We report new solid state and hydrothermal synthetic routes to (Li,Na)2FePO4F that incorporate carbon-containing additives result in good electrochemical properties of this Li (or Na) ion electrode material. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis Na2FePO4F prepared by flux growth confirms the unusual structural features compound include pairs face-sharing metal octahedra [6 + 1] coordination sodium ions. Facile Na−Li ion-exchange occurs upon reflux with lithium salts, cycling a cell (vs....
Lithium transition metal phosphate olivines such as LiFePO4 have been recognized very promising electrodes for lithium-ion batteries because of their energy storage capacity combined with electrochemical and thermal stability. A key issue in these materials is to determine the synthetic conditions optimum control particle size morphology, ideally find those that result nanocrystalline products. Here, we report a full study examines synthesis material via hydrothermal methods give single...
In the recent hunt for novel Na-ion cathode hosts, a variety of sodium analogues classic Li-ion structures have been thoroughly explored. However, generally possess modified and dissimilar energetics compared to their due large size Na+ (102 pm) vs Li+ (76 pm), often resulting in sluggish kinetics. Materials development targeted toward new different specific host possessing optimum properties migration is crucial. Here, we report first metal fluoropyrophosphate with three-dimensional...
Abstract Deep fracture‐hosted fluids of Precambrian bedrock cratons are relatively stagnant over long time spans compared to near‐surface systems. However, episodic events, such as fracture reactivations, transgressions, and deglaciations, may introduce dilute water, replacing, mixing with the deep continental brines, thereby sparking microbial activity. Secondary minerals that line fractures serve important geochemical archives for events. Here we explore mineral record Archean rocks...
