Ionic conductivity enhancement in solid polymer electrolytes by electrochemical in situ formation of an interpenetrating network

Ionic conductivity enhancement of polymer electrolytes with ceramic nanowire fillers.

Solid-state electrolytes provide substantial improvements to safety and electrochemical stability in lithium-ion batteries when compared with conventional liquid electrolytes, which makes them a promising alternative technology for next-generation high-energy batteries. Currently, the low mobility of lithium ions in solid electrolytes limits their practical application. The ongoing research ove...

A Computer Simulation Study of Ionic Conductivity in Polymer Electrolytes

In this paper we present a computer simulation study of ionic conductivity in solid polymeric electrolytes. The multiphase nature of the material is taken into account. The polymer is represented by a regular lattice whose sites represent either crystalline or amorphous regions with the charge carrier performing a random walk. Different waiting times are assigned to sites corresponding to the d...

Nanostructure enhanced ionic transport in fullerene reinforced solid polymer electrolytes.

Solid polymer electrolytes, such as polyethylene oxide (PEO) based systems, have the potential to replace liquid electrolytes in secondary lithium batteries with flexible, safe, and mechanically robust designs. Previously reported PEO nanocomposite electrolytes routinely use metal oxide nanoparticles that are often 5-10 nm in diameter or larger. The mechanism of those oxide particle-based polym...
