Happy to work with Lotsch Group!

Structure and Transport Properties in the Pseudobinary Phase System Li4SiS4–Li4SnS4 Thio-lithium superionic conductors (thio-LISICONs) are a family of promising solid electrolyte materials for potential applications in solid-state batteries. The orthorhombic polymorph of the thio-LIS...

Check out our new paper just published together with the Canepa group. 🎉📝

We took a deep dive into the crystal structure of Li4SiS4.🔍 This helped us investigate how mixing silicon with tin in Li4SiS4–Li4SnS4 affects the structure and ionic conductivity. 🧩

Obtaining V2(PO4)3 by sodium extraction from single-phase NaxV2(PO4)3 (1 < x < 3) positive electrode materials - Nature Materials Single-phase NaxV2(PO4)3 compositions obtained by annealing mixtures of Na3V2(PO4)3 and NaV2(PO4)3 enable the complete electrochemical extraction of Na+ through the activation of the V4+/V5+ couple. T...

Thanks! Nice to see this citing the US effort on this front, ESRA energystoragera.org and also the advancements made in our recent Nature Materials on Nasicon Electrode (not layered) www.nature.com/articles/s41...
