A novel lithium copper iron phosphate with idealized formula Li(5)Cu(2)Fe(PO(4))(4): crystal structure and distribution of defects.

ABSTRACT: Gray-green single crystals were obtained under high-pressure, high-temperature hydro-thermal conditions. A refinement of atom occupancies gave the composition Li(3.68)Cu(2+)Fe(3+)(Cu(0.55)Li(0.45))(2)Fe(2+) (0.15)(PO(4))(4). The structure is built from triplets of edge-sharing (Cu,Li)O(5)-FeO(6)-(Cu,Li)O(5) polyhedra, CuO(4) quadrilaterals and PO(4) tetra-hedra. In the (Cu,Li)O(5) polyhedra the Cu and Li positions are statistically occupied in a 0.551?(2):0.449?(2) ratio. Both FeO(6) and CuO(4) polyhedra exhibit [Formula: see text] symmetry. The positions of additional Li atoms with vacancy defects are in the inter-stices of the framework.

Defects, Dopants and Lithium Mobility in Li 9 V 3 (P 2 O 7 ) 3 (PO 4 ) 2.

Project description:Layered Li9V3(P2O7)3(PO4)2 has attracted considerable interest as a novel cathode material for potential use in rechargeable lithium batteries. The defect chemistry, doping behavior and lithium diffusion paths in Li9V3(P2O7)3(PO4)2 are investigated using atomistic scale simulations. Here we show that the activation energy for Li migration via the vacancy mechanism is 0.72?eV along the c-axis. Additionally, the most favourable intrinsic defect type is Li Frenkel (0.44?eV/defect) ensuring the formation of Li vacancies that are required for Li diffusion via the vacancy mechanism. The only other intrinsic defect mechanism that is close in energy is the formation of anti-site defect, in which Li and V ions exchange their positions (1.02?eV/defect) and this can play a role at higher temperatures. Considering the solution of tetravalent dopants it is calculated that they require considerable solution energies, however, the solution of GeO2 will reduce the activation energy of migration to 0.66?eV.

Dicobalt copper bis-[orthophosphate(V)] monohydrate, Co(2.39)Cu(0.61)(PO(4))(2)·H(2)O.

Project description:In an attempt to hydro-thermally synthesize a phase with composition Co(2)Cu(PO(4))(2)·H(2)O, we obtained the title compound, Co(2.39)Cu(0.61)(PO(4))(2)·H(2)O instead. Chemical analysis confirmed the presence of copper in the crystal. The crystal structure of the title compound can be described as a three- dimensional network constructed from the stacking of two types of layers extending parallel to (010). These layers are made up from more or less deformed polyhedra: CoO(6) octa-hedra, (Cu/Co)O(5) square pyramids and PO(4) tetra-hedra. The first layer is formed by pairs of edge-sharing (Cu/Co)O(5) square pyramids linked via a common edge of each end of the (Cu/Co)(2)O(8) dimer to PO(4) tetra-hedra. The second layer is undulating and is built up from edge-sharing CoO(6) octa-hedra. The linkage between the two layers is accomplished by PO(4) tetra-hedra. The presence of water mol-ecules in the CoO(4)(H(2)O)(2) octa-hedron also contributes to the cohesion of the layers through O-H?O hydrogen bonding.

Synthetic Fe/Cu Complexes: Toward Understanding Heme-Copper Oxidase Structure and Function.

Project description:Heme-copper oxidases (HCOs) are terminal enzymes on the mitochondrial or bacterial respiratory electron transport chain, which utilize a unique heterobinuclear active site to catalyze the 4H+/4e- reduction of dioxygen to water. This process involves a proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from a tyrosine (phenolic) residue and additional redox events coupled to transmembrane proton pumping and ATP synthesis. Given that HCOs are large, complex, membrane-bound enzymes, bioinspired synthetic model chemistry is a promising approach to better understand heme-Cu-mediated dioxygen reduction, including the details of proton and electron movements. This review encompasses important aspects of heme-O2 and copper-O2 (bio)chemistries as they relate to the design and interpretation of small molecule model systems and provides perspectives from fundamental coordination chemistry, which can be applied to the understanding of HCO activity. We focus on recent advancements from studies of heme-Cu models, evaluating experimental and computational results, which highlight important fundamental structure-function relationships. Finally, we provide an outlook for future potential contributions from synthetic inorganic chemistry and discuss their implications with relevance to biological O2-reduction.

The mixed-valent titanium phosphate, Li(2)Ti(2)(PO(4))(3), dilithium dititanium(III/IV) tris-(orthophosphate).

Project description:The mixed-valent titanium phosphate, Li(2)Ti(2)(PO(4))(3), has been prepared by the reactive halide flux method. The title compound is isostructural with Li(2)TiM(PO(4))(3) (M = Fe, Cr) and Li(2)FeZr(PO(4))(3) and has the same (3) (∞)[Ti(2)(PO(4))(3)](2-) framework as the previously reported Li(3-) (x)M(2)(PO(4))(3) phases. The framework is built up from corner-sharing TiO(6) octa-hedra and PO(4) tetra-hedra, one of which has 2 symmetry. The Li(+) ions are located on one crystallographic position and reside in the vacancies of the framework. They are surrounded by four O atoms in a distorted tetra-hedral coordination. The classical charge-balance of the title compound can be represented as Li(+) (2)(Ti(3+)/Ti(4+))(PO(4) (3-))(3).

