AbstractIn 1992, Bellcore researchers demonstrated the feasibility of a liquidelectrolyte Li-ion system based on the Li1 + xMn2O4/C redox couple which presents cost and environmental advantages over the LiCoO2/C system. However, neither of these systems are free of the risk of electrolyte leakage. To address this problem, we investigated various means of trapping the liquid electrolyte in a polymer matrix and developed the first practical plastic Li-ion battery. In this paper we compare the performance and scaleability of this technology to those of its liquid Li-ion counterpart. Based on the “hybrid polymer” concept, this battery exhibits excellent cycle life (more than 2500 cycles) and good rate capabilities (the battery can deliver 95% of its total capacity at a 1C discharge rate). This technology is compatible with various positive (LiMn2O4, LiCoO2 and LiNiO2) and negative (carbon, graphite) electrode materials.

The development of next generation Li ion battery has attracted many attentions of researchers due to the rapidly increasing demands to portable energy storage devices. General Li metal/alloy anodes are confronted with challenges of dendritic crystal formation and slow charge/discharge rate. Recently, the prosperity of two-dimensional materials opens a new window for the design of battery anode. In the present study, MoS2/graphene heterostructure is investigate for the anode application of Li ion battery using first-principles calculations. The Li binding energy, open-circuit voltage, and electronic band structures are acquired for various Li concentrations. We found the open-circuit voltage decreases from ~2.28 to ~0.4 V for concentration from 0 to 1. Density of states show the electrical conductivity of the intercalated heterostructures can be significantly enhanced. The charge density differences are used to explain the variations of voltage and density of states. Last, ~0.43 eV diffusion energy barrier of Li implies the possible fast charge/discharge rate. Our study indicate MoS2/graphene heterostructure is promising material as Li ion battery anode.

On The Road

Over the past several decades, the number of electric vehicles (EVs) has continued to increase. Projections estimate that worldwide, more than 125 million EVs will be on the road by 2030. At the heart of these advanced vehicles is the lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery which provides the required energy storage. This paper presents and compares key components of Li-ion batteries and describes associated battery management systems, as well as approaches to improve the overall battery efficiency, capacity, and lifespan. Material and thermal characteristics are identified as critical to battery performance. The positive and negative electrode materials, electrolytes and the physical implementation of Li-ion batteries are discussed. In addition, current research on novel high energy density batteries is presented, as well as opportunities to repurpose and recycle the batteries.

In this work, we have explored the potential applications of pure and various doped Mg(AlH4)2 as Li-ion battery conversion electrode materials using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Through the comparisons of the electrochemical specific capacity, the volume change, the average voltage, and the electronic bandgap, the Li-doped material is found to have a smaller bandgap and lower average voltage than the pure system. The theoretical specific capacity of the Li-doped material is 2547.64 mAhg−1 with a volume change of 3.76% involving the electrode conversion reaction. The underlying reason for property improvement has been analyzed by calculating the electronic structures. The strong hybridization between Lis-state with H s-state influences the performance of the doped material. This theoretical research is proposed to help the design and modification of better light-metal hydride materials for Li-ion battery conversion electrode applications.
