First-principles Study of Iron Oxyfluorides and Lithiation of FeOF
First-principles studies of iron oxyfluorides in the FeF2 rutile framework (FeOxF2−x, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1) are performed using density functional theory (DFT) in the general gradient approximation (GGA) with a Hubbard U correction. Studies of O/F orderings reveal FeOF to be particularly stable compared to other FeOxF2−x (x 6= 1) structures, where FeF2–FeOF mixing is not energetically favored. The band ga...
متن کاملLithium-assisted plastic deformation of silicon electrodes in lithium-ion batteries: a first-principles theoretical study.
Silicon can host a large amount of lithium, making it a promising electrode for high-capacity lithium-ion batteries. Recent experiments indicate that silicon experiences large plastic deformation upon Li absorption, which can significantly decrease the stresses induced by lithiation and thus mitigate fracture failure of electrodes. These issues become especially relevant in nanostructured elect...
متن کاملNeutron reflectometry studies on the lithiation of amorphous silicon electrodes in lithium-ion batteries.
Neutron reflectometry is used to study in situ the intercalation of lithium into amorphous silicon electrodes. The experiments are done using a closed three-electrode electrochemical cell setup. As a working electrode, an about 40 nm thick amorphous silicon layer is used that is deposited on a 1 cm thick quartz substrate coated with palladium as a current collector. The counter electrode and th...
متن کاملKinetics of initial lithiation of crystalline silicon electrodes of lithium-ion batteries.
Electrochemical experiments were conducted on {100}, {110}, and {111} silicon wafers to characterize the kinetics of the initial lithiation of crystalline Si electrodes. Under constant current conditions, we observed constant cell potentials for all orientations, indicating the existence of a phase boundary that separates crystalline silicon from the amorphous lithiated phase. For a given poten...
