| Abstract
| - Lithium insertion into Sn-doped TiO2 was studied in order to clarify the mechanism responsible for the plateau observed at 1.75 V vs Li. Pure and Sn-substituted anatase were synthesized by several synthetic methods with different precursors and solvents. Three processes have been identified from both X-ray diffraction and 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy.
- Lithium insertion into Sn-doped TiO2 anatase was studied in order to clarify the mechanism responsiblefor the first plateau observed at 1.75 V vs Li. One of the other aims of this study was to get deeperinsight into the process responsible for the appearance of a first domain observed at a small amount oflithium (before the plateau) and a third domain between 1.7 and 1.2 V (after the plateau). Pure andSn-substituted anatase were synthesized by several synthetic methods with different precursors and solvents.These materials are expected to have different electrochemical properties because crystallite size modifiesthe Li-insertion process. Their electrochemical behavior is discussed in order to establish a relationshipbetween the materials properties and the electrochemical performances. Three processes have beenidentified from both X-ray diffraction and 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy: (i) topotactic insertion into theLi-poor compound LixTiO2, with the x value depending on the particle size; (ii) a two-phase systemmechanism leading to the phase transition LixTiO2 (Anatase, I41/amd) → LiyTiO2 (orthorhombic distortion,Imma); and (iii) another topotactic insertion into the Li-rich compound LiyTiO2. Crystallite size governsthe topotactic mechanism but does not improve the overall electrochemical capacity of the material.
