文摘The absence of efficient ion transport pathways in composite solid-state electrolytes(CSEs)usually results in low ionic conductivity,which remains a great challenge for developing solid-state lithiummetal batteries(SLMBs).Herein,we report achieving accelerated Li^(+)conduction in CSEs by a novel activation of the interfacial dipole layer.Polycationic ionic liquids and polyacrylonitrile with highly polar functional groups(-C≡N)are utilized to modulate the interfacial dipole layer in MOF-based CSEs,facilitating long-range pathways for the connectivity of Li^(+)conduction and enhancing rapid transport kinetics.The as-synthesized CSEs exhibit a high ionic conductivity of 0.59 mS cm^(-1)and a lithium transfer number of 0.85.The assembled SLMBs(Li/CSE/LiNi_(0.9)Co_(0.05)Mn_(0.05)O_(2))delivered a high-capacity retention of 88.7%with a minimal discharge voltage attenuation of 17.1 mV after 500 cycles(0.03 mV per cycle)at0.5 C.This work offers an effective approach to creating interpenetrating lithium-ion transport pathways with rapid ion transport kinetics for solid-state electrolytes,thereby advancing the development of solidstate lithium metal batteries.

文摘To improve the fault diagnosis accuracy of a PV grid-connected inverter,a PV grid-connected inverter data diagnosis method based on MPA-VMD-PSO-BiLSTM is proposed.Firstly,unlike the traditional VMD algorithm which relies on manual experience to set parameters(e.g.,noise tolerance,penalty parameter,number of decompositions),this paper achieves adaptive optimization of parameters through MPA algorithmto avoid the problemof feature information loss caused by manual parameter tuning,and adopts the improved VMD algorithm for feature extraction of DC-side voltage data signals of PV-grid-connected inverters;and then,adopts the PSO algorithm for theThen,the PSO algorithm is used to optimize the optimal batch size,the number of nodes in the hidden layer and the learning rate of the BiLSTM network,which significantly improves the model’s ability to capture the long-term dependent features of the PV inverter’s timing signals,to construct the PV grid-connected inverter prediction model of PSO-BiLSTM,and predict the capacitance value of the PVgrid-connected inverter.Finally,diagnostic experiments are carried out based on the expected capacitance value and the capacitance failure criterion.The results showthat compared with the traditional VMD algorithm,the MPA-optimised VMD improves the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of the signal decomposition from 28.5 to 33.2 dB(16.5%improvement).After combining with the PSO-BiLSTM model,the mean absolute percentage error(MAPE)of the fault diagnosis is reduced to 1.31%,and the coefficient of determination(R2)is up to 0.99.It is concluded that the present method has excellent diagnostic performance of PV grid-connected inverter data signals and effectively improves the accuracy of PV grid-connected inverter diagnosis.

文摘This article introduces a novel 20 V radiation-hardened high-voltage metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor(MOSFET)driver with an optimized input circuit and a drain-surrounding-source(DSS)structure.The input circuit of a conventional inverter consists of a thick-gate-oxide n-type MOSFET(NMOS).These conventional drivers can tolerate a total ionizing dose(TID)of up to 100 krad(Si).In contrast,the proposed comparator input circuit uses both a thick-gate-oxide p-type MOSFET(PMOS)and thin-gate-oxide NMOS to offer a high input voltage and higher TID tolerance.Because the thick-gate-oxide PMOS and thin-gate-oxide NMOS collectively provide better TID tolerance than the thick-gate-oxide NMOS,the circuit exhibits enhanced TID tolerance of>300 krad(Si).Simulations and experimental date indicate that the DSS structure reduces the probability of unwanted parasitic bipolar junction transistor activation,yielding a better single-event effect tolerance of over 81.8 MeVcm^(2)mg^(-1).The innovative strategy proposed in this study involves circuit and layout design optimization,and does not require any specialized process flow.Hence,the proposed circuit can be manufactured using common commercial 0.35μm BCD processes.

