Evaluation of Tavorite-Structured Cathode Materials for Lithium-Ion Batteries Using High-Throughput Computing

Cathode materials with structure similar to the mineral tavorite have shown promise for use in lithium-ion batteries, but this class of materials is relatively unexplored. We use high-throughput density-functional-theory calculations to evaluate tavorite-structured oxyphosphates, fluorophosphates, o...

description Cathode materials with structure similar to the mineral tavorite have shown promise for use in lithium-ion batteries, but this class of materials is relatively unexplored. We use high-throughput density-functional-theory calculations to evaluate tavorite-structured oxyphosphates, fluorophosphates, oxysulfates, and fluorosulfates for use as cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries. For each material we consider the insertion of both one and two lithium ions per redox-active metal, calculating average voltages and stability relative to a database of nearly 100,000 previously calculated compounds. To evaluate lithium mobility, we calculate the activation energies for lithium diffusion through the known tavorite cathode materials LiVO(PO[subscript 4]), LiV(PO[subscript 4])F, and LiFe(SO[subscript 4])F. Our calculations indicate that tavorite-structured materials are capable of very high rates of one-dimensional lithium diffusion, and several tavorite-structured materials may be capable of reversibly inserting two lithium ions per redox-active metal.
