  • Effect of Silicon-Based Electrolyte Additive on the Solid-Electrolyte Interphase of Rechargeable Mg Batteries
    Shivaraju Guddehalli Chandrappa, Guruprakash Karkera, Sirshendu Dinda, Mario Löw, Holger Euchner, Adam Reupert, Soutam Panja, Mohan K Bhattarai, Matthias M May, Zhirong Zhao‐Karger, Maximilian Fichtner

    The unstable solid‐electrolyte interface (SEI) poses a major obstacle to the widespread use of rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) as high‐volumetric‐capacity next‐generation energy storage systems. This issue is effectively mitigated by adding 3 wt.% tris(trimethylsilyl) borate (TMSB, C9H27BO3Si3) to a state‐of‐the‐art Cl‐free magnesium tetrakis(hexafluoroisopropyloxy)borate in dimethoxyethane (Mg[B(hfip) 4 ] 2 /DME) non‐aqueous electrolyte. The modified electrolyte enables stable Mg||Mo 6 S 8 (Chevrel phase, CP) full cell operation for up to 1000 cycles at a 1C rate. Tip‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) reveals that TMSB scavenges degraded electrolyte components and facilitates the formation of a uniform and thin SEI on the magnesium anode. Reflection anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS) further demonstrates that TMSB transforms the interfacial structure, creating a more isotropic and robust SEI during the initial stripping and plating process, thereby extending electrochemical cycling stability. This approach presents a compelling pathway for practical RMB development by stabilizing the SEI and optimizing magnesium electrolyte formulations.

    The development of non‐aqueous lithium‐oxygen (Li‐O2) batteries is hindered by inefficient discharge product decomposition, side reactions with the electrolyte, and high charge overpotentials (>1 V). This study explores the use of sodium cobalt borate (Na3CoB5O10, NCBO) with cobalt in tetrahedral geometry as an oxygen electrocatalyst for non‐aqueous Li‐O2 batteries. The prepared cobalt borate exhibits an oxygen evolution reaction (OER) overpotential of 326 mVRHE at a current density of 10 mA cm−2 and a Tafel slope of 42 mV dec−1 in 1 m KOH. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations identify the OH‐covered (101) surface of NCBO as the preferred OER site, with an overpotential between 451 and 544 mV. In Li‐O2 batteries, the NCBO cathode demonstrates 200 cycles with an overpotential of 1.95 V and 56.00% round‐trip efficiency at a capacity limit of 500 mA h g−1, along with a smaller charge overpotential of 0.64 V at a capacity limit of 2000 mA h g−1. Post‐cycling analysis of NCBO electrodes reveals electronically conductive Lithium Superoxide (LiO2) as the dominant discharge product. As revealed by DFT studies, the promising performance of NCBO in Li‐O2 batteries is attributed to its tetrahedral Co coordination, highlighting its potential for electrocatalytic applications.

    The electrochemical instability of electrode active materials as well as the flammability of the organic liquid electrolytes in Li‐ion batteries pose challenges for their safety and long cycle life. Solid electrolytes (SEs) that exhibit high ionic conductivity and a wide electrochemical stability window alleviate these challenges. Garnet‐type Li7La3Zr2O12 is a promising SE for next‐generation all‐solid‐state batteries. Herein, samples are prepared via a modified solid‐state reaction of compositionally complex Li6.3+zLa3Zr1.1−z Nb0.8Gd0.1InzO12 under different sintering atmospheres. X–ray diffraction patterns and Raman spectra prove the formation of a cubic garnet structure. Significant morphological changes are detected upon In‐doping and correlated to the ionic conductivity. The total Li‐ion conductivity of the dense pellets reaches 1 mS cm−1, among the highest reported to date, with an activation energy of 0.38 eV for the macroscopic ion transport obtained by impedance spectroscopy and as low as 0.24 eV for local Li‐ion hopping processes determined by 7Li nuclear magnetic resonance spin‐lattice relaxation measurements. The electronic contribution to the conductivity is negligible (10−10 S cm−1) making this compositionally complex SE a suitable candidate for all‐solid‐state battery applications.

