研究実績の概要 |
The goal of this JSPS fellowship is to identify new high-potential cathode materials for Li- and Na-ion batteries. To this end, we studied the electrochemical properties of a heteropolyanionic SO4-PO3F solid-solution Na2Fe(SO4)2-x(PO3F)x.2H2O. The PO3F unit has not been studied as a polyanion for cathode materials so far and we were interested in its inductive effect and its impact on electrochemical performances. Galvanostatic cycling showed with a PO3F substitution we can reach the same redox potential as the pure SO4-based compound, which suggests that PO3F has strong inductive effect. This would open the pathway to a new class of high-potential cathode materials. We furthermore studied the redox behaviour via ex situ Mössbauer following the reversible oxidation/reduction of the Fe3+/Fe2+ couple. A publication is under preparation. A second project consists of the electrochemical and structural characterization of a Na-based layered oxide containing Ti4+ and Co2+, which displays a large hysteresis during Na (de)intercalation suggesting a spin transition of Co2+ upon oxidation. We are using a multi-angle approach with complementing characterization methods such as ex situ soft and hard X-ray absorption, magnetic measurements and galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) experiments to understand the underlying redox mechanism. This project is currently on-going.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
Experiments and characterization of a novel SO4-PO3F have been mostly completed and the respective paper is currently under preparation. In addition, experiments and analyses of a layered oxide explaining the reaction mechanism are undergoing with good progress.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
Soft X-ray absorption measurements are scheduled for May on the topic of layered oxides. And further detailed electrochemical and structural studies will be conducted in the next few months. A publication will follow after completing all experiments. In addition, new polyanionic materials will be examined for their possible electrochemical activity.
