Abstract
En 中文
High-entropy ceramics are attracting large interest because of their unique materials properties. Nevertheless, the effect of entropy on the lithium transport remains largely elusive. Here, we report, for the first time, about medium-and high-entropy polyanionic lithium superionic conductors crystallizing in the F-43m space group and adopting the so-called argyrodite structure. The Li6PS5[Cl0.33Br0.33I0.33], Li6P[S2.5Se2.5][Cl0.33Br0.33I0.33], and Li-6.5[Ge0.5P0.5][S2.5Se2.5]-[Cl0.33Br0.33I0.33] materials were structurally characterized using complementary synchrotron and neutron scattering techniques in combination with P-31 magic-angle spinning (MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. We show that, in contrast to other high-entropy ceramics, an unequal distribution of elements over the respective crystallographic sites occurs in these materials. Using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Li-7 pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR spectroscopy, we demonstrate that introducing entropy (compositional disorder) marginally affects the room-temperature ionic conductivity (similar to 10(-3) S cm(-1)) but instead lowers the activation energy for conduction to 0.22 eV. Our results emphasize the possibility of increasing entropy in polyanionic materials, thereby opening up compositional space for the search of Li-ion conductors with unprecedented properties.
