Understanding & Controlling Oxygen Release in Anionic Redox Cathodes

Abstract

The proposed research seeks to significantly advance the state-of-the-art in understanding oxygen release in anionic redox cathodesand provide design principles to guide the development of cathode materials that do not release oxygen during electrochemical cycling. Anion redox cathodes, specifically Li-rich chemistries, are natural successors to many widespread commercialized cathodes such as the Ni-Mn-Co family, boasting higher energy densities. The prevention of oxygen release is crucial for these next-generation cathodes to be employed as #drop-in# replacements for current materials. Additionally, many anion redox compositions of interest do not involve Co and use less Ni than in conventional NMCs, allowing for a sustainable supply chain.
