Fast & Extreme Fast Charging

Substitutional Doping Of TiNb2O7 Anode For Extreme Fast Charging Yu et al. report an ultra-fast charging anode with long-term cycling stability enabled by Fe substitution in single-crystal TiNb2O7

nanostructures. The underlying mechanism by which Fe substitution affects the materialʼs electronic properties, ionic diffusion kinetics, and structural stability is revealed through combined theoretical modeling and experimental characterization. The optimal Fe3-doped TNO monocrystalline material Fe0.05Ti0.95Nb2O6.975) provides a remarkable charge capacity of 238 mAh/g under a 10 C 6 min charging time only) extreme fast-charging protocol (coupled with 1 C discharge), and a capacity of 200 mAh/g at 5 C with a cycling retention of 85% after 1000 cycles. The calculations suggest that Fe3 substitutional doping leads to a lowering of the band gap coupled with a reduction in the energy barrier for Li+ diffusion.