文摘Expanding the cutoff voltage of layered oxide cathodes for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)is crucial for overcoming their existing energy density limitations.However,cationic/anodic redox-triggered multiple phase transitions and unfavorable interfacial side reactions accelerate capacity and voltage decay.Herein,we present a straightforward melting plus reactive wetting strategy using H_(3)BO_(3)for surface modification of O_(3)-type Na_(0.9)Cu_(0.12)Ni_(0.33)Mn_(0.4)Ti_(0.15)O_(2)(CNMT).The transformation of H_(3)BO_(3)from solid to liquid under mild heating facilitates the uniform dispersion and complete surface coverage of CNMT particles.By neutralizing the residual alkali and extracting Na^(+)from the CNMT lattice,H_(3)BO_(3)forms a multifunctional Na_(2)B_(2)O_(5)-dominated layer on the CNMT surface.This Na_(x)B_(y)O_(z)(NBO)layer plays a positive role in providing low-barrier Na^(+)transport channels,suppressing phase transitions,and minimizing the generation of O_(2)/CO_(2)gases and resistive byproducts.As a result,at a charge cutoff voltage of 4.5 V,the NBO-coated CNMT delivers a high discharge capacity of 149,1 mAh g^(-1)at 10 mA g^(-1)and exhibits excellent cycling stability at 100 mA g^(-1)over 200 cycles with a higher capacity retention than that of pristine CNMT(86,4%vs,62.1%).This study highlights the effectiveness of surface modification using lowmelting-point solid acids,with potential applications for other layered oxide cathode materials to achieve stable high-voltage cycling.This proposed strategy opens new avenues for the construction of highquality coatings for high-voltage layered oxide cathodes in SIBs.
文摘Lithium-ion capacitors(LICs)combine the high power dens-ity of electrical double-layer capacitors with the high energy density of lithium-ion batteries.However,they face practical limitations due to the narrow operating voltage window of their activated carbon(AC)cathodes.We report a scalable thermal treatment strategy to develop high-voltage-tolerant AC cathodes.Through controlled thermal treatment of commer-cial activated carbon(Raw-AC)under a H_(2)/Ar atmosphere at 400-800℃,the targeted reduction of degradation-prone functional groups can be achieved while preserving the critical pore structure and increasing graph-itic microcrystalline ordering.The AC treated at 400℃(HAC-400)had a significant increase in specific capacity(96.0 vs.75.1 mAh/g at 0.05 A/g)and better rate capability(61.1 vs.36.1 mAh/g at 5 A/g)in half-cell LICs,along with an 83.5%capacity retention over 7400 cycles within an extended voltage range of 2.0-4.2 V in full-cell LICs.Scalability was demonstrated by a 120 g batch production,enabling fabrication of pouch-type LICs with commercial hard carbon anodes that delivered a higher energy density of 28.3 Wh/kg at 1 C,and a peak power density of 12.1 kW/kg compared to devices using raw AC.This simple,industry-compatible approach may be used for producing ad-vanced cathode materials for practical high-performance LICs.

文摘Uneven power distribution,transient voltage,and frequency deviations are observed in the photovoltaic storage hybrid inverter during the switching between grid-connected and island modes.In response to these issues,this paper proposes a grid-connected/island switching control strategy for photovoltaic storage hybrid inverters based on the modified chimpanzee optimization algorithm.The proposed strategy incorporates coupling compensation and power differentiation elements based on the traditional droop control.Then,it combines the angular frequency and voltage amplitude adjustments provided by the phase-locked loop-free pre-synchronization control strategy.Precise pre-synchronization is achieved by regulating the virtual current to zero and aligning the photovoltaic storage hybrid inverter with the grid voltage.Additionally,two novel operators,learning and emotional behaviors are introduced to enhance the optimization precision of the chimpanzee algorithm.These operators ensure high-precision and high-reliability optimization of the droop control parameters for photovoltaic storage hybrid inverters.A Simulink model was constructed for simulation analysis,which validated the optimized control strategy’s ability to evenly distribute power under load transients.This strategy effectively mitigated transient voltage and current surges during mode transitions.Consequently,seamless and efficient switching between gridconnected and island modes was achieved for the photovoltaic storage hybrid inverter.The enhanced energy utilization efficiency,in turn,offers robust technical support for grid stability.

文摘High-voltage solid-state lithium-ion batteries(SSLIBs)have attracted considerable research attention in recent years due to their high-energy-density and superior safety characteristics.However,the integration of high-voltage cathodes with solid electrolytes(SEs)presents multiple challenges,including the formation of high-impedance layers from spontaneous chemical reactions,electrochemical instability,insufficient interfacial contact,and lattice expansion.These issues significantly impair battery performance and potentially lead to battery failure,thus impeding the commercialization of high-voltage SSLIBs.The incorporation of fluorides,known for their robust bond strength and high free energy of formation,has emerged as an effective strategy to address these challenges.Fluorinated electrolytes and electrode/electrolyte interfaces have been demonstrated to significantly influence the reaction reversibility/kinetics,safety,and stability of rechargeable batteries,particularly under high voltage.This review summarizes recent advancements in fluorination treatment for high-voltage SEs,focusing on solid polymer electrolytes(SPEs),inorganic solid electrolytes(ISEs),and composite solid electrolytes(CSEs),along with the performance enhancements these strategies afford.This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the structure-property relationships,the characteristics of fluorinated interfaces,and the application of fluorinated SEs in high-voltage SSLIBs.Further,the impacts of residual moisture and the challenges of fluorinated SEs are discussed.Finally,the review explores potential future directions for the development of fluorinated SSLIBs.

