applications. Current understanding of the fundamental principles that govern the interaction of hydrogen with these light compounds is summarized, as well as basic strategies to meet practical targets of hydrogen uptake and release. The limitation of these strategies and current understanding is also discussed and new directions proposed.

Abstract: Microstructures of 27-filament (Bi, Pb) 2 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 10+ x (BPSCCO 2223) tape at various stages of repetitive rolling and sintering have been investigated using TEM and SEM. It was found that the dislocation density increases with increasing sintering time with the maximum dislocation density of 10 12 /cm 2 achieved for tapes sintered for 220 h. The interface between Ag-sheath and oxide core was observed to be wavelike. Small irregular 2223 colonies and cracks in the oxide cores were often observed near the Ag-sheath/oxide core interface. Repetitively rolled and sintered specimen with a total sintering time of 220 h was observed to have optimum phase purity of 2223 phase. Prolonged sintering results in recrystallization of the 2223 grains, degrading the texture of the oxide core.
Metal telluride-nitride electrocatalysts for sustainably overall seawater electrolysis
Publisher: Research Square Platform LLC
Date: 29-10-2021
DOI: 10.21203/RS.3.RS-1007058/V1
Abstract: High-efficiency alkaline seawater electrolysis is a promising strategy to promote the sustainability of wide-ranging hydrogen (H 2 ) production, and the global goal of carbon neutrality. Searching for an ideal candidate with low cost and high electrocatalytic performance for both the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a major objective. Herein, we report delicate, heterostuctured NiTe-NiCoN and NiTe-NiFeN electrocatalysts constructed of nickel cobalt nitride and nickel iron nitride nanosheets uniformly anchored on NiTe nanorod arrays, respectively, which ensure outstanding HER and OER activity along with ultra-long-term stability. Impressively, the NiTe-NiCoN || NiTe-NiFeN couples in alkaline seawater solution delivered 500 mA cm −2 at a record low voltage of 1.84 V, and realized an industry-level performance via a solar-powered system and a wind-power system. Further comprehensive analysis has revealed that interface engineering strategy not only ensures that the surficial nitride exposes abundant active sites, but also induces electron modulation that optimizes the binding strength of absorption/desorption for the reaction intermediates to enhanced the the intrinsic activity, as well as facilitate faster electron-mass transfer. Notably, a high electric field intensity generated by the unique nanosheet-nanorod structure induces a local “hydroxide enrichment” environment that effectively promotes the OER kinetics, while inhibits the side effects of chlorine. This work shed lights on these novel heterostructured electrocatalysts with strong synergy, while demonstrating the key role of the unique nanostructures in high-efficiency seawater electrolysis.

Unique Urchin-like Ca2Ge7O16 Hierarchical Hollow Microspheres as Anode Material for the Lithium Ion Battery
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 10-06-2015
DOI: 10.1038/SREP11326
Abstract: Germanium is an outstanding anode material in terms of electrochemical performance, especially rate capability, but its developments are hindered by its high price because it is rare in the crust of earth and its huge volume variation during the lithium insertion and extraction. Introducing other cheaper elements into the germanium-based material is an efficient way to dilute the high price, but normally sacrifice its electrochemical performance. By the combination of nanostructure design and cheap element (calcium) introduction, urchin-like Ca 2 Ge 7 O 16 hierarchical hollow microspheres have been successfully developed in order to reduce the price and maintain the good electrochemical properties of germanium-based material. The electrochemical test results in different electrolytes show that ethylene carbonate/dimethyl carbonate/diethyl carbonate (3/4/3 by volume) with 5 wt% fluoroethylene carbonate additive is the most suitable solvent for the electrolyte. From the electrochemical evaluation, the as-synthesized Ca 2 Ge 7 O 16 hollow microspheres exhibit high reversible specific capacity of up to 804.6 mA h g −1 at a current density of 100 mA g −1 after 100 cycles and remarkable rate capability of 341.3 mA h g −1 at a current density of 4 A g −1 . The growth mechanism is proposed based on our experimental results on the growth process.

Because of the charge pathways, both for the electrons and the lithium ions, and the buffering function provided by both the carbon encapsulating the SnO 2 nanoparticles and the mesopores, which tends to alleviate the volumetric effects during the charge/discharge cycles, the nanofibers display a greatly improved reversible capacity of 420 mAh/g after 100 cycles at a constant current of 100 mA/g, and a sharply enhanced reversible capacity at higher rates (0.5, 1, and 2 C) compared with pure SnO 2 nanofibers, which makes it a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries.

Uniform yolk-shell iron sulfide–carbon nanospheres for superior sodium–iron sulfide batteries
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 28-10-2015
DOI: 10.1038/NCOMMS9689
Abstract: Sodium–metal sulfide battery holds great promise for sustainable and cost-effective applications. Nevertheless, achieving high capacity and cycling stability remains a great challenge. Here, uniform yolk-shell iron sulfide–carbon nanospheres have been synthesized as cathode materials for the emerging sodium sulfide battery to achieve remarkable capacity of ∼545 mA h g −1 over 100 cycles at 0.2 C (100 mA g −1 ), delivering ultrahigh energy density of ∼438 Wh kg −1 . The proven conversion reaction between sodium and iron sulfide results in high capacity but severe volume changes. Nanostructural design, including of nanosized iron sulfide yolks (∼170 nm) with porous carbon shells (∼30 nm) and extra void space (∼20 nm) in between, has been used to achieve excellent cycling performance without sacrificing capacity. This sustainable sodium–iron sulfide battery is a promising candidate for stationary energy storage. Furthermore, this spatially confined sulfuration strategy offers a general method for other yolk-shell metal sulfide–carbon composites.

Abstract: Nearly 95 vol % of the 110 K superconducting phase was formed by lead doping in a Bi–Sr–Ca–Cu–O system. The processed 110 K superconducting powders were used to produce long silver-sheathed tapes with a highly textured microstructure by rolling and prolonged sintering. The transport critical current density was measured at 4.0 K to be 0.7×105 A/cm2 (the corresponding critical current is 74 A) at zero field and 1.6×104 A/cm2 at 12 T for H∥ab. At 76 K, the critical current density reached a value of ∼1×104 A/cm2 at zero field for H∥ab and gradually decreased to 419 A/cm2 at 1 T. Excellent grain alignment in the a–b plane led to greatly improved critical current densities under a magnetic field. The relationship between the transport properties and the microstructure of the tapes is discussed.

