Novel Electrochemical Materials Prepared by Sol-Gel Chemistry
Abstract
Past efforts in this program have been devoted to exploring the preparation, properties, and structures of various beta alumina compositions in which the mobile sodium ion content was replaced with a variety of divalent and trivalent cations. Though this line of work has produced a great number of new and unusual materials, in particular unusual solid electrolytes and new optical materials, as well as insight into the factors which control fast ion transport in solids, it seemed an appropriate time to move on to another topic. So, over the past year, most of the effort in this program has been devoted to investigations of the use of sol-gel chemistry to produce unusual electrochemical materials, such as solid state ionic conductors, new high rate cathode materials, and unusual organic-inorganic composite materials.
