description | Novel (80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub>)·yLiI composite solid electrolytes (y = 5, 10, 15) were prepared by mechannochemical synthesis. XRD results showed that the pattern of 80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub> was similar to that of AlI<sub>3</sub>, which means that Li<sub>2</sub>S was dissolved in AlI<sub>3</sub> matrix during preparation. This structure was still maintained after LiI addition. The current measured at constant applied DC voltage indicated that (80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub>)·yLiI composites are intrinsically pure Li-ion conductors. The ionic conductivity at 25 °C of y = 10 was about 2.3 × 10<sup>−4</sup> Scm<sup>−1</sup>, which was about three times higher than that of y = 0. The conductivity of y = 10 increased 20 times to 2.2 × 10<sup>−3</sup> Scm<sup>−1</sup> at 70 °C. These values were highest among those observed from Li<sub>2</sub>S-based materials. It was revealed that Li-ion moves in 80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub> by a hoping mechanism, while the lattice dipoles are the origin of Li-ion movement in (80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub>)·yLiI. The polarization measurements using Liǀ90 (80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub>)·10LiI ǀLi and LiǀLi<sub>6</sub>PS<sub>5</sub>Clǀ90 (80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub>)·10LiIǀLi<sub>6</sub>PS<sub>5</sub>ClǀLi cells proved that 90 (80Li<sub>2</sub>S − 20AlI<sub>3</sub>)·10LiI reacts with Li metal, but it is relatively stable at a low voltage. Sample y = 10 was also employed as a solid electrolyte in the positive electrode of a solid-state Li-S battery to study its stability in the voltage range of the positive electrode. CuS and Li<sub>4.4</sub>Si were the electrode-active materials. The cell was cycled in CC-CV mode at 1.0 mA cm<sup>−2</sup> (CC) with a cut-off voltage of 1.0–2.3 V. The cell delivered a stable capacity of about 400 mAh g<sup>−1</sup><sub>CuS</sub> after 40 cycles. |