Catalytic role of ge in highly reversible GeO2/Ge/C nanocomposite anode material for lithium batteries
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 06-02-2013
DOI: 10.1021/NL304716E
Abstract: GeO2/Ge/C anode material synthesized using a simple method involving simultaneous carbon coating and reduction by acetylene gas is composed of nanosized GeO2/Ge particles coated by a thin layer of carbon, which is also interconnected between neighboring particles to form clusters of up to 30 μm. The GeO2/Ge/C composite shows a high capacity of up to 1860 mAh/g and 1680 mAh/g at 1 C (2.1 A/g) and 10 C rates, respectively. This good electrochemical performance is related to the fact that the elemental germanium nanoparticles present in the composite increases the reversibility of the conversion reaction of GeO2. These factors have been found through investigating and comparing GeO2/Ge/C, GeO2/C, nanosized GeO2, and bulk GeO2.

Few Atomic Layered Lithium Cathode Materials to Achieve Ultrahigh Rate Capability in Lithium-Ion Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 07-07-2017
Abstract: The most promising cathode materials, including LiCoO 2 (layered), LiMn 2 O 4 (spinel), and LiFePO 4 (olivine), have been the focus of intense research to develop rechargeable lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) for portable electronic devices. Sluggish lithium diffusion, however, and unsatisfactory long‐term cycling performance still limit the development of present LIBs for several applications, such as plug‐in/hybrid electric vehicles. Motivated by the success of graphene and novel 2D materials with unique physical and chemical properties, herein, a simple shear‐assisted mechanical exfoliation method to synthesize few‐layered nanosheets of LiCoO 2 , LiMn 2 O 4 , and LiFePO 4 is used. Importantly, these as‐prepared nanosheets with preferred orientations and optimized stable structures exhibit excellent C‐rate capability and long‐term cycling performance with much reduced volume expansion during cycling. In particular, the zero‐strain insertion phenomenon could be achieved in 2–3 such layers of LiCoO 2 electrode materials, which could open up a new way to the further development of next‐generation long‐life and high‐rate batteries.
Binder-Free and Carbon-Free 3D Porous Air Electrode for Li-O-2 Batteries with High Efficiency, High Capacity, and Long Life
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 27-04-2016
Abstract: Pt-Gd alloy polycrystalline thin film is deposited on 3D nickel foam by pulsed laser deposition method serving as a whole binder/carbon-free air electrode, showing great catalytic activity enhancement as an efficient bifunctional catalyst for the oxygen reduction and evolution reactions in lithium oxygen batteries. The porous structure can facilitate rapid O2 and electrolyte diffusion, as well as forming a continuous conductive network throughout the whole energy conversion process. It shows a favorable cycle performance in the full discharge/charge model, owing to the high catalytic activity of the Pt-Gd alloy composite and 3D porous nickel foam structure. Specially, excellent cycling performance under capacity limited mode is also demonstrated, in which the terminal discharge voltage is higher than 2.5 V and the terminal charge voltage is lower than 3.7 V after 100 cycles at a current density of 0.1 mA cm(-2) . Therefore, this electrocatalyst is a promising bifunctional electrocatalyst for lithium oxygen batteries and this depositing high-efficient electrocatalyst on porous substrate with polycrystalline thin film by pulsed laser deposition is also a promising technique in the future lithium oxygen batteries research.

Graphene‐Encapsulated Fe3O4 Nanoparticles with 3D Laminated Structure as Superior Anode in Lithium Ion Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 05-11-2010
Abstract: Fe(3)O(4)-graphene composites with three-dimensional laminated structures have been synthesised by a simple in situ hydrothermal method. From field-emission and transmission electron microscopy results, the Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles, around 3-15 nm in size, are highly encapsulated in a graphene nanosheet matrix. The reversible Li-cycling properties of Fe(3)O(4)-graphene have been evaluated by galvanostatic discharge-charge cycling, cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy. Results show that the Fe(3)O(4)-graphene nanocomposite with a graphene content of 38.0 wt % exhibits a stable capacity of about 650 mAh g(-1) with no noticeable fading for up to 100 cycles in the voltage range of 0.0-3.0 V. The superior performance of Fe(3)O(4)-graphene is clearly established by comparison of the results with those from bare Fe(3)O(4). The graphene nanosheets in the composite materials could act not only as lithium storage active materials, but also as an electronically conductive matrix to improve the electrochemical performance of Fe(3)O(4).

Hexagonal-shaped tin glycolate particles: A preliminary study of their suitability as Li-ion insertion electrodes
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 28-04-2008
Abstract: Tin glycolate particles were prepared by a simple, one-step, polyol-mediated synthesis in air in which tin oxalate precursor was added to ethylene glycol and heated at reflux. Hexagonal-shaped, micron-sized tin glycolate particles were formed when the solution had cooled. A series of tin oxides was produced by calcination of the synthesized tin glycolate at 600-800 degrees C. It was revealed that the micron-sized, hexagonal-shaped tin glycolate now consisted of nanosized tin-based particles (80-120 nm), encapsulated within a tin glycolate shell. XRD, TGA, and FT-IR measurements were conducted to account for the three-dimensional growth of the tin glycolate particles. When applied as an anode material for Li-ion batteries, the synthesized tin glycolate particles showed good electrochemical reactivity in Li-ion insertion/deinsertion, retaining a specific capacity of 416 mAh g(-1) beyond 50 cycles. This performance was significantly better than those of all the other tin oxides nanoparticles (<160 mAh g(-1)) obtained after heat treatment in air. We strongly believe that the buffering of the volume expansion by the glycolate upon Li-Sn alloying is the main factor for the improved cycling of the electrode.

