| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Through careful overlooking and reconsiderations of materials science for energy storage by combined experimental, spectroscopic, and computational approach, we demonstrated several effective strategies and new materials, together with battery devices including functional interfaces. Towards activation of oxygen redox in solids to achieve much larger amount of charge storage, we established molecular-orbital principles and identified two metastable intermediate, alternate spin state and oxygen-oxygen bonding, which induce voltage hysteresis upon charge-discharge. To avoid such energy loss and activate stable oxygen redox, introduction of ordered vacancy showed promising by modulated electric states and self-reordering phenomenon induced by cooperative Coulombic interaction. Also, we discovered negative permittivity of water molecules confined in nanosheets that largely (1.7 times) increase interfacial capacitance. Increasing salt concentration was revealed to modulate coordination structure, electric state, and interface, to largely improve several battery functions. Particularly, aqueous systems have realized surprisingly wide stable voltage range exceeding 4 V (1.2 V in pure water). Besides, accumulating multi-functions into single solvent molecule have established a practical strategy for industry. A prototype battery cell realized cut-off voltage of 5.2 V with stable cycling over 1000 times, corresponding to 1.3 – 2.6 times larger energy density than that of lithium-ion batteries.
