    Binder-free V2O5 cathode for high energy density rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries
    (2020) Diem, Achim M.; Fenk, Bernhard; Bill, Joachim; Burghard, Zaklina
    Nowadays, research on electrochemical storage systems moves into the direction of post-lithium-ion batteries, such as aluminum-ion batteries, and the exploration of suitable materials for such batteries. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) is one of the most promising host materials for the intercalation of multivalent ions. Here, we report on the fabrication of a binder-free and self-supporting V2O5 micrometer-thick paper-like electrode material and its use as the cathode for rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries. The electrical conductivity of the cathode was significantly improved by a novel in-situ and self-limiting copper migration approach into the V2O5 structure. This process takes advantage of the dissolution of Cu by the ionic liquid-based electrolyte, as well as the presence of two different accommodation sites in the nanostructured V2O5 available for aluminum-ions and the migrated Cu. Furthermore, the advanced nanostructured cathode delivered a specific discharge capacity of up to ~170 mAh g-1 and the reversible intercalation of Al3+ for more than 500 cycles with a high Coulomb efficiency reaching nearly 100%. The binder-free concept results in an energy density of 74 Wh kg-1, which shows improved energy density in comparison to the so far published V2O5-based cathodes. Our results provide valuable insights for the future design and development of novel binder-free and self-supporting electrodes for rechargeable multivalent metal-ion batteries associating a high energy density, cycling stability, safety and low cost.

    Asymmetric Rh diene catalysis under confinement : isoxazole ring‐contraction in mesoporous solids
    (2024) Marshall, Max; Dilruba, Zarfishan; Beurer, Ann‐Katrin; Bieck, Kira; Emmerling, Sebastian; Markus, Felix; Vogler, Charlotte; Ziegler, Felix; Fuhrer, Marina; Liu, Sherri S. Y.; Kousik, Shravan R.; Frey, Wolfgang; Traa, Yvonne; Bruckner, Johanna R.; Plietker, Bernd; Buchmeiser, Michael R.; Ludwigs, Sabine; Naumann, Stefan; Atanasova, Petia; Lotsch, Bettina V.; Zens, Anna; Laschat, Sabine
    Covalent immobilization of chiral dienes in mesoporous solids for asymmetric heterogeneous catalysis is highly attractive. In order to study confinement effects in bimolecular vs monomolecular reactions, a series of pseudo‐C2‐symmetrical tetrahydropentalenes was synthesized and immobilized via click reaction on different mesoporous solids (silica, carbon, covalent organic frameworks) and compared with homogeneous conditions. Two types of Rh‐catalyzed reactions were studied: (a) bimolecular nucleophilic 1,2‐additions of phenylboroxine to N‐tosylimine and (b) monomolecular isomerization of isoxazole to 2H‐azirne. Polar support materials performed better than non‐polar ones. Under confinement, bimolecular reactions showed decreased yields, whereas yields in monomolecular reactions were only little affected. Regarding enantioselectivity the opposite trend was observed, i. e. effective enantiocontrol for bimolecular reactions but only little control for monomolecular reactions was found.

    Towards recycling of LLZO solid electrolyte exemplarily performed on LFP/LLZO/LTO cells
    (2022) Ali Nowroozi, Mohammad; Iqbal Waidha, Aamir; Jacob, Martine; Aken, Peter A. van; Predel, Felicitas; Ensinger, Wolfgang; Clemens, Oliver
    All‐solid‐state lithium ion batteries (ASS‐LIBs) are promising due to their safety and higher energy density as compared to that of conventional LIBs. Over the next few decades, tremendous amounts of spent ASS‐LIBs will reach the end of their cycle life and would require recycling in order to address the waste management issue along with reduced exploitation of rare elements. So far, only very limited studies have been conducted on recycling of ASS‐LIBS. Herein, we investigate the recycling of the Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) solid‐state electrolyte in a LiFePO4/LLZO/Li4Ti5O12 system using a hydrometallurgical approach. Our results show that different concentration of the leaching solutions can significantly influence the final product of the recycling process. However, it was possible to recover relatively pure La2O3 and ZrO2 to re‐synthesize the cubic LLZO phase, whose high purity was confirmed by XRD measurements.

