AbstractA comprehensive time independent theory of the solid electrolyte(SE)–metal electrode interface is presented, using the assumption that cations are the only mobile charge carrier in the electrolyte. The temperature and the dc current across the SE are the only free parameters for the solutions along with three intrinsic parameters which depend on the properties of the particular system. The phenomenological model of the interface double layer is based on the Gouy–Chapman–Stern model.The numerical solutions of the theory for porous tungstenzeolite system enables us to predict most of the properties in the SE system such as;the current–overpotential characteristics, the capacitances of the double layer, concentration profile in the diffusion layer, the potential profile across the interface, electrochemical exchange current, and the potential of zero charge(PZC) etc. An experimental technique to measure the PZC of SE systems has been also proposed.

Chemo-mechanical degradation at the solid electrolyte – Li metal electrode interface is a bottleneck to improve cycle life of all-solid state Li-metal batteries. In this study, in operando digital image correlation (DIC) measurements provided temporal and spatial resolution of the chemo-mechanical deformations in LAGP solid electrolyte during the symmetrical cell cycling. The increase in strains in the interphase layer was correlated with the overpotential. The sudden increase in strains coincides with the mechanical fracture in LAGP detected by Micro CT. This work highlights the mechanical deformations in LAGP / Li interface and its coupling with the electrochemical behavior of the battery.

AbstractCryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) is a valuable tool recently proposed to investigate battery electrodes. Despite being employed for Li-based battery materials, cryo-TEM measurements for Na-based electrochemical energy storage systems are not commonly reported. In particular, elucidating the chemical and morphological behavior of the Na-metal electrode in contact with a non-aqueous liquid electrolyte solution could provide useful insights that may lead to a better understanding of metal cells during operation. Here, using cryo-TEM, we investigate the effect of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) additive on the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) structure of a Na-metal electrode. Without FEC, the NaPF6-containing carbonate-based electrolyte reacts with the metal electrode to produce an unstable SEI, rich in Na2CO3 and Na3PO4, which constantly consumes the sodium reservoir of the cell during cycling. When FEC is used, the Na-metal electrode forms a multilayer SEI structure comprising an outer NaF-rich amorphous phase and an inner Na3PO4 phase. This layered structure stabilizes the SEI and prevents further reactions between the electrolyte and the Na metal.

Deep learning has achieved remarkable success in diverse computer science applications, however, its use in other traditional engineering fields has emerged only recently. In this project, we solved several mechanics problems governed by differential equations, using physics informed neural networks (PINN). The PINN embeds the differential equations into the loss of the neural network using automatic differentiation. We present our developments in the context of solving two main classes of problems: data-driven solutions and data-driven discoveries, and we compare the results with either analytical solutions or numerical solutions using the finite element method. The remarkable achievements of the PINN model shown in this report suggest the bright prospect of the physics-informed surrogate models that are fully differentiable with respect to all input coordinates and free parameters. More broadly, this study shows that PINN provides an attractive alternative to solve traditional engineering problems.