    Soutam Panja, Yidong Miao, Johannes Döhn, Jaehoon Choi, Simon Fleischmann, Shivaraju Guddehalli Chandrappa, Thomas Diemant, Axel Groß, Guruprakash Karkera, Maximilian Fichtner
    Advanced Functional Materials, 2025
    Chloride–ion batteries (CIBs) offer a compelling alternative to conventional battery systems, particularly in applications demanding cost‐effectiveness and resource sustainability. However, the development of tailored electrode materials remains a critical bottleneck for CIB advancement. In this study, an untapped class of perovskite‐based material, potassium hexachlorostannate (K2SnCl6, denoted as KSC) is synthesized via a facile mechanochemical route for the first time. The prepared KSC is subjected to various characterization techniques to confirm its crystal structure and morphology. Herein, KSC exhibits intriguing electrochemical performance in a non‐aqueous CIB configuration, utilizing a lithium metal counter electrode. Furthermore, ex situ X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, reveal a conversion reaction mechanism involving chloride ion shuttling and provide insights into structural evolution during cycling. Moreover, the density functional theory (DFT) studies support additional degradation products that can potentially limit the performance of these materials as potential battery electrodes in CIBs.

    Materials Futures, 2024
    This study explores high-entropy sulfides (HESs) as potential electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Novel Pa-3 and Pnma structured HESs containing Fe, Mn, Ni, Co and Mo, were synthesized via a facile mechanochemical method. Structural and chemical properties were extensively characterized using x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The electrocatalytic performance of four as-prepared HESs in alkaline electrolyte for HER reveals the remarkable outperformance compared to medium-entropy and conventional sulfides. Particularly, (Fe0.2Mn0.2Ni0.2Co0.2Mo0.2)S2 demonstrated outstanding activities, with minimal overpotentials (187 mV at 10 mA cm–2) and outstanding durability under harsh alkaline conditions (a mere polarization increase ΔE = 17 mV after 14 h via chronopotentiometry). The remarkable catalytic activities can be attributed to synergistic effects resulting from the cocktail effects within the high-entropy disulfide. The introduction of Mo contributes to the formation of a layered structure, which leads to an increased surface area and thus to a superior HER performance compared to other HES and conventional sulfides. This work demonstrates the promising potential of HES and underscores that further development for catalytic applications paves the way for innovative routes to new and more efficient active materials for HER catalysis.
  • K-Doping Suppresses Oxygen Redox in P2-Na0.67Ni0.11Cu0.22Mn0.67O2 Cathode Materials for Sodium-Ion Batteries
    Bei Zhou, Deniz Wong, Zhongheng Fu, Hao Guo, Christian Schulz, Guruprakash Karkera, Horst Hahn, Matteo Bianchini, Qingsong Wang
    Small, 2024
    In P2‐type layered oxide cathodes, Na site‐regulation strategies are proposed to modulate the Na+ distribution and structural stability. However, their impact on the oxygen redox reactions remains poorly understood. Herein, the incorporation of K+ in the Na layer of Na0.67Ni0.11Cu0.22Mn0.67O2 is successfully applied. The effects of partial substitution of Na+ with K+ on electrochemical properties, structural stability, and oxygen redox reactions have been extensively studied. Improved Na+ diffusion kinetics of the cathode is observed from galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) and rate performance. The valence states and local structural environment of the transition metals (TMs) are elucidated via operando synchrotron X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). It is revealed that the TMO2 slabs tend to be strengthened by K‐doping, which efficiently facilitates reversible local structural change. Operando X‐ray diffraction (XRD) further confirms more reversible phase changes during the charge/discharge for the cathode after K‐doping. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest that oxygen redox reaction in Na0.62K0.03Ni0.11Cu0.22Mn0.67O2 cathode has been remarkably suppressed as the nonbonding O 2p states shift down in the energy. This is further corroborated experimentally by resonant inelastic X‐ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopy, ultimately proving the role of K+ incorporated in the Na layer.
  • Reactivation of dissolved polysulfides with nitrogen doped graphene decorated carbon cloth as an effective interlayer for magnesium-sulfur battery
    Dasari Bosubabu, Mohsen Sotoudeh, Liping Wang, Zhenyou Li, Thomas Diemant, Guruprakash Karkera, Ebrahim Abouzari-Lotf, Axel Groß, Maximilian Fichtner, Zhirong Zhao-Karger
    Journal of Energy Storage, 2024
    The theoretically high energy densities and wide availability of active materials have led to great interest in the development of magnesium‑sulfur (Mg S) batteries. However, poor electronic conductivity of sulfur, active material dissolution, polysulfide shuttling, and poor cycling stability are major challenges that need to be tackled. Herein we observed the pristine Mg S cell faces significant overcharging issues and cell failure is common within 30 cycles with significant capacity decay. With the help of XRD and elemental mapping realized that the dissolved liquid polysulfides are metastable in nature. Due to the high sulfophilic nature of the separator, polysulfide absorption leads to slow crystal growth inside the separator. This active material trapping might be the reason for quick capacity decay. We attempted to revive the dissolved polysulfides by introducing conductive nitrogen-doped graphene (N-gpn)@Carbon cloth(CC) interlayer between the electrodes and separator. This interlayer has a high polysulfide absorption nature, which allows the battery to demonstrate an initial capacity of 1075 mAh g −1 and increased cycling stability to 100 cycles. However, this stability was further enhanced to 300 cycles by protecting the anode. Theoretical considerations suggest that among all polysulfides, MgS 8 , has the strongest interaction with N-gpn and can be trapped most favorably in a defective N-gpn. This leads to enhanced utilization of the active material and improved cycling stability. • The novel liquid process allows uniform distribution of sulfur over the electrode. • Nitrogen-doped graphene (N-gpn) interlayer reduces solid polysulfide trapping. • Calculations prove that MgS8 favors N-gpn over other polysulfides in interactions. • Cathode protection increases capacity from 638 to 1075 mAh/g, maintains 100 cycles • Magnesium anode protection further increases capacity retention to 300 cycles.
  • High-Entropy Sulfides as Highly Effective Catalysts for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction

