Composite electrodes based on Li3V2(PO4)3, Li4Ti5O12 and carbon nanotubes: The influence of composition, thickness and surface morphology on electrochemical properties

The influence of the composition, the thickness and the surface morphology of Li3V2(PO4)3 or Li4Ti5O12 based electrode composites with carbon nanomaterial and polyvinylidene fluoride on their electrochemical performance was examined. The thickness and the surface morphology of the electrodes were jointly controlled by rolling with different gaps and monitored using 3D laser microscopy and scanning electron microscopy.

Probabilistic models of the capacity of the electrode material in a wide range of current loads

An approach for constructing mathematical models of the current dependence of the capacity of electrode materials is proposed. The approach involves analyzing the probabilities of favorable and unfavorable events occurring on the elements of electrical equivalent circuits that can be used to model the electrode. Several probabilistic models that correspond to different combinations of a capacitor, a Warburg element and a constant phase element in an electrical circuit are proposed.

Neodymium-doped lithium titanate as anode material for lithium-ion batteries

Doped lithium titanate is known to be able to reversibly cycle in the potential range from 3 to 0.01 V and this ability depends both on the nature of the dopant and the doping level. In this work Li4Ti5O12 samples doped with Nd in the amount of 0.5 to 2.0% were studied. It was shown that while being cycled in the extended potential range, the samples with the doping level from 0.5 to 1.0% demonstrated the highest capacity.