Abstract: Li2CuSnO4 and Li2CuSnSiO6 were prepared from their precursors compounds using Brij surfactant and a hydrothermal autoclave method. X-ray diffraction characterization revealed that the crystal structures of these compounds were tetragonal. Scanning electron microscope investigation showed the particle size morphology of Li2CuSnSiO6 is larger than that of Li2CuSnO4. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) explained that Li2CuSnO4 cell had higher charge transfer resistance (Rct = 2936Ω) than that of Li2CuSnSiO6 (38Ω). Furthermore, the reversible specific discharge capacity of the Li2CuSnSiO6 cell was 870 mAh/g in comparison with 780 mAh/g for the Li2CuSnO4 cell after 100 cycles, which is even higher than the theoretical value of Sn, 783 mAh/g.

Atomic cobalt as an efficient electrocatalyst in sulfur cathodes for superior room-temperature sodium-sulfur batteries
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 04-10-2018
DOI: 10.1038/S41467-018-06144-X
Abstract: The low-cost room-temperature sodium-sulfur battery system is arousing extensive interest owing to its promise for large-scale applications. Although significant efforts have been made, resolving low sulfur reaction activity and severe polysulfide dissolution remains challenging. Here, a sulfur host comprised of atomic cobalt-decorated hollow carbon nanospheres is synthesized to enhance sulfur reactivity and to electrocatalytically reduce polysulfide into the final product, sodium sulfide. The constructed sulfur cathode delivers an initial reversible capacity of 1081 mA h g −1 with 64.7% sulfur utilization rate significantly, the cell retained a high reversible capacity of 508 mA h g −1 at 100 mA g −1 after 600 cycles. An excellent rate capability is achieved with an average capacity of 220.3 mA h g −1 at the high current density of 5 A g −1 . Moreover, the electrocatalytic effects of atomic cobalt are clearly evidenced by operando Raman spectroscopy, synchrotron X-ray diffraction, and density functional theory.

Abstract: The spiral growth mechanisms associated with the growth conditions of Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O y (Bi-2212) crystals grown at a KCI surface have been studied. The spiral growth mechanisms and the effects of growth conditions on the formation of spirals in YBa 2 Cu 3 O y (Y-123) thin films and single crystal have also been studied. Screw dislocation formation mechanism in the Bi2212 is different from that in Y-123. A model for a "vapour" deposition process with discontinuous growth conditions is put forward. It is proposed that spiral growth in Bi-2212 is similar to that in Y-123 thin films produced by Pulsed Laser Deposition. It is concluded that the formation of screw dislocations and discontinuous growth conditions are responsible for the coexistence between spiral and two-dimensional nucleation growth.
Mass Production and Pore Size Control of Holey Carbon Microcages
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 04-10-2017
Abstract: Architectural control of porous solids, such as porous carbon cages, has received considerable attention for versatile applications because of their ability to interact with liquids and gases not only at the surface, but throughout the bulk. Herein we report a scalable, facile spray‐pyrolysis route to synthesize holey carbon microcages with mosquito‐net‐like shells. Using the surfaces of water droplets as the growth templates, styrene–butadiene rubber macromolecules are controllably cross‐linked, and size‐controllable holes on the carbon shells are generated. The as‐formed carbon microcages encapsulating Si nanoparticles exhibit enhanced lithium‐storage performances for lithium‐ion batteries. The scalable, inexpensive synthesis of porous carbon microcages with controlled porosity and the demonstration of outstanding electrochemical properties are expected to extend their uses in energy storage, molecular sieves, catalysis, adsorbents, water/air filters, and biomedical engineering.
Capillary-Induced Ge Uniformly Distributed in N-Doped Carbon Nanotubes with Enhanced Li-Storage Performance
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 30-05-2017
Abstract: Germanium (Ge) is a prospective anode material for lithium-ion batteries, as it possesses large theoretical capacity, outstanding lithium-ion diffusivity, and excellent electrical conductivity. Ge suffers from drastic capacity decay and poor rate performance, however, owing to its low electrical conductivity and huge volume expansion during cycling processes. Herein, a novel strategy has been developed to synthesize a Ge@N-doped carbon nanotubes (Ge@N-CNTs) composite with Ge nanoparticles uniformly distributed in the N-CNTs by using capillary action. This unique structure could effectively buffer large volume expansion. When evaluated as an anode material, the Ge@N-CNTs demonstrate enhanced cycling stability and excellent rate capabilities.

Hollow hematite nanosphere/carbon nanotube composite: mass production and its high-rate lithium storage properties
Publisher: IOP Publishing
Date: 17-05-2011
DOI: 10.1088/0957-4484/22/26/265401
Abstract: Spray pyrolysis was used to produce hollow hematite (α-Fe(2)O(3)) nanosphere (HHNS)/carbon nanotube (CNT) composite on a large scale. The method offers simplicity, high productivity, versatility, low cost, and suitability for industry. The structure is composed of hollow nanospheres in a network of CNTs. The possible formation mechanism of hollow α-Fe(2)O(3) nanospheres is due to the rapid evaporation of water and the super-hydrophobicity of the CNT surface. The electrochemical tests show that the HHNS/CNT composite is a promising lithium storage material in terms of high capacity (∼700 mAh g(-1)), good high-rate capability, and good cycle life (up to 150 cycles). The materials improve both lithium ion and electron transport, which are limiting factors on the high-rate capability of lithium-ion batteries. The production method can be easily adapted to produce a wide range of hollow metal oxide nanosphere/CNT composites.

Abstract: To study the influence of solid-state electrolyte coating layers on the performance of cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries in combination with organic liquid electrolyte, LiNbO3-coated Li1.08Mn1.92O4 cathode materials were synthesized by using a facile solid-state reaction method. The 0.06LiNbO3-0.97Li1.08Mn1.92O4 cathode exhibited an initial discharge capacity of 125 mAh g(-1), retaining a capacity of 119 mAh g(-1) at 25 °C, while at 55 °C, it exhibited an initial discharge capacity of 130 mAh g(-1), retaining a capacity of 111 mAh g(-1), both at a current density of 0.5 C (where 1 C is 148 mAh g(-1)). Very good rate capability was demonstrated, with the 0.06LiNbO3-0.97Li1.08Mn1.92O4 cathode showing more than 85% capacity at the rate of 50 C compared with the capacity at 0.5 C. The 0.06LiNbO3-0.97Li1.08Mn1.92O4 cathode showed a high lithium diffusion coefficient (1.6 × 10(-10) cm(2) s(-1) at 55 °C), and low apparent activation energy (36.9 kJ mol(-1)). The solid-state electrolyte coating layer is effective for preventing Mn dissolution and maintaining the high ionic conductivity between the electrode and the organic liquid electrolyte, which may improve the design and construction of next-generation large-scale lithium-ion batteries with high power and safety.

