Li diffusion in the intercalated anode material Li4+xTi5O12 with x > 0 — •Wojciech Iwaniak1, Martin Wilkening1, Jessica Heine1, Viktor Epp1, Paul Heitjans1, Malte Behrens2, and Wolfgang Bensch21Institute of Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry, Leibniz University Hannover — 2Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Christian-Albrechts University Kiel

Currently there is considerable interest in spinel-type structured Li4+xTi5O12 (0 ≤ x ≤ 3, space group Fd3m) as a future anode in secondary Li ion batteries. Whereas the host material with x=0 is a poor Li conductor [1], the intercalated compounds with 0 < x < 3 show enhanced Li diffusivity. Additional Li can be inserted into Li4Ti5O12 either chemically by treatment with n-butyl lithium or electrochemically. Diffusion parameters were studied by 7Li spin-alignment echo (SAE) NMR as well as by 7Li rotating frame spin-lattice relaxation NMR. Activation energies EA of Li diffusion in the intercalated materials prepared by both routes are similar. Compared to the non-intercalated host EA is reduced by about a factor of two. In the host (x = 0) an activation energy of 0.86(1) eV was recently found by SAE-NMR, see Ref. [1]. NMR results will be compared with data obtained by dc-conductivity measurements.
