Major Contributions
1.Developed a rapid microwave-assisted synthesis enabling d⁰-free DRX formation without redox-inactive stabilizers.
2.Achieved high-capacity (220 mAh g⁻¹) and durable micrometer-sized Mn-based DRX cathodes without particle downsizing.
3.Revealed that removing d⁰ species enhances δ-phase transformation, improving Li-ion transport and cycling stability.
主要貢獻
1.快速微波輔助合成技術: 開發了一種快速合成法,無需使用氧化還原非活性穩定劑(redox-inactive stabilizers),即可生成無 d⁰ 的無序岩鹽(DRX)結構。
2.高性能微米級材料: 實現了高容量(220 mAh g⁻¹)且具耐久性的微米級錳基 DRX 正極,且無需進行顆粒微縮化(particle downsizing)處理。
3.機制揭示: 研究發現移除 d⁰ 物種能增強 δ 相(delta-phase)轉變,進而改善鋰離子傳輸與循環穩定性。
