TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed transition-metal compounds having the ordered-olivine, a modified olivine, or the rhombohedral NASICON structure and the polyanion (PO 4 ) 3− as at least one constituent for use as electrode material for alkali-ion rechargeable batteries.
Abstract: The invention relates to materials for use as electrodes in an alkali-ion secondary (rechargeable) battery, particularly a lithium-ion battery. The invention provides transition-metal compounds having the ordered-olivine, a modified olivine, or the rhombohedral NASICON structure and the polyanion (PO 4 ) 3− as at least one constituent for use as electrode material for alkali-ion rechargeable batteries.

TL;DR: In this paper, the structure and conductivity of crystalline Li-ion conductors are discussed and various strategies currently used to enhance ionic conductivity, including theoretical approaches, ultimately optimizing the electrolyte/electrode interface and improving cell performance.
Abstract: Inorganic solid lithium ion conductors are potential candidates as replacement for conventional organic electrolytes for safety concerns. However, achieving a Li-ion conductivity comparable to that in existing liquid electrolytes (>1 mS cm–1) remains a challenge in solid-state electrolytes. One of the approaches for achieving a desirable conductivity is doping of various elements into the lattice framework. Our discussion on the structure and conductivity of crystalline Li-ion conductors includes description of NAtrium Super Ionic CONductor (NASICON)-type conductors, garnet-type conductors, perovskite-type conductors, and Lithium Super Ionic CONductor (LISICON)-type conductors. Moreover, we discuss various strategies currently used to enhance ionic conductivity, including theoretical approaches, ultimately optimizing the electrolyte/electrode interface and improving cell performance.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of liquid-phase syntheses for the preparation of sulfide-based solid electrolytes and composites of electrolyte and electrodes is presented, and the charge-discharge performances of the all-solid-state lithium batteries using these components are compared.
Abstract: Solid sulfide electrolytes are key materials in all-solid-state lithium batteries because of their high lithium-ion conductivity and deformability, which enable the lithium-ion path to be connected between the material’s grain boundaries under pressure near room temperature. However, sulfur species are moisture-sensitive and exhibit high vapour pressures; therefore, syntheses of sulfide electrolytes need to be carefully designed. Liquid-phase reactions can be performed at low temperatures in controlled atmospheres, opening up the prospect of scalable processes for the preparation of sulfide electrolytes. Here, we review liquid-phase syntheses for the preparation of sulfide-based solid electrolytes and composites of electrolytes and electrodes, and we compare the charge–discharge performances of the all-solid-state lithium batteries using these components. The high lithium-ion conductivity and deformability of solid sulfide electrolytes make them key materials in all-solid-state lithium batteries. Liquid-phase reactions are valid and scalable approaches for the preparation of sulfide-based solid electrolytes that overcome the issues of moisture sensitivity and high vapour pressures of sulfur species.

TL;DR: In this article, substitution effects of TiO/sup 4+/ in LiTi/sub 2/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/ by various ions (Al/sup 3+/, Sc/Sup 3+), Y/sup3+/, and La/sup 5+/) were reported.
Abstract: High lithium ionic conductivity was obtained in Li/sub 1+X/M/sub X/Ti/sub 2-X/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/ (M=Al, Sc, Y, and La) systems. Lithium titanium phosphate, LiTi/sub 2/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/, is composed of both TiO/sub 6/ octahedra and PO/sub 4/ tetrahedra, which are linked by corners to form a three dimensional network, with a space group R3-barC. Some workers have already described that the conductivity increased considerably if Ti/sup 4+/ in LiTi/sub 2/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/ was substituted by slightly larger cations such as Ga/sup 3+/(1),Sc/sup 3+/(2), and In/sup 3+/(3,4). These results are similar to each other because of their close ionic radii. In this communication, substitution effects of Ti/sup 4+/ in LiTi/sub 2/(PO/sub 4/)/sub 3/ by various ions (Al/sup 3+/, Sc/sup 3+/, Y/sup 3+/, and La/sup 3+/) on their conductivities are reported.
