Anisotropic Phase Boundary Morphology in Nanoscale Olivine Electrode Particles

Abstract: Li-insertion-induced phase transformation in nanoscale olivine particles is studied by phase-field simulations in this paper. We show that the anisotropic growth morphology observed in experiments is thermodynamically controlled by the elastic energy arising from the misfit strain between the Li-rich and Li-poor olivine phases and kinetically influenced by the Li surface-reaction kinetics. The one-dimensional Li diffusivity inherent to the olivine structure is found to kinetically stabilize the phase boundary … Show more

“…The electrode reaction rate, which is assumed to be exponentially dependent on the variation of free energy with respect to lithium concentration, i.e. the nonlinear electrode reaction kinetics, is specified as boundary conditions at the fixed electrode/electrolyte interface [18][19][20][21][22][23].…”

“…They predicted moving phase boundaries ("intercalation waves") sweeping across FePO 4 planes, consistent with experimental inferences of a "domino cascade" 27 as well as the suppression of equilibrium phase separation with decreasing particle size, 28 and Tang et al recently modeled the effect of coherency strain on intercalation wave structure. 29 No model, however, has yet addressed phase-separation dynamics under the experimentally relevant condition of constant applied current.…”
