All-solid-state batteries based on fast Li+ conducting solid electrolytes such as Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) give perspective on safe, non-inflammable, and temperature tolerant energy storage. Despite the promise, ceramic processing of whole battery assemblies reaching close to theoretical capacities and finding optimal strategies to process large-scale and low cost battery cells remains a challenge. Here, we tackle these issues and report on a solid-state battery cell composed of Li4Ti5O12 / c-Li6.25Al0.25La3Zr2O12 / metallic Li delivering capacities around 70–75 Ah/kg with reversible cycling at a rate of 8 A/kg (for 2.5–1.0 V, 95 °C). A key aspect towards the increase in capacity and Li+ transfer at the solid electrolyte-electrode interface is found to be the intimate embedding of grains and their connectivity, which can be implemented by the isostatic pressing of cells during their preparation. We suggest that simple adaption of ceramic processing, such as the applied pressure during processing, strongly alters the electrochemical performance by assuring good grain contacts at the electrolyte-electrode interface. Among the garnet-type all-solid-state ceramic battery assemblies in the field, considerably improved capacities and cycling properties are demonstrated for Li4Ti5O12 / c-Li6.25Al0.25La3Zr2O12 / metallic Li pressed cells, giving new perspectives on cheap ceramic processing and up-scalable garnet-based all-solid-state batteries. 相似文献
A technique has been devised for determination of the error and interference immunity of the analog- to-digital conversion path in automatic control systems using moving digital averaging. The estimates of the errors and interference immunity of the analog-to-digital conversion path under the moving averaging have been analyzed and compared with the corresponding estimates obtained under averaging within the time-sampling interval and in the absence of averaging. Effective analytical expressions have been obtained to analyze the estimates of the errors and interference immunity of the analog-to-digital conversion of stationary random signals and additive interference. The calculated errors for various differentiable and nondifferentiable random signals given by autocorrelation functions have been analyzed. The influence of the number of the averaged readouts of the random signal and the time-sampling interval on the estimates of the errors and interference immunity have been investigated. The advantage of the moving averaging over the averaging within the time-sampling interval has been demonstrated. The calculated ratios allow, with the known signal and interference models and preset permissible-error estimate, selecting the parameters of the conversion path, i.e., the time-sampling interval, the number of the readouts of the converted sum of the random signal and interference under the averaging, and the effective number of bits of the analog-to-digital converter, under the conditions when the lag error cannot be excluded and the latter is excluded. The equations that allow the evaluation of the interference immunity of the conversion path are provided. 相似文献
The purpose of the paper was to compare two well-known model selection strategies, the so-called Specific-to-General, Stge, and General-to-Specific, Gets, in a context of spatial SUR models. The two strategies use a battery of misspecification tests obtained in a maximum likelihood framework. The robust tests to local misspecification errors in the alternative hypothesis and the common factor test have been developed with this purpose. The paper includes a Monte Carlo experiment to compare their performance in a situation of small sample sizes. The results are mixed: Both alternatives work well under ideal conditions, but their efficiency deteriorates for different departures such as non-normality or endogeneity. All in all, Stge appears to be slightly preferable although our impression is that the two are complementary and can be used in common. The paper finishes with an application to the case of productivity for a large set of European regions. 相似文献
The present investigations focused on the thermal oxidation of two variants of MAR-M246 alloy having the same contents of Ta and Nb in at. pct, considering the effects of total replacement of Ta by Nb. The alloys were produced by investment casting using high purity elements in induction furnace under vacuum atmosphere. The alloys were oxidized pseudo-isothermally at 800 °C, 900 °C and 1000 °C up to 1000 hours under lab air. Protective oxidation products growing on the surface of the oxidized samples were mainly Al2O3, Cr2O3. Other less protective oxide such as spinels (NiCr2O4 and CoCr2O4) and TiO2 were also detected as oxidation products. The conventional alloy exhibited slight internal oxidation at 800 °C and an enhanced resistance at 900 °C and 1000 °C. The Nb-modified alloy presented an exacerbated internal oxidation and nitridation at 900 °C and 1000 °C and an enhanced resistance at 800 °C. At 1000 °C, Nb-modified alloy was particularly affected by excessive spalling as the main damage mechanisms. From a kinetic point of view, both alloys exhibit the same behavior at 800 °C and 900 °C, with kp values typical of alumina forming alloys (2 × 10−14 to 3.6 × 10−13 g2 cm−4 s−1). However, Ta modified alloys exhibited superior oxidation resistance at 1000 °C when compared to the Nb modified alloy due to better adherence of the protective oxide scale.
Oriented materials are of great importance, but their formation is rarely described. Here, nine Al/Al2O3 systems were designed to identify the dominant factors. Electron back-scattered diffraction indicates that the new Al crystal(s) with one or multiple orientation(s) can be stimulated by one single-crystal Al2O3 substrates. Synchrotron radiation diffraction shows that the preferred orientation(s) is/are determined based on the initial stage of the liquid–solid transition. The nonpreferred orientation can be suppressed through competition.