    With respect to efficient use of diminishing or harder to reach energy resources, the catalysis of processes that will otherwise require high overpotentials is a very important application in today's world. As a newly developed class of materials, high‐entropy sulfides (HESs) are promising electrocatalysts for a variety of different reactions. In this report, HESs containing five or six transition metals are synthesized in a one‐step mechanochemical process. Seven HESs of Pnma (M:S≈1:1) and three Pa‐3 (M:S = 1:2) structures are investigated as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The performances and properties of the HESs with different compositions and structures are compared with each other and with commercial IrO2 as reference material, in terms of OER overpotential, Tafel slope, electrochemically active surface area, ionic conductivity, and durability. The structural and chemical properties of these HESs are determined by X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy. Most of the HESs show excellent and promising performance as OER electrocatalysts under alkaline conditions, and outperform the reference OER catalyst IrO2.
  • A Structurally Flexible Halide Solid Electrolyte with High Ionic Conductivity and Air Processability

    Abstract In this work, a structurally revivable, chloride‐ion conducting solid electrolyte (SE), CsSn 0.9 In 0.067 Cl 3 , with a high ionic conductivity of 3.45 × 10 −4 S cm −1 at 25 °C is investigated. The impedance spectroscopy, density functional theory, solid‐state 35 Cl NMR, and electron paramagnetic resonance studies collectively reveal that the high Cl − ionic mobility originates in the flexibility of the structural building blocks, Sn/InCl 6 octahedra. The vacancy‐dominated Cl − ion diffusion encompasses co‐ordinated Sn/In(Cl) site displacements that depend on the exact stoichiometry, and are accompanied by changes in the local magnetic moments. Owing to these promising properties, the suitability of the CsSn 0.9 In 0.067 Cl 3 , as an electrolyte is demonstrated by designing all‐solid‐state batteries, with different anodes and cathodes. The comparative investigation of interphases with Li, Li–In, Mg, and Ca anodes reveals different levels of reactivity and interphase formation. The CsSn 0.9 In 0.067 Cl 3 demonstrates an excellent humidity tolerance (up to 50% relative humidity) in ambient air, maintaining high structural integrity without compromises in ionic conductivity, which stands in contrast to commercial halide‐based lithium conductors. The discovery of a halide perovskite conductor, with air processability and structure revival ability paves the way for the development of advanced air processable SEs, for next‐generation batteries.

    Chemistryselect, 2023
    The development of commercially viable fuel cells and metal‐air batteries requires effective and cheap bifunctional catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Multi‐component Pt−Fe−Co−Ni nanoparticles on multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were synthesized by wet chemistry route via NaBH4 reduction of metal salts, followed by sintering at different temperatures. The catalyst demonstrates an excellent ORR activity and a promising OER activity in 0.1 m KOH, with a bi‐functional over‐potential, ΔE of 0.83 V, which is comparable to the values of Pt/C or RuO2. Furthermore, it shows outstanding long‐term stability in ORR and OER, namely diffusion limited current density at a potential of 0.3 V decreased just by 5.5 % after 10000 cycles in ORR. The results of the PFCN@NT300 indicate a significant effect of the substitution of Pt by the transition metal (TM) and the formation of nanoparticles on the catalytic performance, especially in the OER.
