Lithium-ion highly conducting Li6PS5Cl argyrodite-type
solid electrolyte was prepared by a facile solution process using
pyridine solvent as the reaction medium. During the synthesis process,
an excess amount of P2S5 was added to suppress
impurity peaks and enhance the ionic conductivity. Powder X-ray diffraction
analyses were carried out to analyze the crystalline phase and purity
of the prepared Li6PS5Cl solid electrolyte.
In addition, laser Raman spectroscopy and XPS were employed to confirm
the formation of Li6PS5Cl solid electrolyte.
Highly conductive Li6PS5Cl solid electrolyte
was obtained following a series of optimization processes, and it
was found that the Li6PS5Cl-15 P2S5 solid electrolyte shows a high ionic conductivity value
(4.3 mS cm–1) at room temperature. We have used
cyclic voltammetry (CV), DC polarization, and galvanostatic charge–discharge
techniques to study the electrochemical performance of the selected
Li6PS5Cl-15 P2S5 solid
electrolyte.
