Influence of Iron Sulfide Nanoparticle Sizes in Solid‐State Batteries**
2021
Abstract Given the inherent performance limitations of intercalation‐based lithium‐ion batteries, solid‐state conversion batteries are promising systems for future energy storage. A high specific capacity and natural abundancy make iron disulfide (FeS2) a promising cathode‐active material. In this work, FeS2 nanoparticles were prepared solvothermally. By adjusting the synthesis conditions, samples with average particle diameters between 10 nm and 35 nm were synthesized. The electrochemical performance was evaluated in solid‐state cells with a Li‐argyrodite solid electrolyte. While the reduction of FeS2 was found to be irreversible in the initial discharge, a stable cycling of the reduced sp…
M�ssbauer study of the spatial distribution of the active species in Cs doped Fe2O3-V2O5 catalysts
1995
From a Cs doped Fe2O3-V2O5 (Fe:V=1.4) catalyst exhibiting an inhomogeneous composition after calcination, three different fractions have been separated by visual inspection. One fraction has been found to consist of mainly α-Fe2O3, another one of mainly FeVO4. The third fraction (S1 in the text) is the catalytically most active fraction containing besides both of the former components an amorphous phase of FexVyOz and also the dopant. By combining the results from transmission and conversion electron Mossbauer spectra it has been concluded that the amorphous component is enriched in the surface region of the crystallites of the catalyst. In addition, the formation of a thin surface layer of…