文摘Immense attention has been focused on developing supercapacitors in the field of energy storage by virtue of their exceptional power density,extended cycling stability and operational safety.However,traditional liquid electrolytes pose severe challenges in response to leakage,high volatility and low electrochemical stability issues.To address these problems,we have developed a novel composite polymer membrane for gel polymer electrolytes(GPEs).This membrane features an internal fibrous framework composed of shape-memory polymers,while surface dielectric layers of PVDF-HFP cross-linked with modified TiO_(2)nanoparticles are constructed on both sides of the framework.This configuration modulates the Stern layer potential gradient and diffuse layer ionic distribution through dielectric polarization,thereby suppressing electrolyte decomposition at high voltages,mitigating side reactions and facilitating ionic conduction.The resultant quasi-solid-state supercapacitor demonstrates excellent electrochemical stability at a voltage of 3.5 V,achieving an energy density of 43.87 Wh kg^(-1),with a high-power density of 22.66 kW kg^(-1)along with exceptional cyclic stability and mechanical flexibility.The synergistic structural design offers a safe and efficient energy harvesting solution for wearable electronic devices and portable energy storage systems.

文摘Enhancing the energy density of lithium-ion batteries through high-voltage cathodes holds great pro-mise.However,traditional carbonate-based electrolytes face significant challenges due to limited oxida-tive stability and poor compatibility with high-nickel materials.This study introduces a novel electrolyte that combines bis(triethoxysilyl)methane(DMSP)as the sole solvent with lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide(LiFSI)as the lithium salt.This formulation significantly improves the stability of LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.1)Mn_(0.1)O_(2)(NCM811)cathodes and graphite anodes.The capacity retention of the NCM811 elec-trode increases from 5%to 95%after 1000 cycles at 1 C(3.0-4.5 V),while that of the graphite anode is improved from 22%to 92%after 400 cycles at 0.2 C(0.005-3.0 V).The NCM811//graphite pouch cell exhibits enhanced retention,rising from 12%to 66%at 25℃and from 3%to 65%at 60℃after 300 cycles at 0.2 C.Spectroscopic characterization and theoretical calculations reveal that the steric hindrance of the Si-O-CH_(3)groups in DMSP creates a weakly solvating structure,promoting the formation of Lit^(+)-FSI^(-)ion pairs and aggregation clusters,which enriches the electrode interphase with LiF,Li_(3)N,and Li_(2)SO_(3).Furthermore,DMSP with abundant Si-O effectively enhances the elasticity of the interphase layer,scav-enging harmful substances such as HF and suppressing gas evolution and transition metal dissolution.The simplicity of the DMSP-based electrolyte formulation,coupled with its superior performance,ensures scalability for large-scale manufacturing and practical application in the high-voltage battery.This work provides critical insights into improving interfacial chemistry and addressing compatibility issues in high-voltageNi-rich cathodes.

文摘Solid-state batteries(SSBs) are highly attractive on account of their high energy density and good safety.In high-voltage and high-current conditions,however,the interface reactions,structural changes,and decomposition of the electrolyte impede the transmission of lithium ions in all-solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs),significantly reducing the charging and discharging capacity and cycling stability of the battery and therefore restricting its practical applications.The main content of review is to conduct an in-depth analysis of the existing problems of solid-state batteries from the aspects of interface reactions,material failure,ion migration,and dendrite growth,and points out the main factors influencing the electrochemical performance of ASSLBs.Additionally,the compatibility and ion conduction mechanisms between polymer electrolytes,inorganic solid electrolytes,and composite electrolytes and the electrode materials are discussed.Furthermore,the perspectives of electrode materials,electrolyte properties,and interface modification are summarized and prospected,providing new optimization directions for the future commercialization of high-voltage solid-state electrolytes.

