Abstract:
Argyrodite solid electrolytes such as lithium phosphorus sulfur chloride (Li6PS5Cl) have recently attracted great attention due to their excellent lithium-ion transport properties, which are applicable to all-solid-state lithium batteries. In this study, we report the improved ionic conductivity of an argyrodite solid electrolyte, Li6PS5Cl, in all-solid-state lithium batteries via the co-doping of chlorine (Cl) and aluminum (Al) elements. Electrochemical analysis was conducted on the doped argyrodite structure of Li6PS5Cl, which revealed that the substitution of cations and anions greatly improved the ionic conductivity of solid electrolytes. The ionic conductivity of the Cl- and Al-doped Li6PS5Cl (Li5.4Al0.1PS4.7Cl1.3) electrolyte was 7.29 × 10-3 S cm-1 at room temperature, which is 4.7 times higher than that of Li6PS5Cl. The Arrhenius plot of the Li5.4Al0.1PS4.7Cl1.3 electrolyte further elucidated its low activation energy at 0.09 eV.

Molecular Solids
Molecular crystalline solids, such as ice, sucrose (table sugar), and iodine, are solids that are composed of neutral molecules as their constituent units. These molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, or hydrogen bonds, which...

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
