| description | Lithium Ion Battery (LIB), a cation ion battery, is readily available in the market for
some time and Fluoride Ion Battery (FIB), an anion battery, will be developed to replace
LIB in near future. This is mainly due to three reasons; safety (formation of dendrites
during high rate charging and discharging for LIB), higher energy density (energy stored
per unit volume in FIB) and cost (high cost cobalt-based cathode).
Having fluoride ions instead of lithium ions intercalating within FIB electrochemical cell
can minimize safety issues and also increasing the stability within the cell. Nano-sized
Lanthanum (III) fluoride (LaF3) is being used as a material for solid electrolytes as it has
high ionic conductivity due to its tysonite-structure. This material has the potential
to deliver a better performance within the cell. Adding on to that, metal elements
(Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr) and Barium (Ba)) are used to dope into LaF3, creating
defects within lattice to further enhance the performance.
Solid electrolyte LaF3 material will be synthesized, characterized and then evaluating
their ionic conductivity using a Swagelok cell and compared. A relationship between
different element species doping, concentration and temperature effect of nano-sized
LaF3 host materials with ionic conductivity are determined. |