Abstract: We investigated the effect of SiC nanoparticle doping on the crystal lattice structure, critical temperature Tc, critical current density Jc, and flux pinning in MgB2 superconductor. A series of MgB2−x(SiC)x/2 s les with x=0–1.0 were fabricated using an in situ reaction process. The contraction of the lattice and depression of Tc with increasing SiC doping level remained rather small most likely due to the counterbalancing effect of Si and C co-doping. The high level Si and C co-doping allowed the creation of intragrain defects and highly dispersed nanoinclusions within the grains which can act as effective pinning centers for vortices, improving Jc behavior as a function of the applied magnetic field. The enhanced pinning is mainly attributable to the substitution-induced defects and local structure fluctuations within grains. A pinning mechanism is proposed to account for different contributions of different defects in MgB2−x(SiC)x/2 superconductors.

Abstract: To explore good anode materials of high safety, high reversible capacity, good cycling, and excellent rate capability, a Li3VO4 microbox with wall thickness of 40 nm was prepared by a one-pot and template-free in situ hydrothermal method. In addition, its composite with graphene nanosheets of about six layers of graphene was achieved. Both of them, especially the Li3VO4/graphene nanosheets composite, show superior electrochemical performance to the formerly reported vanadium-based anode materials. The composite shows a reversible capacity of 223 mAh g(-1) even at 20C (1C = 400 mAh g(-1)). After 500 cycles at 10C there is no evident capacity fading.

Ternary Porous Sulfur/Dual-Carbon Architectures for Lithium/Sulfur Batteries Obtained Continuously and on a Large Scale via an Industry-Oriented Spray-Pyrolysis/Sublimation Method
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 19-09-2016
Abstract: Ternary composites with porous sulfur/dual-carbon architectures have been synthesized by a single-step spray-pyrolysis/sublimation technique, which is an industry-oriented method that features continuous fabrication of products with highly developed porous structures without the need for any further treatments. A double suspension of commercial sulfur and carbon scaffolding particles was dispersed in ethanol/water solution and sprayed at 180 °C using a spray pyrolysis system. In the resultant composites, the sulfur particles were subjected to an ultrashort sublimation process, leading to the development of a highly porous surface, and were meanwhile coated with amorphous carbon, obtained through the pyrolysis of the ethanol, which acts as an adhesive interface to bind together the porous sulfur with the scaffolding carbon particles, to form a ternary composite architecture. This material has an effective conducting-carbon/sulfur-based matrix and interconnected open pores to reduce the diffusion paths of lithium ions, buffer the sulfur volumetric expansion, and absorb electrolyte and polysulfides. Because of the unique chemistry and the structure, the composites show stable cycling performance for 200 cycles and good rate capability of 520 mAh g(-1) at 2 C. This advanced spray-pyrolysis/sublimation method is easy to scale up and shows great potential for commercialization of lithium/sulfur batteries.

Abstract: Despite the high theoretical capacity of the sodium-sulfur battery, its application is seriously restrained by the challenges due to its low sulfur electroactivity and accelerated shuttle effect, which lead to low accessible capacity and fast decay. Herein, an elaborate carbon framework, interconnected mesoporous hollow carbon nanospheres, is reported as an effective sulfur host to achieve excellent electrochemical performance. Based on in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction, the mechanism of the room temperature Na/S battery is proposed to be reversible reactions between S

Abstract: The colossal magnetoresistive material, La0.7Ca0.3MnO3, which has the perovskite structure, has been investigated by means of a magneto-optical method. Analysis of the magnetic field distributions within such a material under applied perpendicular fields clearly showed that the s le was paramagnetic above the Curie transition temperature Tc and ferromagnetic below it. The field distributions were also studied as a function of decreasing temperature through Tc. The results show the microscopic magnetic transition process as the material changes magnetic phase.

Rietveld analysis of the effect of annealing atmosphere on phase evolution of nanocrystalline TiO 2 powders
Publisher: American Scientific Publishers
Date: 06-2012
Abstract: The structural evolution of nanocrystalline TiO2 was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the Rietveld refinement method (RRM). TiO2 powders were prepared by the sol-gel technique. Post annealing of as-synthesized powders in the temperature range from 500 degrees C to 800 degrees C under air and argon atmospheres led to the formation of TiO2 nanoparticles with mean crystallite size in the range of 37-165 nm, based on the Rietveld refinement results. It was found that the phase structure, composition, and crystallite size of the resulting particles were dependent on not only the annealing temperature, but also the annealing atmosphere. Rietveld refinement of the XRD data showed that annealing the powders under argon atmosphere promoted the polymorphic phase transformation from anatase to rutile. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) was employed to investigate the morphology and size of the annealed powders.

DOI: 10.1039/C1DT10396B
Abstract: A tin nanoparticle olypyrrole (nano-Sn/PPy) composite was prepared by chemically reducing and coating Sn nanoparticles onto the PPy surface. The composite shows a much higher surface area than the pure nano-Sn reference s le, due to the porous higher surface area of PPy and the much smaller size of Sn in the nano-Sn/PPy composite than in the pure tin nanoparticle s le. Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) were also used as binders, and the electrochemical performance was investigated. The electrochemical results show that both the capacity retention and the rate capability are in the same order of nano-Sn/PPy-CMC > nano-Sn/PPy-PVDF > nano-Sn-CMC > nano-Sn-PVDF. Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results show that CMC can prevent the formation of cracks in electrodes caused by the big volume changes during the charge-discharge process, and the PPy in the composite can provide a conducting matrix and alleviate the agglomeration of Sn nanoparticles. The present results indicate that the nano-Sn/PPy composite could be suitable for the next generation of anode materials with relatively good capacity retention and rate capability.

