Ultra thin LiPON layers as an electrolyte for solid-state thin film batteries — •Susann Nowak, Frank Berkemeier, and Guido Schmitz — Universität Münster, Institut für Materialphysik, Wilhelm-Klemm-Str. 10, 48149 Münster
Despite LiPON (lithium phosphorus oxynitride, Li3Nx(PO4)1−x) is widely discussed as a suitable electrolyte for all solid-state thin film batteries, there are only a few publications reporting on films that exhibit a thickness below 1 µm. Therefore, in this work we investigate the properties of LiPON films with a thickness between 50 and 500 nm prepared by reactive ion-beam sputtering of Li3PO4, using argon as sputter gas and nitrogen as reactive additive and the characterization of the films by temperature-dependent electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Temperature dependent measurements of dc-conductivity by EIS give a conductivity of 5*10−7 S/cm at 30∘ and an activation enthalpy of (58 ± 2) kJ/mol, and hence allow to operate the LIPON films in all-solid state batteries at room temperature, with a reasonable charge/discharge performance. Additionally, thin film batteries have been prepared by depositing a LIPON layer between two metallic electrodes (e.g. Pt and Ag), which are forming a complete electrochemical thin-film cell during the first cycle of cyclic voltammetry measurements.