Facilitating Lithium-Ion Diffusion in Layered Cathode Materials by Introducing Li+/Ni2+ Antisite Defects for High-Rate Li-Ion Batteries.

Project description:Li+/Ni2+ antisite defects mainly resulting from their similar ionic radii in the layered nickel-rich cathode materials belong to one of cation disordering scenarios. They are commonly considered harmful to the electrochemical properties, so a minimum degree of cation disordering is usually desired. However, this study indicates that LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 as the key material for Tesla batteries possesses the highest rate capability when there is a minor degree (2.3%) of Li+/Ni2+ antisite defects existing in its layered structure. By combining a theoretical calculation, the improvement mechanism is attributed to two effects to decrease the activation barrier for lithium migration: (1) the anchoring of a low fraction of high-valence Ni2+ ions in the Li slab pushes uphill the nearest Li+ ions and (2) the same fraction of low-valence Li+ ions in the Ni slab weakens the repulsive interaction to the Li+ ions at the saddle point.

Project description:The solid solution, sodium [iron(III)/manganese(II)] tris-(orthophosphate), Na₃.₄Mn₀.₄Fe₁.₆(PO₄)₃, was obtained using a flux method. Its crystal structure is related to that of NASICON-type compounds. The [(Mn/Fe)₂(PO₄)₃] framework is built up from an (Mn/Fe)O₆octa-hedron (site symmetry 3.), with a mixed Mn/Fe occupancy, and a PO₄ tetra-hedron (site symmetry .2). The Na⁺ cations are distributed over two partially occupied sites in the cavities of the framework. One Na⁺ cation (site symmetry -3.) is surrounded by six O atoms, whereas the other Na⁺ cation (site symmetry .2) is surrounded by eight O atoms.

Properties of -O-Cu-O- Bridged Copper Phosphate-Based Thermal Insulation Materials.

Project description:P-O-H polycondensation -O-Cu-O- ion-bonded bridges were formed in copper phosphate thermal insulation materials by mixing Al(OH)3 dissolved in H3PO4 with CuO filler and Al2O3, SiC, ZrC, and Cr2O3 as curing accelerators, alone or in combination. The effects of different additive combinations on the curing behavior and thermal stability of the copper phosphate thermal insulation material matrixes were compared using thermogravimetry/differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffractometry, and scanning electron microscopy. The copper phosphate materials exhibit good thermal stabilities and low thermal conductivities. The thermal weight losses before and after ceramic reinforcement were 4-19.8 and 3.8-9.4%, respectively, and the thermal conductivities of the P-O-H polycondensation -O-Cu-O- ion-bonded bridges formed in the copper phosphate thermal insulation materials were in the range of 0.656-1.824 W/(m·K).

In Situ Li3PO4/PVA Solid Polymer Electrolyte Protective Layer Stabilizes the Lithium Metal Anode.

Project description:A lithium metal anode is regarded as the most promising anode material for the next generation of high-energy density batteries because of its high specific capacity and low reduction potential. However, dendritic deposition and severe side reactions in continuous Li plating/stripping inevitably hinder the practical application of Li metal batteries. A solid polymer electrolyte protective layer with synergistic Li3PO4/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) features is in situ constructed on a lithium metal anode to obtain a stable interface during charge/discharge cycles. The protective layer can adapt to volume changes and inhibit lithium dendrites. The in situ reaction guaranteed the uniformity of ion transport and a tight interface between the protective layer and the lithium metal, so that the lithium deposition behavior was effectively regulated. The PP-Li anode presented a stable Li plating/stripping for 1000 h in a symmetrical cell system and exhibited an enhanced performance of the lithium titanium oxide cell. The in situ Li3PO4/PVA solid polymer electrolyte protective layer provided a promising strategy to tackle the challenges raised by the intrinsic properties of the lithium metal anode.

Defects and dopant properties of Li3V2(PO4)3.

Project description:Polyanion phosphate based Li3V2(PO4)3 material has attracted considerable attention as a novel cathode material for potential use in rechargeable lithium ion batteries. The defect chemistry and dopant properties of this material are studied using well-established atomistic scale simulation techniques. The most favourable intrinsic defect process is the Li Frenkel (0.45?eV/defect) ensuring the formation of Li vacancies required for Li diffusion via the vacancy mechanism. Long range lithium paths via the vacancy mechanism were constructed and it is confirmed that the lowest activation energy of migration (0.60?eV) path is three dimensional with curved trajectory. The second most stable defect energy process is calculated to be the anti-site defect, in which Li and V ions exchange their positions (0.91?eV/defect). Tetravalent dopants were considered on both V and P sites in order to form Li vacancies needed for Li diffusion and the Li interstitials to increase the capacity respectively. Doping by Zr on the V site and Si on the P site are calculated to be energetically favourable.
