Solid Electrolyte Battery Materials.

Abstract

The program consists of two major parts at the present time: Investigation of the synthesis and fabrication of oxide solid electrolytes, and search for new alkali metal ion-conducting solid electrolytes. An investigation of the structure and transport behavior of species within graphite intercalation compounds for use as potential cathode systems is also being pursued. The technique being investigated for the fabrication of oxides is based upon the controlled oxidation of infiltrated polymeric precursor materials. In this method a suitable polymer material is infiltrated with metallic salts and subsequently decomposed. A number of ferrocyanide compounds have been prepared, their structures analyzed, and ionic mobility studies performed on them. Ac and dc conductivity measurements have been carried out on undoped, ZrF4 doped, and BaF2/AlF3 doped polycrystalline KAlF4. (Modified author abstract)
