Tuning the Properties of Halide Nanocomposite Solid Electrolytes with Diverse Oxides for All-Solid-State Batteries.

Herein, we report halide nanocomposite solid electrolytes (HNSEs) that integrate diverse oxides with alterations that allow tuning of their ionic conductivity, (electro)chemical stability, and specific density. A two-step mechanochemical process enabled the synthesis of multimetal (or nonmetal) HNSEs, MO-2LiZrCl, as verified by pair distribution function and X-ray diffraction analyses. The multimetal (or nonmetal) HNSE strategy increases the ionic conductivity of LiZrCl from 0.

Boosting the interfacial superionic conduction of halide solid electrolytes for all-solid-state batteries.

Designing highly conductive and (electro)chemical stable inorganic solid electrolytes using cost-effective materials is crucial for developing all-solid-state batteries. Here, we report halide nanocomposite solid electrolytes (HNSEs) ZrO(-ACl)-AZrCl (A = Li or Na) that demonstrate improved ionic conductivities at 30 °C, from 0.40 to 1.

Tailoring Solution-Processable Li Argyrodites LiPMSI (M = Ge, Sn) and Their Microstructural Evolution Revealed by Cryo-TEM for All-Solid-State Batteries.

Owing to their high Li conductivities, mechanical sinterability, and solution processability, sulfide Li argyrodites have attracted much attention as enablers in the development of high-performance all-solid-state batteries with practicability. However, solution-processable Li argyrodites have been developed only for a composition of LiPSX (X = Cl, Br, I) with insufficiently high Li conductivities (∼10 S cm). Herein, we report the highest Li conductivity of 0.