    Insights into the first multi-transition-metal containing Ruddlesden-Popper-type cathode for all-solid-state fluoride ion batteries
    (2024) Vanita, Vanita; Waidha, Aamir Iqbal; Vasala, Sami; Puphal, Pascal; Schoch, Roland; Glatzel, Pieter; Bauer, Matthias; Clemens, Oliver
    Promising cathode materials for fluoride-ion batteries (FIBs) are 3d transition metal containing oxides with Ruddlesden-Popper-type structure. So far, the multi-elemental compositions have not been investigated, but it could alternate the electrochemical performance similar to what has been found for cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries. In this study, we investigate RP type La2Ni0.75Co0.25O4.08 as an intercalation-based active cathode material for all-solid-state FIBs. We determine the structural changes of La2Ni0.75Co0.25O4.08 during fluoride intercalation/de-intercalation by ex situ X-ray diffraction, which showed that F- insertion leads to transformation of the parent phase to three different phases. Changes in the Ni and Co oxidation states and coordination environment were examined by X-ray absorption spectroscopy and magnetic measurements in order to understand the complex reaction behaviour of the phases in detail, showing that the two transition metals behave differently in the charging and discharging process. Under optimized operating conditions, a cycle life of 120 cycles at a critical cut-off capacity of 40 mA h g-1 against Pb/PbF2 was obtained, which is one of the highest observed for intercalation electrode materials in FIBs so far. The average coulombic efficiencies ranged from 85% to 90%. Thus, La2Ni0.75Co0.25O4.08 could be a promising candidate for cycling-stable high-energy cathode materials for all-solid-state FIBs.

    Optimizing the plasma oxidation of aluminum gate electrodes for ultrathin gate oxides in organic transistors
    (2021) Geiger, Michael; Hagel, Marion; Reindl, Thomas; Weis, Jürgen; Weitz, R. Thomas; Solodenko, Helena; Schmitz, Guido; Zschieschang, Ute; Klauk, Hagen; Acharya, Rachana
    A critical requirement for the application of organic thin-film transistors (TFTs) in mobile or wearable applications is low-voltage operation, which can be achieved by employing ultrathin, high-capacitance gate dielectrics. One option is a hybrid dielectric composed of a thin film of aluminum oxide and a molecular self-assembled monolayer in which the aluminum oxide is formed by exposure of the surface of the aluminum gate electrode to a radio-frequency-generated oxygen plasma. This work investigates how the properties of such dielectrics are affected by the plasma power and the duration of the plasma exposure. For various combinations of plasma power and duration, the thickness and the capacitance of the dielectrics, the leakage-current density through the dielectrics, and the current–voltage characteristics of organic TFTs in which these dielectrics serve as the gate insulator have been evaluated. The influence of the plasma parameters on the surface properties of the dielectrics, the thin-film morphology of the vacuum-deposited organic-semiconductor films, and the resulting TFT characteristics has also been investigated.

    Realization of a classical Ruddlesden Popper type bilayer nickelate in Sr3Ni2-xAlxO7-δ with unusual Ni4+
    (2024) Yilmaz, Hasan; Küster, Kathrin; Starke, Ulrich; Clemens, Oliver; Isobe, Masahiko; Puphal, Pascal
    The discovery of 80 K superconductivity in bilayer La3Ni2O7 at pressures greater than 14 GPa presents a unique opportunity to study a novel class of high-temperature superconductors. Therefore, other bilayer nickelates following the classical (T4+) Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) series of Sr3Ni2O7 would present an interesting new candidate. In this work, we study the stabilization of RP n = 2 phase in Sr3Ni2-xAlxO7-δ, via floating zone growth of crystals. With powder and single-crystal XRD, we study the stability range of the RP-type phase. Our Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and gas extraction studies reveal a remarkably high oxidation state of Ni4+ stabilized by chemical strain from Al. The obtained black crystals are insulating in transport and show a magnetic transition around 12 K.
