Book Solid State Batteries  Materials Design and Optimization

Download or read book Solid State Batteries Materials Design and Optimization written by Christian Julien and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of solid state ionics is multidisciplinary in nature. Chemists, physicists, electrochimists, and engineers all are involved in the research and development of materials, techniques, and theoretical approaches. This science is one of the great triumphs of the second part of the 20th century. For nearly a century, development of materials for solid-state ionic technology has been restricted. During the last two decades there have been remarkable advances: more materials were discovered, modem technologies were used for characterization and optimization of ionic conduction in solids, trial and error approaches were deserted for defined predictions. During the same period fundamental theories for ion conduction in solids appeared. The large explosion of solid-state ionic material science may be considered to be due to two other influences. The first aspect is related to economy and connected with energy production, storage, and utilization. There are basic problems in industrialized countries from the economical, environmental, political, and technological points of view. The possibility of storing a large amount of utilizable energy in a comparatively small volume would make a number of non-conventional intermittent energy sources of practical convenience and cost. The second aspect is related to huge increase in international relationships between researchers and exchanges of results make considerable progress between scientists; one find many institutes joined in common search programs such as the material science networks organized by EEC in the European countries.

Book High Accuracy Computational Methods for Lithium Ion Battery Materials

Download or read book High Accuracy Computational Methods for Lithium Ion Battery Materials written by Eric Richard Fadel and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ongoing research to improve the performance of Lithium-ion batteries has required the study of increasingly complex physical and chemical phenomena. In this context, the use of computational tools to quantitatively assess these phenomena has proven crucial for advancing the Lithium-ion battery technology. However, recent areas of research, ranging from studying the di↵diffusion of Lithium ions across solid polymer or ionic salt electrolytes, to the calculation of the voltage curve and discharge rate for complex transition metal oxide electrodes, has pushed Lithium-ion battery research beyond the framework of common computational methods, compromising the accuracy of these tools. Thus, there is an increasing need to use more accurate computational tools, or develop new ones, that could still be used in practice to design battery materials. This project presents how more accurate methods can be used to compute voltage curves for Lithium-ion cathode materials, determine the voltage stability of organic electrolyte, or predict the conductivity of di↵different electrolyte materials. The motivation for the use of higher accuracy methods is emphasized for each application by showing the limitations of commonly used methods. In particular, the achieved accuracy enables an enhanced understanding of the specific, complex physical and chemical phenomena at the heart of Lithium-ion battery limitations, which is crucial to the design of better battery materials.

Book Computational Design of Novel Electrodes for Alkali ion Batteries

Download or read book Computational Design of Novel Electrodes for Alkali ion Batteries written by Xingyu Guo and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alkali-ion batteries are the key to unlock the bottleneck of the renewable energy storage and pave the way for a renewable-powered future. Battery technologies for grid-scale energy storage systems requires low costs, safety, high efficiency and high sustainability. In this dissertation, we present not only in-depth understandings of the electrode working mechanism but also develop novel cathode materials for alkali-ion batteries using first principles calculations. We divide the dissertation into four project-based parts. In the first project, we performed a comprehensive study of Prussian blue and its analogues (PBAs) cathodes in aqueous sodium-ion batteries. Using density functional theory calculations, we proposed a general rule of the phase transition that dry PBAs generally undergo a phase transition from a rhombohedral Na2PR(CN)6 (where P and R are transition metals) to a tetragonal/cubic PR(CN)6 during Na extraction, which is in line with experimental observations. Using a grand potential phase diagram construction, we show that existence of lattice water and Na co-intercalation contribute to both higher energy density and better cycling stability. We also identified four new PBA compositions {Na2CoMn(CN)6, Na2NiMn(CN)6, Na2CuMn(CN)6 and Na2ZnMn(CN)6--that show great promise as cathodes for aqueous rechargeable Na-ion batteries. In the second project, we developed design rules for aqueous sodium-ion battery cathodes through a comprehensive density functional theory study of the working potential and aqueous stability of known cathode materials. These design rules were applied in a high-throughput screening of Na-ion battery cathode materials for application in aqueous electrolytes. Five promising cathode materials--NASICON-Na3Fe2(PO4)3, Na2FePO4F, Na3FeCO3PO4, alluadite-Na2Fe3(PO4)3 and Na3MnCO3PO4, were identified as hitherto unexplored aqueous sodium-ion battery cathodes, with high voltage, good capacity, high stability in aqueous environments and facile Na-ion migration. These findings pave the way the practical cathode development for large-scale energy storage systems based on aqueous Na-ion battery chemistry. Then in the third project, we constructed a large database of aqueous Na-ion battery cathodes (Na-ion Aqueous Electrode Database, or NAED) based on the developed design rules in the second project. By screening and analyze the data in the database, we identified two promising candidates, NaMn2O4 and Na2(FeVO4)3 for synthesis and experimentation in aqueous sodium-ion batteries. The final project presents a comprehensive study of Li insertion mechanism in DRX-Li3V2O5 anode in Li-ion batteries. Using a combination of first-principles calculations, cluster expansion and machine learning methods, we show that during discharge, Li ions mainly intercalate into tetrahedral sites, while the majority of Li and V ions in octahedral sites remain stable. Furthermore, its fast-charging nature is attributed to the facile diffusivity of Li ions via a correlated "octahedral-tetrahedral-octahedral" Li diffusion.

Book New Paradigms in Flow Battery Modelling

Download or read book New Paradigms in Flow Battery Modelling written by Akeel A. Shah and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-08-28 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive review of the latest modelling developments in flow batteries, as well as some new results and insights. Flow batteries have long been considered the most flexible answer to grid scale energy storage, and modelling is a key component in their development. Recent modelling has moved beyond macroscopic methods, towards mesoscopic and smaller scales to select materials and design components. This is important for both fundamental understanding and the design of new electrode, catalyst and electrolyte materials. There has also been a recent explosion in interest in machine learning for electrochemical energy technologies. The scope of the book includes these latest developments and is focused on advanced techniques, rather than traditional modelling paradigms. The aim of this book is to introduce these concepts and methods to flow battery researcher, but the book would have a much broader appeal since these methods also employed in other battery and fuel cell systems and far beyond. The methods will be described in detail (necessary fundamental material in Appendices). The book appeals to graduate students and researchers in academia/industry working in electrochemical systems, or those working in computational chemistry/machine learning wishing to seek new application areas.

About EIBC Books The Encyclopedia of Inorganic and Bioinorganic Chemistry (EIBC) was created as an online reference in 2012 by merging the Encyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry and the Handbook of Metalloproteins. The resulting combination proves to be the defining reference work in the field of inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry, and a lot of chemistry libraries around the world have access to the online version. Many readers, however, prefer to have more concise thematic volumes in print, targeted to their specific area of interest. This feedback from EIBC readers has encouraged the Editors to plan a series of EIBC Books [formerly called EIC Books], focusing on topics of current interest. EIBC Books will appear on a regular basis, will be edited by the EIBC Editors and specialist Guest Editors, and will feature articles from leading scholars in their fields. EIBC Books aim to provide both the starting research student and the confirmed research worker with a critical distillation of the leading concepts in inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry, and provide a structured entry into the fields covered.
