Improving the stability,lithium diffusion dynamics,and specific capacity of SrLi_(2)Ti_(6)O_(14)via ZrO_(2)coating

摘要

SrLi_(2)Ti_(6)O_(14)(SLTO)coated with different amount of ZrO_(2)was successfully prepared.The as-obtained composites are stacked by a series of particles with a pure phase structure and a good crystallinity.Furthermore,ZrO_(2)coating not only enhances the structural stability of the materials but also facilitates the diffusion of lithium through the SEI film.As a result,the redox polarization was reduced,and the reversibility of the electrochemical reaction was enhanced.Particularly,SLTO-ZrO_(2)-2 sample delivers a high initial lithiation capacity of 283.6 mA h g^(-1),and the values maintain at 251.7,228.0,207.4,175.3,and 147.7 mA h g^(-1)at the current densities of 0.13,0.26,0.54,1.31,and 2.62 A g^(-1),respectively.Our experiment also confirmed that SLTO materials coated with ZrO_(2)are suitable for high power density applications,and the lithiation specific energy efficiency of SLTO-ZrO_(2)-2 is 200%as high as that of pure SLTO at a power density of 1257 W kg^(-1).
