Abstract

Garnet-type oxides, Li5La3M2O12 (M = Nb, Ta) are a group of materials that exhibit high electrochemical stability and high conductivity for Li ions, making them promising electrolyte materials for all-solid-state Li-ion batteries. Li ion conductivity can continue to be increased by substituting alkaline earth and Li ions for La3+ in the structure. Our recent work has shown a simple empirical relation between concentration of Li and ionic conductivity in several garnet-type compounds. The occupation of Li ions in various crystallographic sites also appears to control Li ion conductivity in the garnet-type structures. In the present paper, we report current progress in garnet-based Li ion electrolytes and also discuss the effect of chemical doping on ionic conductivity and chemical stability of Li5La3Nb2O12 in water and organic acids.
