Boosting Room-Temperature Li Conductivity via strain in solid electrolytes for Lithium-ion Batteries
arXiv:1603.04830
Abstract
Room-temperature (RT) conductivity of most candidates for solid electrolytes of miniaturized lithium-ion batteries is still 1-2 orders of magnitude below commercial requirements, therefore several approaches are being pursued aiming the enhancement of such values. In this letter, we report for the first time direct theoretical evidence that epitaxial strain can be an efficient tool to reach this goal.
