Oxide Cathodes: Functions, Instabilities, Self Healing, and Degradation Mitigations

Yanhao Dong et al.

Summary: Recent progress has been made in high-energy-density oxide cathodes for lithium-ion batteries, but cycling under extreme conditions can lead to various forms of degradation that shorten battery life and cause safety issues. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of these degradations is critical for developing mitigation strategies. This systematic overview provides insights into the functions, instabilities, and materials behaviors of oxide cathodes, including unusual anion and cation mobilities and extensive lattice reconstructions. These insights are important for understanding self-healing phenomena and for designing and mitigating degradation in cathodes for high-performance energy storage.

Enhanced mobility of cations and anions in the redox state: The polaronium mechanism

Yanhao Dong et al.

Summary: A polaronium mechanism is proposed to explain the enhanced slow-ion diffusivity observed under extreme redox conditions. The mechanism involves the formation of a transient complex between a polaronic electron or hole and a migrating counterion, which becomes highly mobile under specific conditions. The complex is favored by an electron-phonon interaction and can dissolve after ion migration, allowing for repeated enhancement of ion migration.

In situ multiscale probing of the synthesis of a Ni-rich layered oxide cathode reveals reaction heterogeneity driven by competing kinetic pathways

Hyeokjun Park et al.

Summary: Nickel-rich layered oxides are important cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries. The synthesis process is influenced by the kinetic competition between thermal decomposition and lithiation, which leads to the formation of spatially heterogeneous intermediates. Thermal decomposition results in defective structures, while promoting lithiation can mitigate their generation and suppress chemo-mechanical failures.

Bulk fatigue induced by surface reconstruction in layered Ni-rich cathodes for Li-ion batteries

Chao Xu et al.

Summary: A structure-driven degradation mechanism is proposed for Ni-rich layered cathode material NMC811, in which a proportion of the material exhibits a lowered accessible state of charge and becomes fatigued after repetitive cycling. This degradation is attributed to high interfacial lattice strain between the reconstructed surface and the bulk layered structure above a distinct threshold.

Reactive boride infusion stabilizes Ni-rich cathodes for lithium-ion batteries

Moonsu Yoon et al.

Summary: The use of engineered polycrystalline electrodes in lithium-ion batteries is crucial for cycling stability and safety, but achieving high-quality coatings at both the primary and secondary particle levels can be challenging. A coating-and-infusion approach using cobalt boride metallic glass on a Ni-rich layered cathode has been shown to significantly enhance performance, including rate capability and cycling stability under various conditions. The success of this approach is attributed to the simultaneous suppression of microstructural degradation and side reactions, as well as the critical role of strong selective interfacial bonding in ensuring uniform reactive wetting and facilitating infusion.

Capacity Fading Mechanisms in Ni-Rich Single-Crystal NCM Cathodes

Hoon-Hee Ryu et al.

Summary: The study found that despite the high resistance to microcracking, the electrochemical performance of single-crystal NCM cathodes is inferior to polycrystalline NCM cathodes in terms of capacity and cycling stability. During cycling, the lithium concentrations in single-crystal NCM cathodes become spatially inhomogeneous, leading to the coexistence of phases with different unit cell dimensions within a single particle, which affects lithium ion diffusion and causes rapid capacity fading.
