Li4Ti5O12 as anode in all-solid-state, plastic, lithium-ion batteries for low-power applications

Preparation and re-examination of Li4Ti4.85Al0.15O12 as anode material of lithium-ion battery

“…As shown in Table I are the crystallite sizes, calculated based on the XRD data, and the specific surface areas for both pristine Li 4 12 have approximately the same crystallite size at 9001C, the surface areas of the former are bigger than that of the latter. Figure 2 shows the SEM photos of the as-synthesized Al-Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 by the cellulose-assisted combustion method after further calcination at various temperatures for 5 h in air.…”

“…Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 , an oxide with a spinel-type lattice structure, has been receiving considerable attentions recently due to its several characteristics that are beneficial for such high-power applications [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. It is a zero-strain lithium insertion material, which ensures a long cycling life [5].…”

“…The poor electronic and lithium ionic conductivity may be the main problem of Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 anode for highrate application [11][12][13]. It was reported that the doping of Mg 21 into the Li 1 tetrahedral site of Li 4-Ti 5 O 12 can result in the creation of mixed Ti 31/41 couple and consequently a substantial increase of the electronic conductivity over the whole charge/discharge process [14].…”

On the other hand, the doping of a high-valence state cation in the Ti 41 site (16d), such as Ta 51 could also result in the formation of Ti 31 and the substantial increase of electronic conductivity [15] [17].…”

Li4Ti5O12 Nanoparticles Prepared with Gel‐hydrothermal Process as a High Performance Anode Material for Li‐ion Batteries

“…[1][2][3][4] This active material has a main discharge platform above the reduction potential of most organic electrolytes, and the passive films (SEI) with high resistances can be avoided on the LTO surface, which is very promising for electrodes in a large number of battery applications. 5,6 However, low rate capacity under high current density restricts its application in high power lithium batteries.…”
