The role of solid solutions in iron phosphate-based electrodes for selective electrochemical lithium extraction

Lithium extraction from dilute sources could help solve the lithium supply security issue. Here, the authors investigate the Li- and Na- ion co-intercalation behavior in iron phosphate electrodes and demonstrate the lithium selectivity control through intercalation kinetic manipulations.

Identifying critical features of iron phosphate particle for lithium preference

Olivine iron phosphate (FePO₄) is widely proposed for electrochemical lithium extraction, but particles with different physical attributes demonstrate varying Li preferences. Here, the authors characterize the electrochemical lithiation and sodiation behavior of a series of FePO₄ particles with different morphology to identify critical features that enhance Li selectivity.

Uncovering the predictive pathways of lithium and sodium interchange in layered oxides

Ion exchange is a powerful method to access metastable materials for energy storage, but identifying lithium and sodium interchange in layered oxides remains challenging. Using such model materials, vacancy level and corresponding lithium preference are shown to be crucial for ion exchange pathway accessibility.
