Artificial magnetic dipole arrays arranged on a square lattice exhibit a fascinating variety and complexity of configurations. Among the 16 possible configurations, six fulfill the spin ice rule of two dipoles pointing into a vertex and two point out. We present experimental realizations of magnetic dipole arrays and discuss the remanent state as well as the magnetization reversal in an external field.

Nido-Hydroborate-Based Electrolytes for All-Solid-State Lithium Batteries

Seyed Hosein Payandeh, Daniel Rentsch, Zbigniew Lodziana, Ryo Asakura, Laurent Bigler, Radovan Cerny, Corsin Battaglia, Arndt Remhof

Summary: This study introduces hydroborate-based solid electrolytes for high voltage all-solid-state sodium batteries and proposes the cost-effective building block LiB11H14 nido-hydroborate for lithium systems with high ionic conductivity. Strategies to improve stability by modifying chemical structure are discussed, and compatibility with metallic anodes is demonstrated through galvanostatic cycling. Additionally, the electrolyte Li-2(B11H14)(CB11H12) shows promising performance in a proof-of-concept half cell with TiS2 cathode.

Summary: Rare earth borohydrides RE(BH4)(3) have been studied for energy storage, luminescence, and magnetic applications. The investigation on praseodymium borohydride Pr((BH4)-B-11)(3) with B-11 isotope showed a volume contraction phase transition upon heating to 493 K, which persisted upon cooling at room temperature. Additionally, the vibrational analysis indicated a constant B-H bond length during the structural phase transition.

Thermal and Electrochemical Interface Compatibility of a Hydroborate Solid Electrolyte with 3 V-Class Cathodes for All-Solid-State Sodium Batteries

Ryo Asakura, Leo Duchene, Seyedhosein Payandeh, Daniel Rentsch, Hans Hagemann, Corsin Battaglia, Arndt Remhof

Summary: The hydroborate solid electrolyte Na-4(B12H12)(B10H10) shows high thermal compatibility with 3V-class cathode active materials, especially with NaCrO2, indicating potential for highly safe all-solid-state batteries with a wide operating temperature range. The experimentally determined thermal decomposition onset temperatures surpass those of sulfide and selenide solid electrolytes, highlighting the need for understanding the decomposition pathways of hydroborates for more accurate theoretical predictions.

Study of the Temperature- and Pressure-Dependent Structural Properties of Alkali Hydrido-closo-borate Compounds

Romain Moury, Zbigniew Lodziana, Arndt Remhof, Leo Duchene, Elsa Roedern, Angelina Gigante, Hans Hagemann

Summary: This work investigates the structural and mechanical properties of alkali hydrido-closo-(car)borates, a promising class of solid-state electrolyte materials, using high-pressure and temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction experiments combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The study reveals low shear moduli and high coefficients of thermal expansion for these compounds, as well as pressure-induced and temperature-induced phase transitions. The findings suggest potential benefits for manufacturing and stable cycling of all-solid-state batteries.

Elucidating the pressure-induced enhancement of ionic conductivity in sodium closo-hydroborate electrolytes for all-solid-state batteries

Yuanye Huang, Radovan Cerny, Corsin Battaglia, Arndt Remhof

Summary: Hydroborates are investigated as solid electrolytes for all-solid-state batteries, and the impact of pressure on their crystal structure and ionic conductivity is studied. Different ratios of Na2B10H10 and Na2B12H12 result in different crystal phases. Applying pressure to densify the powder leads to a partial phase transformation into a body-centered cubic (BCC) phase. The sodium-ion conductivity increases with increasing BCC content for both ratios.

Li4B10H10B12H12 as solid electrolyte for solid-state lithium batteries

Andrea Garcia, Gian Mueller, Radovan Cerny, Daniel Rentsch, Ryo Asakura, Corsin Battaglia, Arndt Remhof

Summary: This study demonstrates the feasibility of using hydridoborates as solid electrolytes for solid-state lithium batteries. By cation exchange and ball milling, Li2B10H10 and Li2B12H12 can be prepared with high yields, and the mixed-phase Li4B10H10B12H12 shows significantly improved ionic conductivity compared to the individual phases. The solid electrolyte exhibits good oxidative and thermal stability, and the proof-of-concept solid-state batteries using it as the electrolyte show promising performance.