Enhanced sodium-ion battery performance by structural phase transition from two-dimensional hexagonal-SnS2 to orthorhombic-SnS
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 14-07-2014
DOI: 10.1021/NN503582C
Abstract: Structural phase transitions can be used to alter the properties of a material without adding any additional elements and are therefore of significant technological value. It was found that the hexagonal-SnS2 phase can be transformed into the orthorhombic-SnS phase after an annealing step in an argon atmosphere, and the thus transformed SnS shows enhanced sodium-ion storage performance over that of the SnS2, which is attributed to its structural advantages. Here, we provide the first report on a SnS@graphene architecture for application as a sodium-ion battery anode, which is built from two-dimensional SnS and graphene nanosheets as complementary building blocks. The as-prepared SnS@graphene hybrid nanostructured composite delivers an excellent specific capacity of 940 mAh g(-1)and impressive rate capability of 492 and 308 mAh g(-1) after 250 cycles at the current densities of 810 and 7290 mA g(-1), respectively. The performance was found to be much better than those of most reported anode materials for Na-ion batteries. On the basis of combined ex situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and ex situ X-ray diffraction, the formation mechanism of SnS@graphene and the synergistic Na-storage reactions of SnS in the anode are discussed in detail. The SnS experienced a two-structural-phase transformation mechanism (orthorhombic-SnS to cubic-Sn to orthorhombic-Na3.75Sn), while the SnS2 experienced a three-structural-phase transformation mechanism (hexagonal-SnS2 to tetragonal-Sn to orthorhombic-Na3.75Sn) during the sodiation process. The lesser structural changes of SnS during the conversion are expected to lead to good structural stability and excellent cycling stability in its sodium-ion battery performance. These results demonstrate that the SnS@graphene architecture offers unique characteristics suitable for high-performance energy storage application.

Abstract: Copper oxide-carbon composite with hollow sphere structure has been synthesized by a one-step spray pyrolysis method and tested as anode material for lithium-ion batteries. Different analytical methods, including X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, thermogravimetric analysis, and systematic electrochemical tests were performed. The results demonstrate that the CuO-carbon composite in conjunction with carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) binder has an excellent electrochemical performance, with a capacity of 577 mAh g(-1) up to 100 cycles. The usage of the water soluble binder, CMC, not only obviously improves the electrochemical performance, but also makes the electrode fabrication process much easier and more environmentally friendly.

Effect of Ca2CuO3 excess on superconducting properties in the Bi-Pb-Sr-Ca-Cu-O system
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 11-1991
Abstract: The effect of excess Ca 2 CuO 3 on the superconducting properties in the (Bi, Pb) 2 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O y , (2223) was investigated through the measurements of ac susceptibility, critical current density, and critical field. All the measurements have been performed on the s les that were identified by x-ray diffraction to consist of the mostly high T c 2223 phase with varying amounts of excess Ca 2 CuO 3 . It was found that when the excess Ca 2 CuO 3 is in the range 0.1 M to 0.3 M the loss peak of ac susceptibility appeared at higher temperature than that for an undoped s le, and the J c showed a maximum at the excess Ca 2 CuO 3 = 0.2 M, indicating that a proper amount of excess Ca 2 CuO 3 enhanced the flux pinning. The upper critical field, H c 2 , determined by using a pulse magnetic field showed a maximum at the excess Ca 2 CuO 3 = 0.1 M, and increased linearly with decreasing temperature within the measurement regime.
Tuning the band gap in silicene by oxidation
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 30-09-2014
DOI: 10.1021/NN504451T
Abstract: Silicene monolayers grown on Ag(111) surfaces demonstrate a band gap that is tunable by oxygen adatoms from semimetallic to semiconducting type. With the use of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy, we find that the adsorption configurations and amounts of oxygen adatoms on the silicene surface are critical for band gap engineering, which is dominated by different buckled structures in √13 × √13, 4 × 4, and 2√3 × 2√3 silicene layers. The Si-O-Si bonds are the most energy-favored species formed on √13 × √13, 4 × 4, and 2√3 × 2√3 structures under oxidation, which is verified by in situ Raman spectroscopy as well as first-principles calculations. The silicene monolayers retain their structures when fully covered by oxygen adatoms. Our work demonstrates the feasibility of tuning the band gap of silicene with oxygen adatoms, which, in turn, expands the base of available two-dimensional electronic materials for devices with properties that is hardly achieved with graphene oxide.
Dehydrogenation/rehydrogenation mechanism in aluminum destabilized lithium borohydride
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 08-2009
Abstract: LiBH 4 /Al mixtures with various mol ratios were prepared by ball milling. The hydrogen storage properties of the mixtures were evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry/thermogravimetry analyses coupled with mass spectrometry measurements. The phase compositions and chemical state of elements for the LiBH 4 /Al mixtures before and after hydrogen desorption and absorption reactions were assessed via powder x-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Dehydrogenation results revealed that LiBH 4 could react with Al to form AlB 2 and AlLi compounds with a two-step decomposition, resulting in improved dehydrogenation. The rehydrogenation experiments were investigated at 600 °C with various H 2 pressure. It was found that intermediate hydride was formed firstly at a low H 2 pressure of 30 atm, while LiBH 4 could be reformed completely after increasing the pressure to 100 atm. Absorption/desorption cycle results showed that the dehydrogenation temperature increased and the hydrogen capacity degraded with the increase of cycle numbers.

Flame spray-pyrolyzed vanadium oxide nanoparticles for lithium battery cathodes

DOI: 10.1039/B821389P
Abstract: Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) nanoparticles (30-60 nm) were made by a one-step and scalable flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) process. Optimization of the FSP processing conditions (precursor concentration and injection rate) enhanced the electrochemical performance of these nanoparticles. Increasing the cut-off potential for discharging from 1.5 to 2.5 V vs. Li/Li+ improved the cycle life of these V2O5 nanoparticles. Particles with the lowest specific surface area (approximately 32 m2 g(-1)) and highest phase purity (up to 98 wt%) showed excellent cyclability between 2.5 and 4.0 V vs. Li/Li+, retaining a specific charge of 110 mAh g(-1) beyond 100 cycles at a specific current of 100 mA g(-1), and also superior specific charge of 100 mAh g(-1) at specific current up to 20C rate (or 2000 mA g(-1)).

