Resumo

Perovskite La0.557Li0.330TiO3 (LLTO) has been considered as one of the most promising solid-state electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries because of its high bulk ionic conductivity at room temperature (similar to 10(-3) S/cm). However, the full potential of this compound, as a ceramic electrolyte, is limited by the low ionic conductivity of the grain boundary (<10(-5) S/cm). One way to avoid the grain boundary barrier is to introduce LLTO crystals connecting the two electrodes. In this work, using LaAlO3 (LAO) single-crystal fibers as seeds, the conditions for oriented crystal growth of the LLTO compound, inside a bulk ceramic, are presented and discussed for different crystallographic directions ([100], [110], and [111]). The relationship between the LLTO crystal region and sintering parameters was investigated in detail, and a maximum growth rate was obtained using a [111]-oriented LAO single-crystal fiber. It is also shown that anisotropic epitaxial growth behaviors of LLTO crystals, in the LLTO/LAO composites, could be explained by morphological analysis and DFT simulations. The successful implementation of controllable LLTO crystal growth provides a feasible design for new solid-state electrolytes. (AU)
