Unveiling the High‐Voltage Reactivity and Gas Evolution With Aluminum‐Based Chloride and Oxychloride Catholytes in Solid‐State Sodium Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The work examines the electrochemical and interfacial behaviors of crystalline NaAlCl4 and amorphous Na–Al–oxychloride solid electrolytes with NaNi0.5Mn0.5O2 cathodes. Operando gas evolution and ToF‐SIMS analyses highlight that pure chloride solid electrolytes offer greater interfacial stability and safety compared to the oxychloride solid electrolytes

Mechanisms of Alkali Ionic Transport in Amorphous Oxyhalides Solid State Conductors

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Large‐scale machine learning‐based molecular dynamics simulations are used to investigate isovalent amorphous oxyhalides, revealing a remarkable chemically independent ionic conductivity. A rigorous analysis of alkali residence times across different metal–anion environments identifies divalent anions as key diffusion bottlenecks.
