Lithium-ion conducting glass-ceramic electrolyte in the composition 75Li 2 S•5P 2 S 3 •20P 2 S 5 (mol%) was prepared by heat-treatment of an amorphous precursor. The amorphous precursor was obtained by a high-energy ball-milling process. The glass-ceramic showed high ion conductivity 2.0 x 10-3 Scm-1 at room temperature. Raman scattering measurements suggested that the glass-ceramic essentially composed of thio-phosphate anions, PS 4 3and P 2 S 6 4-, as structural units. A laboratory-scale all-solid-state battery was also assembled by use of the glass-ceramic as solid electrolytes and LiNi 1/3 Mn 1/3 Co 1/3 O 2 powders as positive electrode materials. The all-solid-state battery showed good charge-discharge cycle performance at room temperature under a constant current density of 0.1 mAcm-2 .
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.