An All-Integrated Anode via Interlinked Chemical Bonding between Double-Shelled-Yolk-Structured Silicon and Binder for Lithium-Ion Batteries
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 12-10-2017
Abstract: The concept of an all-integrated design with multifunctionalization is widely employed in optoelectronic devices, sensors, resonator systems, and microfluidic devices, resulting in benefits for many ongoing research projects. Here, maintaining structural/electrode stability against large volume change by means of an all-integrated design is realized for silicon anodes. An all-integrated silicon anode is achieved via multicomponent interlinking among carbon@void@silica@silicon (CVSS) nanospheres and cross-linked carboxymethyl cellulose and citric acid polymer binder (c-CMC-CA). Due to the additional protection from the silica layer, CVSS is superior to the carbon@void@silicon (CVS) electrode in terms of long-term cyclability. The as-prepared all-integrated CVSS electrode exhibits high mechanical strength, which can be ascribed to the high adhesivity and ductility of c-CMC-CA binder and the strong binding energy between CVSS and c-CMC-CA, as calculated based on density functional theory (DFT). This electrode exhibits a high reversible capacity of 1640 mA h g

Hollow MnCo2O4 Submicrospheres with Multilevel Interiors: From Mesoporous Spheres to Yolk-in-Double-Shell Structures
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 19-12-2013
DOI: 10.1021/AM404841T
Abstract: We present a general strategy to synthesize uniform MnCo2O4 submicrospheres with various hollow structures. By using MnCo-glycolate submicrospheres as the precursor with proper manipulation of r ing rates during the heating process, we have fabricated hollow MnCo2O4 submicrospheres with multilevel interiors, including mesoporous spheres, hollow spheres, yolk-shell spheres, shell-in-shell spheres, and yolk-in-double-shell spheres. Interestingly, when tested as anode materials in lithium ion batteries, the MnCo2O4 submicrospheres with a yolk-shell structure showed the best performance among these multilevel interior structures because these structures can not only supply a high contact area but also maintain a stable structure.

Effect of Zn(OH)2 addition on the electrode properties of nickel hydroxide electrodes
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 05-1999
Abstract: Nickel hydroxide powders currently used in the positive electrode of nickel-metal hydride (Ni–MH) batteries require cobalt or cobalt oxides to make them viable and attractive. As a step to eliminate the cobalt-containing materials, spherical nickel hydroxide powders coprecipitated with Zn(OH) 2 were prepared by a spraying technique. These powders, which have a higher tapping density and a much smaller pore volume than conventional powders, were used as the active materials of nickel hydroxide electrodes. The effects of the Zn(OH) 2 additions on the electrode properties, such as percentage utilization and cycle life, were studied, and the relationship between the electrode performance and the formation of γ–NiOOH was investigated. The cycle life was increased because there was less electrode swelling due to much reduced formation of γ–NiOOH.

Simply Mixed Commercial Red Phosphorus and Carbon Nanotube Composite with Exceptionally Reversible Sodium-Ion Storage
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 30-10-2013
DOI: 10.1021/NL403053V
Abstract: Recently, sodium ion batteries (SIBs) have been given intense attention because they are the most promising alternative to lithium ion batteries for application in renewable power stations and smart grid, owing to their low cost, their abundant natural resources, and the similar chemistry of sodium and lithium. Elemental phosphorus (P) is the most promising anode materials for SIBs with the highest theoretical capacity of 2596 mA h g(-1), but the commercially available red phosphorus cannot react with Na reversibly. Here, we report that simply hand-grinding commercial microsized red phosphorus and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can deliver a reversible capacity of 1675 mA h g(-1) for sodium ion batteries (SIBs), with capacity retention of 76.6% over 10 cycles. Our results suggest that the simply mixed commercial red phosphorus and CNTs would be a promising anode candidate for SIBs with a high capacity and low cost.

Equilibrium phase diagrams in the system CuO-PbO-Ag
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 11-1995
Abstract: Silver has played a critical role for the fabrication of metal/high temperature superconductor composites. Phase equilibrium and microstructure in the ternary PbO-CuO-Ag system have been investigated using differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry (TG), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and x-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. Composition versus temperature diagrams have been established for these systems in air. In the ternary CuO-PbO-Ag system, there is a eutectic reaction CuO + PbO + Ag = L at 750 °C and a composition of 12.04 mol % Ag, 16.35 mol % CuO, and 72.62 mol % PbO. Two immiscible regions near the two binary tie lines PbO-Ag and CuO-Ag were detected. No binary or ternary compound was detected in these systems. SEM and EDS results confirm the presence of two liquid phases and the eutectic point

Boron-Doped Anatase TiO2 as a High-Performance Anode Material for Sodium-Ion Batteries
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 14-06-2016
Abstract: Pristine and boron-doped anatase TiO2 were prepared via a facile sol-gel method and the hydrothermal method for application as anode materials in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). The sol-gel method leads to agglomerated TiO2, whereas the hydrothermal method is conducive to the formation of highly crystalline and discrete nanoparticles. The structure, morphology, and electrochemical properties were studied. The crystal size of TiO2 with boron doping is smaller than that of the nondoped crystals, which indicates that the addition of boron can inhibit the crystal growth. The electrochemical measurements demonstrated that the reversible capacity of the B-doped TiO2 is higher than that for the pristine s le. B-doping also effectively enhances the rate performance. The capacity of the B-doped TiO2 could reach 150 mAh/g at the high current rate of 2C and the capacity decay is only about 8 mAh/g over 400 cycles. The remarkable performance could be attributed to the lattice expansion resulting from B doping and the shortened Li(+) diffusion distance due to the nanosize. These results indicate that B-doped TiO2 can be a good candidate for SIBs.

