Abstract
This is the first demonstration of successful Y3+ doping, and Y3+-doped O3-NaFe0.4Ni0.3Mn0.3O2 (NaFNM) cathodes exhibit superior cyclability and C-rate capabilities. Y3+ doping enabled cells with 91% capacity retention at 1 C after 100 cycles and a high specific capacity of 102 mA h g–1 at a 7 C rate. Furthermore, the full cell delivered outstanding cycling stability, with a capacity retention of 80% after 500 cycles at 1 C and 71.3% after 1000 cycles. Operando X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy, along with simulations using density functional theory and neural network potential methods, provided comprehensive insights on the effects of Y3+ doping on the cycling characteristics. Our results confirm that Y3+ doping effectively stabilizes the O3 structure, enhances the electrochemical performance, and addresses the challenge of irreversible O3 to P3 phase transitions.
期刊介绍:
The journal Chemistry of Materials focuses on publishing original research at the intersection of materials science and chemistry. The studies published in the journal involve chemistry as a prominent component and explore topics such as the design, synthesis, characterization, processing, understanding, and application of functional or potentially functional materials. The journal covers various areas of interest, including inorganic and organic solid-state chemistry, nanomaterials, biomaterials, thin films and polymers, and composite/hybrid materials. The journal particularly seeks papers that highlight the creation or development of innovative materials with novel optical, electrical, magnetic, catalytic, or mechanical properties. It is essential that manuscripts on these topics have a primary focus on the chemistry of materials and represent a significant advancement compared to prior research. Before external reviews are sought, submitted manuscripts undergo a review process by a minimum of two editors to ensure their appropriateness for the journal and the presence of sufficient evidence of a significant advance that will be of broad interest to the materials chemistry community.
