Studies of Functional Defects for Fast Na-Ion Conduction in Na 3-yPS4-xClx with a Combined Experimental and Computational Approach
Abstract
Abstract All‐solid‐state rechargeable sodium (Na)‐ion batteries are promising for inexpensive and high‐energy‐density large‐scale energy storage. In this contribution, new Na solid electrolytes, Na 3− y PS 4− x Cl x , are synthesized with a strategic approach, which allows maximum substitution of Cl for S ( x = 0.2) without significant compromise of structural integrity or Na deficiency. A maximum conductivity of 1.96 mS cm −1 at 25 °C is achieved for Na 3.0 PS 3.8 Cl 0.2 , which is two orders of magnitude higher compared with that of tetragonal Na 3 PS 4 (t‐Na 3 PS 4 ). The activation energy ( E a ) is determined to be 0.19 eV. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations shed light on the merit of maximizing Cl‐doping while maintaining low Na deficiency in enhanced Na‐ion conduction. Solid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) characterizations confirm the successful substitution of Cl for S and the resulting change of P oxidation state from 5+ to 4+, which is also verified by spin moment analysis. Ion transport pathways are determined with a tracer‐exchange NMR method. The functional detects that promote Na ‐ion transport are maximized for further improvement in ionic conductivity. Full‐cell performance is demonstrated usingmore »
