Electrochemical Stability of Li₁₀GeP₂S₁₂ and Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ Solid Electrolytes

DOI: 10.1002/aenm.201501590 electrochemical stability window, and (3) chemical compatibility with the anode and cathode. In the past few years, major advances have been achieved in increasing the Li ionic conductivity of the solid electrolytes. The state-of-the-art solid electrolyte materials, such as Li-garnet Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 (LLZO) and Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 (LGPS) have achieved an ionic conduc...

Synthesis and Characterization of Tb[N(CN)₂]₃·2H₂O and Eu[N(CN)₂]₃·2H₂O: Two New Luminescent Rare-Earth Dicyanamides

Two new rare-earth dicyanamides, namely, Tb[N(CN)2]3‚2H2O and Eu[N(CN)2]3‚2H2O, have been prepared by ion exchange in aqueous solution, followed by evaporation of the solvent at room temperature. The structures of both compounds have been solved and refined from single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction data, respectively. The two compounds are isostructural and are built up from irregular qu...

In Situ Observation of Dehydration-Induced Phase Transformation from Na₂Nb₂O₆H₂O to NaNbO₃

We have monitored the phase transformation from a Sandia octahedral molecular sieve Na2Nb2O6−H2O to a piezoelectric NaNbO3 nanowire through in situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements at high temperatures. After dehydration at 288 °C, the Na2Nb2O6−H2O becomes significantly destabilized and transforms into NaNbO3 with the increase of time. The phase tr...
