Room-Temperature Micropillar Growth of Lithium-Titanate-Carbon Composite Structures by Self-Biased Direct Current Magnetron Sputtering for Lithium Io…
2019
Here, an unidentified type of micropillar growth is described at room temperature during conventional direct-current magnetron sputtering (DC-MS) deposition from a Li4Ti5O12+graphite sputter target under negative substrate bias and high operating pressure. These fabricated carbon-Li2O-TiO2 microstructures consisting of various Li4Ti5O12/Li2TiO3/LixTiO2 crystalline phases are demonstrated as an anode material in Li-ion microbatteries. The described micropillar fabrication method is a low-cost, substrate independent, single-step, room-temperature vacuum process utilizing a mature industrial complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)-compatible technology. Furthermore, tentative considerat…
Effect of doping and crystallite size on the electrochemical performance of Li4Ti5O12
2016
Abstract Defect spinel phase lithium titanate (Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 ) has been suggested as a promising negative electrode material for next generation lithium ion batteries. Flame spray pyrolysis has been shown to be a viable fast, one-step process for synthesis of nanoparticulate Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 . However, due to the rapid quenching that is integral to the process the crystallite size remain very small and non-uniform. To overcome this shortcoming a vertical flow tube furnace was used to increase the high-temperature residence time. This resulted in an increase in the crystallite size and crystallinity of the product. As a result of this increase the electrochemical performance of the Li 4 Ti 5 …
