Superionic Conduction in Co-Vacant P2-Nax CoO2 Created by Hydrogen Reductive Elimination.


ABSTRACT: The layered P2-Nax MO2 (M: transition metal) system has been widely recognized as electronic or mixed conductor. Here, we demonstrate that Co vacancies in P2-Nax CoO2 created by hydrogen reductive elimination lead to an ionic conductivity of 0.045 S cm(-1) at 25 °C. Using in situ synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, the composition of the superionic conduction phase is evaluated to be Na0.61 (H3 O)0.18 Co0.93 O2 . Electromotive force measurements as well as molecular dynamics simulations indicate that the ion conducting species is proton rather than hydroxide ion. The fact that the Co-stoichiometric compound Nax (H3 O)y CoO2 does not exhibit any significant ionic conductivity proves that Co vacancies are essential for the occurrence of superionic conductivity.
