Electrochemical Performance of Orthorhombic CsPbI3 Perovskite in Li-Ion Batteries

Abstract

A facile solution process was employed to prepare CsPbI3 as an anode material for Li-ion batteries. Rietveld refinement of the X-ray data confirms the orthorhombic phase of CsPbI3 at room temperature. As obtained from bond valence calculations, strained bonds between Pb and I are identified within PbI6 octahedral units. Morphological study shows that the as-prepared δ-CsPbI3 forms a nanorod-like structure. The XPS analysis confirm the presence of Cs (3d, 4d), Pb (4d, 4f, 5d) and I (3p,3d, 4d). The lithiation process involves both intercalation and conversion reactions, as confirmed by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and first-principles calculations. Impedance spectroscopy coupled with the distribution function of relaxation times identifies charge transfer processes due to Li metal foil and anode/electrolyte interfaces. An initial discharge capacity of 151 mAhg−1 is found to continuously increase to reach a maximum of ~275 mAhg−1 at 65 cycles, while it drops to ~240 mAhg−1 at 75 cycles and then slowly decreases to 235 mAhg−1 at 100 cycles. Considering the performance and structural integrity during electrochemical performance, δ-CsPbI3 is a promising material for future Li-ion battery (LIB) application.

Efficient Bifunctional Photoelectric Integrated Cathode for Solar Energy Conversion and Storage

“…Figure shows the XPS spectra of the P 2p and Pb 4f peaks. For Pb 4f , the high-valence component (HV, with a higher binding energy of 137.6 eV/142.5 eV) and the low-valence component (LV, with a lower binding energy of 135.0 eV/139.6 eV) are correlated to (PbPA) 0 and (PbPA) − , respectively. , The fabricated sample labeled “Initial” has the highest HV ratio (Figure a). After the first discharge, the LV ratio rises, indicating a transition from (PbPA) 0 to (PbPA) − (Figure b).…”

A study on Ti-doped Fe3O4 anode for Li ion battery using machine learning, electrochemical and distribution function of relaxation times (DFRTs) analyses

“…Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was performed for the CR2032-type coin cells using a PARSTAT MC 1000 electrochemistry workstation with an AC amplitude of 10 mV between 1 MHz to 0.01 Hz. The distribution function of relaxation times (DFRTs) was calculated by Impedance Spectroscopy Genetic Programming (ISGP) program 64 – 68 using the impedance spectra. The area of each peak is calculated separately by the package and then multiplied by maximum (un-normalized) resistivity to find the corresponding resistance.…”
