Abstract:While commercial Li-ion batteries offer the highest energy densities of current rechargeable battery technologies, their energy storage limit has almost been achieved. Therefore, there is considerable interest in Mg batteries, which could offer increased energy densities compared to Li-ion batteries if a high-voltage electrode material, such as a transition metal oxide, can be developed. However, there are currently very few oxide materials which have demonstrated reversible and efficient Mg 2+ insertion and e… Show more
“…28 Electrochemical analysis of the two materials under study was performed in conditions previously found to give high degrees of Mg insertion (110°C in 0.5 Mg(TFSI) 2 in PY 14 TFSI ionic liquid electrolyte). 23,24 For the first discharge/charge cycle of the V 2 O 5 sample, the behavior resembled that observed in bulk α-V 2 O 5 previously by Yoo et al, 23 i.e. a capacity of >200 mA h g −1 with a very large calculated voltage hysteresis of 1.68 V (Fig.…”

“…This irreversibility has been commonly observed in metal oxide electrodes with Mg electrolytes. 23,24 Fig. 4c and d also depicts integrated O K-edge X-ray absorption spectra acquired for pristine and electrochemically cycled V 2 O 5 -TiO 2 samples, compared with standard α-V 2 O 5 .…”
α-V2O5 has been extensively explored as a Mg2+ intercalation host with potential as a battery cathode, offering high theoretical capacities and potentials vs Mg2+/Mg. However, large voltage hysteresis is observed...

“…64 Typically, mobility is higher within sulphides than oxides, and indeed there are only a handful of oxide materials that report reversible Mg 2+ intercalation. [65][66][67] Experimental results indicate that Mg 2+ ions can be introduced into Y 2 Ti 2 S 2 O 5 via a solid-state reaction route at 300 C, to a stoichiometry of Mg 0.32 Y 2 Ti 2 S 2 O 5 . Mg 2+ ions were found to occupy 12-coordinated sites within the type I cavities.…”

Materials with Wadsley-Roth (WR) crystallographic shear and bronze-type structures display fast lithium-ion diffusion and are of interest as anode materials for high-power Li-ion batteries. Here we use density-functional-theory calculations to...
“…The use of CHFS enabled the production of nano-sized crystallites via highly supersaturating conditions and a short reaction time (residence time on the order of a few seconds), 25,26 and the process has previously produced a wide variety of high-performance nanosized electrode materials for Mg batteries, Liion batteries and supercapacitors. 17,[27][28][29][30][31] Experimental section…”
V2O5 is of interest as a Mg intercalation electrode material for Mg batteries, both in its thermodynamically stable layered polymorph (α-V2O5) and in its metastable tunnel structure (ζ-V2O5). However, such...
