摘要: Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with a dedicated force-field and our bond valence (BV) pathway analysis have been employed to reproduce explain the experimentally observed ultrafast Li+ transport in surface modified LixFePO4-δ as consequence of heterogeneous doping, i.e. redistribution vicinity interface between LixFePO4 pyrophosphate glass layer. Over usual working temperature range LIBs ion conductivity phase is enhanced by 2-3 orders magnitude, while enhancement practically vanishes for T > 700K. Simulations bulk experimental conductivities activation energy 0.57eV (for x ≈ 1). A layer-by-layer structurally relaxed multilayer systems indicates continuous variation mobility distance from maximum close interface, but diffusion rate remains (compared values) even at center simulated cathode material crystallites. Our BV migration dynamic local structure models shows that related extension unoccupied accessible regions. The change extent Li across overall content constitutes fast pseudo-capacitive (dis)charging contribution.