文摘Li/Mn-rich layered oxide(LMR)cathode active materials offer remarkably high specific discharge capacity(>250 mAh g^(-1))from both cationic and anionic redox.The latter necessitates harsh charging conditions to high cathode potentials(>4.5 V vs Li|Li^(+)),which is accompanied by lattice oxygen release,phase transformation,voltage fade,and transition metal(TM)dissolution.In cells with graphite anode,TM dissolution is particularly detrimental as it initiates electrode crosstalk.Lithium difluorophosphate(LiDFP)is known for its pivotal role in suppressing electrode crosstalk through TM scavenging.In LMR‖graphite cells charged to an upper cutoff voltage(UCV)of 4.5 V,effective TM scavenging effects of LiDFP are observed.In contrast,for an UCV of 4.7 V,the scavenging effects are limited due to more severe TM dissolution compared an UCV of 4.5V.Given the saturation in solubility of the TM scavenging agents,which are LiDFP decomposition products,e.g.,PO_(4)^(3-) and PO_(3)F^(2-),higher concentrations of the LiDFP as precursor"cannot enhance the amount of scavenging species,they rather start to precipitate and damage the anode.

文摘Lithium-ion batteries are essential for modern energy storage,yet achieving simultaneous high-temperature and high-voltage operation remains challenging due to interfacial compatibility.In this study,we introduce a polyetherimide(PEI)-polyimide(PI)functional coating on the separator that enhances wettability,thermal stability,and mechanical strength,while markedly improving cathode stability under harsh conditions.By integrating theoretical calculations with experimental validation,we demonstrate that the PEI/PI coating modulates the solvation structure of lithium-ions,thereby facilitating the interfacial desolvation process.More importantly,the PEI/PI layer regulates electrolyte decomposition at the interface,promoting the formation of a uniform and thermally stable cathode-electrolyte interphase.Consequently,LiCoO_(2)cathodes exhibit improved cycling performance at 60°C.Overall,this work underscores the pivotal role of separator coatings in governing interfacial chemistry and provides a viable strategy for designing high-performance lithium-ion batteries capable of enduring both high temperatures and high.

文摘Weakly solvating electrolyte(WSE)demonstrates superior compatibility with lithium(Li)metal batteries(LMBs).However,its application in fast-charging high-voltage LMBs is challenging.Here,we propose a diluent modified WSE for fast-charging high-voltage LMBs,which is formed by adding diluent of 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl-2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl ether(TTE)into the tetrahydropyran(THP)based WSE.A relatively loose solvation structure is formed due to the formation of weak hydrogen bond between TTE and THP,which accelerates the de-solvation kinetics of Li~+.Besides,more anions are involved in solvation structure in the presence of TTE,yielding inorganic-rich interphases with improved stability.Li(30μm)||Li Ni_(0.5)Co_(0.2)Mn_(0.3)O_(2)(4.1 mAh/cm^(2))batteries with the TTE modified WSE retain over 64%capacity retention after 175 cycles under high rate of 3 C and high-voltage of 4.5 V,much better than that with pure THP based WSE.This work points out that the combination of diluent with weakly solvating solvent is a promising approach to develop high performance electrolytes for fast-charging high-voltage LMBs.

文摘Poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO)solid electrolytes hold great promise in all-solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs)with high-energy and safety capabilities.However,the PEO electrolyte is hardly resistant to degrade electrochemically at high voltages(>4 V)in ASSLBs.Herein,we design and prepare a highly efficient and stable PEO-based solid electrolyte(denoted as PEO-L/DTPEO)applied to high-voltage ASSLBs,in which the Li_(6.4)La_(3)Zr_(1.4)Ta_(0.6)O_(12)(LLZTO)-containing PEO(PEO-L)serves as a bulk of the electrolyte and the PEO with dualsalts(LiDFOB and high-concentration LiTFSI)forms an ultrathin coating layer(DT-PEO)covering on PEO-L.With 3%coating layer,the PEO-L/DT-PEO electrolyte exhibits an enhanced decomposition potential(>4.9 V vs.Li/Li^(+))originating from the high concentration of LiTFSI as well as renders Al foil current collector high anticorrosion by the introduction of LiDFOB.Upon coupling with highvoltage NCM811 cathode,the DT-PEO efficiently suppresses the interfacial degradation kinetics between electrolyte and cathode,and slows down the irreversible phase change of NCM811.The assembled PEO-L/DT-PEObased Li/NCM811 battery exhibits an excellent cycling stability of remaining 63.0%after 400 cycles at a cutoff voltage of 4.2 V as well as an initial discharge specific capacity of 164.5 mAh g^(-1)at a rate of 0.4C.This work offers a facile and feasible strategy to overcoming interface decomposition of the PEO electrolyte matching perfectly with high-voltage cathode for high-performance ASSLBs.
