Heterogeneous lithium diffusion in nanocrystalline Li2O:Al2O3 composites
Literature Information
Martin Wilkening, Sylvio Indris, Paul Heitjans
Li diffusion in the nanocrystalline composite system (1 − x)Li2O:xAl2O3 was studied by NMR measurements. Heterogeneous, biexponential 7Li NMR relaxation is found and two Li species with different dynamic behaviour can be discriminated via their individual spin–spin and spin–lattice relaxation times. The heterogeneous dynamics of the two Li species which also shows up in the 7Li NMR spectra reflects the heterogeneous structure of the nanocrystalline composites consisting of crystalline grains and a high volume fraction of interfacial regions. The number fraction of fast Li ions located in the interfacial regions increases with temperature and insulator content x. Accordingly biexponential relaxation becomes more pronounced. From the temperature dependence of the two spin–lattice relaxation rates activation energies of about 0.3 eV for both the fast and the slow Li species are obtained, independent of the composition of the composites.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