Phase evolution in silver-doped BiPbSrCaCuO(2223)/Ag superconducting composites
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 09-1993
Abstract: Silver doping into (Bi, Pb) 2 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 10 superconducting composite tapes was found to accelerate the formation process of high- T c (2223) phase owing to lowering the partial melting point of the s les. The differential thermal analysis (DTA) results showed that the partial melting temperature of the s le was lowered by about 10 °C from 850 °C to 840 °C by silver doping. However, with sufficient sintering both the silver-doped and undoped s les can reach a very high level of high- T c phase fraction, suggesting that the silver doping only speeds up the rate of high- T c phase formation, but does not change the final phase assemblage of the materials. The reaction kinetics was analyzed by using the Avrami equation, and the results indicated that the conversion process of low- T c (2212) phase to high- T c (2223) phase was a diffusion-controlled, two-dimensional reaction. The correlation of the phase evolution with electrical property inside the superconducting tape during the process of heat treatment was also discussed.

Publisher: AIP Publishing

DOI: 10.1063/1.1851877
Abstract: Y Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7 films were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition on SrTiO3 (100) single-crystal substrates whose surfaces were modified by the introduction of Ag nanodots. The critical current density (Jc) was found to increase with the number of Ag shots. Zero-field magnetic Jc0 at 77K increased from 8×105 up to 3.5×106A∕cm2 as the number of Ag shots increased from 0 to over 150 times. Microstructure investigations indicated that the crystallinity and the ab alignment gradually improved as the number of Ag nanodots increased. Thermally activated depinning of in idual vortices is suggested responsible for a field-independent Jc plateau.

Abstract: Developing nano/micro-structures which can effectively upgrade the intriguing properties of electrode materials for energy storage devices is always a key research topic. Ultrathin nanosheets were proved to be one of the potential nanostructures due to their high specific surface area, good active contact areas and porous channels. Herein, we report a unique hierarchical micro-spherical morphology of well-stacked and completely miscible molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) nanosheets and graphene sheets, were successfully synthesized via a simple and industrial scale spray-drying technique to take the advantages of both MoS 2 and graphene in terms of their high practical capacity values and high electronic conductivity, respectively. Computational studies were performed to understand the interfacial behaviour of MoS 2 and graphene, which proves high stability of the composite with high interfacial binding energy (−2.02 eV) among them. Further, the lithium and sodium storage properties have been tested and reveal excellent cyclic stability over 250 and 500 cycles, respectively, with the highest initial capacity values of 1300 mAh g −1 and 640 mAh g −1 at 0.1 A g −1 .

Abstract: Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) papers were successfully prepared by dispersing SWNTs in Triton X-100 solution, then filtered by PVDF membrane (0.22 μ m pore size). The electrochemical behavior and the reversible hydrogen storage capacity of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) papers have been investigated in alkaline electrolytic solutions (6 N KOH) by cyclic voltammetry, linear micropolarization, and constant current charge/discharge measurements. The effect of thickness and the addition of carbon black on hydrogen adsorption/desorption were also investigated. It was found that the electrochemical charge–discharge mechanism occurring in SWNT paper electrodes is somewhere between that of carbon nanotubes (physical process) and that of metal hydride electrodes (chemical process), and consists of a charge-transfer reaction (Reduction/Oxidation) and a diffusion step (Diffusion).

Third harmonics due to surface barrier in high-temperature superconductor
Publisher: AIP Publishing
Date: 02-05-2005
DOI: 10.1063/1.1851413
Abstract: The influence of surface barrier on the third harmonics ac susceptibility (χ3) is studied numerically. The surface barrier is described by a critical current density in surfaces which are higher than the inside one. The model can act as the critical state one, the flux creep one, or the flux flow one when temperature (or field) changes. The numerical results based on the model are more close to the popular experimental data probing the harmonics as a function of temperature (or field). Besides, the surface barrier will lead to new peaks in the real and imaginary parts of the third harmonics, which are the finger signature of the surface barrier. Comparison of the peaks with those of the real part of elemental harmonic shows that they are located at the same temperature where dips in χ′ caused by the surface barrier occur, which is in well agreement with experiments.

Large low-field magnetoresistance over a wide temperature range induced by weak-link grain boundaries in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3
Publisher: AIP Publishing
Date: 20-07-1998
DOI: 10.1063/1.121846
Abstract: Polycrystalline bulk porous s les with a large number of weak-link grain boundaries and high density polycrystalline bulk s les with strong-link boundaries were synthesized by conventional solid-state reaction and a partial melting technique. The weak-link s les showed large magnetoresistance (MR,Δρ/ρH=[ρ0−ρH]/ρ0), 20–30%, at a low magnetic field of 300 mT and over a wide temperature range from the magnetic transition at 235 to 77 K. The partially melted s les exhibited the same magnetoresistance behavior as that of single crystals with a maximum peak MR of 15% at a narrow temperature range around the ferromagnetic transition. It is suggested that grain boundaries are necessary but not sufficient to account for the MR at low field over a large temperature range. Weak-link grain boundaries rather than strong-link boundaries are responsible for the MR at low field over a large temperature range.

CuS nanoflakes, microspheres, microflowers, and nanowires: Synthesis and lithium storage properties
Publisher: American Scientific Publishers
Date: 02-2013
Abstract: CuS nanostructured materials, including nanoflakes, microspheres composed of nanoflakes, microflowers, and nanowires have been selectively synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method using CuSO4 and thiourea as precursors under different conditions. The morphology of CuS particles were affected by the following synthetic parameters: temperature, time, surfactant, pH value, solvent, and concentration of the two precursors. The synthesized CuS nanomaterials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller N2 adsorption, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The electrochemical tests, including constant current charge-discharge and cyclic voltammetry, show the specific capacities of the different morphologies, as well as their rate capability. The nanowire electrode has near theoretical specific capacity and the best rate capability.

