Despite the attractive features of NASICON LATP, it is not clear whether the high conductivity of Li 1+x Ti 2−x Al x (PO 4) 3 composition is intrinsic to the structure or the formation of secondary phases that favors sintering and eliminate grain-boundary resistance is the cause of high conductivity [5], [6]. Towards this end, lithium-ion conduction of mixed-metal NASICON-phases of the formula, LiM v M iii (PO 4) 3 , where M V = Nb, Ta; M iii = Al, Cr, Fe were examined to obtained a NASICON phase possessing intrinsic conducting properties similar to LiTi 2 (PO 4) 3 but without Ti iv [6]. The planetary mono mill is a technique that uses a high energy ball mill for synthesizing solid electrolyte materials to achieve phase homogeneity of the final product. However, the use of this milling machine is a well-known technique and has attracted the interest of
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
