In situ Fe K-edge X-ray absorption fine structure of a pyrite electrode in a Li/polyethylene oxide (LiClO{sub 4})/FeS{sub 2} battery environment
Abstract
Electronic and structural properties of materials generated by the reduction and subsequent oxidation of pyrite in a lithium-based solid polymer electrolyte have been examined by in situ fluorescence Fe K-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) in a FeS{sub 2}/Li battery environment. The XAFS results obtained are consistent with the formation of metallic iron as one of the products of the full (4-electron) discharge, in agreement with information reported in other laboratories. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data reveal that a subsequent 2-electron or 4-electron recharge generates a species with a Fe-S bond distance identical to that of pyrite, d(Fe-S) = 2.259 {angstrom}, with no other clearly detectable interactions due to more distant atoms. Based on the similarities between the metrical parameters and other features in the X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES), the ferrous sites in these species appear to be tetrahedrally coordinated, as in chalcopyrite (CuFeS{sub 2}), for which d(Fe-S) is 2.257 {angstrom}, and, thus, different than in Li{sub 2} FeS{sub 2}, a material that exhibits longer Fe-S distances.