Boric Acid Assisted Reduction of Graphene Oxide: A Promising Material for Sodium-Ion Batteries
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 13-07-2016
Abstract: Reduced graphene oxide, an intensively investigated material for Li-ion batteries, has shown mostly unsatisfactory performance in Na-ion batteries, since its d-spacing is believed to be too small for effective insertion/deinsertion of Na(+) ions. Herein, a facile method was developed to produce boron-functionalized reduced graphene oxide (BF-rGO), with an enlarged interlayer spacing and defect-rich structure, which effectively accommodates the sodiation/desodiation and provides more active sites. The Na/BF-rGO half cells exhibit unprecedented long cycling stability, with ∼89.4% capacity retained after 5000 cycles (0.002% capacity decay per cycle) at 1000 mA·g(-1) current density. High specific capacity (280 mAh·g(-1)) and great rate capability were also delivered in the Na/BF-rGO half cells.
Amminelithium Amidoborane Li(NH3)NH2BH3: A New Coordination Compound with Favorable Dehydrogenation Characteristics
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 16-03-2010
Abstract: The monoammoniate of lithium amidoborane, Li(NH(3))NH(2)BH(3), was synthesized by treatment of LiNH(2)BH(3) with ammonia at room temperature. This compound exists in the amorphous state at room temperature, but at -20 degrees C crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with lattice parameters of a = 9.711(4), b = 8.7027(5), c = 7.1999(1) A, and V = 608.51 A(3). The thermal decomposition behavior of this compound under argon and under ammonia was investigated. Through a series of experiments we have demonstrated that Li(NH(3))NH(2)BH(3) is able to absorb/desorb ammonia reversibly at room temperature. In the temperature range of 40-70 degrees C, this compound showed favorable dehydrogenation characteristics. Specifically, under ammonia this material was able to release 3.0 equiv hydrogen (11.18 wt %) rapidly at 60 degrees C, which represents a significant advantage over LiNH(2)BH(3). It has been found that the formation of the coordination bond between ammonia and Li(+) in LiNH(2)BH(3) plays a crucial role in promoting the combination of hydridic B-H bonds and protic N-H bonds, leading to dehydrogenation at low temperature.

Structure-Property Relationships of Organic Electrolytes and Their Effects on Li/S Battery Performance.
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 16-06-2017
Abstract: Electrolytes, which are a key component in electrochemical devices, transport ions between the sulfur/carbon composite cathode and the lithium anode in lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs). The performance of a LSB mostly depends on the electrolyte due to the dissolution of polysulfides into the electrolyte, along with the formation of a solid-electrolyte interphase. The selection of the electrolyte and its functionality during charging and discharging is intricate and involves multiple reactions and processes. The selection of the proper electrolyte, including solvents and salts, for LSBs strongly depends on its physical and chemical properties, which is heavily controlled by its molecular structure. In this review, the fundamental properties of organic electrolytes for LSBs are presented, and an attempt is made to determine the relationship between the molecular structure and the properties of common organic electrolytes, along with their effects on the LSB performance.

Self-Assembling Hollow Carbon Nanobeads into Double-Shell Microspheres as a Hierarchical Sulfur Host for Sustainable Room-Temperature Sodium–Sulfur Batteries
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 15-05-2018
Abstract: We report the use of passion fruit-like double-carbon-shell porous carbon microspheres (PCMs) as the sulfur substrate in room-temperature sodium-sulfur batteries. The PCMs are covered by microsized carbon shells on the outside and consisted of carbon nanobeads with hollow structure inside, leading to a unique multidimensional scaling double-carbon-shell structure with high electronic conductivity and strengthened mechanical properties. Sulfur is filled inside the PCMs (PCMs-S) and protected by the unique double-carbon-shell, which means the subsequently generated intermediate sodium polysulfide species cannot be exposed to the electrolyte directly and well protected inside. In addition, the inner interconnected porous structure provides room for the volume expansion of sulfur during discharge processes. It is found that the PCMs-S with a 63.6% initial Coulombic efficiency contributed to the 290 mA h g

Sulfur-graphene nanostructured cathodes via ball-milling for high-performance lithium-sulfur batteries
Publisher: American Chemical Society (ACS)
Date: 13-10-2014
DOI: 10.1021/NN5047585
Abstract: Although much progress has been made to develop high-performance lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs), the reported physical or chemical routes to sulfur cathode materials are often multistep/complex and even involve environmentally hazardous reagents, and hence are infeasible for mass production. Here, we report a simple ball-milling technique to combine both the physical and chemical routes into a one-step process for low-cost, scalable, and eco-friendly production of graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) edge-functionalized with sulfur (S-GnPs) as highly efficient LSB cathode materials of practical significance. LSBs based on the S-GnP cathode materials, produced by ball-milling 70 wt % sulfur and 30 wt % graphite, delivered a high initial reversible capacity of 1265.3 mAh g(-1) at 0.1 C in the voltage range of 1.5-3.0 V with an excellent rate capability, followed by a high reversible capacity of 966.1 mAh g(-1) at 2 C with a low capacity decay rate of 0.099% per cycle over 500 cycles, outperformed the current state-of-the-art cathode materials for LSBs. The observed excellent electrochemical performance can be attributed to a 3D "sandwich-like" structure of S-GnPs with an enhanced ionic conductivity and lithium insertion/extraction capacity during the discharge-charge process. Furthermore, a low-cost porous carbon paper pyrolyzed from common filter paper was inserted between the 0.7S-0.3GnP electrode and porous polypropylene film separator to reduce/eliminate the dissolution of physically adsorbed polysulfide into the electrolyte and subsequent cross-deposition on the anode, leading to further improved capacity and cycling stability.

DOI: 10.1063/1.1492856
Abstract: The growth mechanism of the Bi-2223 phase was studied using multifilamentary Ag/Bi-2223 tapes manufactured by the powder-in-tube method. X-ray powder diffraction was performed to analyze the developments of Bi-2201, Bi-2212, and Bi-2223 phases during sintering periods at high temperatures. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to investigate the growth mechanism of the 2223 phase. TEM images indicated that 2201 and Ca2CuO3 crystals come together to form platelets of 2223. The structural phase transformation established a structural frame of the 2223 crystal. There were some vacant defects retaining in the established 2223 crystal cells at copper and oxygen sites after the phase transformation, and the Cu/O compound at high temperatures would diffuse into 2223 cells and occupy the corresponding vacancies to complete the 2223 crystal structure. The present work provides an evidence for growing the 2223 phase from the 2201 phase and Ca2CuO3 in the s les studied.
