Abstract:

Solid electrolytes such as lithium lanthanum zirconate have shown a lot of promise in an all-solid-state Lithium-based battery since the discovery of its highly conductive cubic garnet structure. In this study, different concentrations of Al-doped Lithium Lanthanum Zirconate (Al-doped LLZ) having the formula of Li7-.3xAlxLa3Zr2O12 with x = 0.1,0 .2, 0.3, were synthesized via modified Pechini method and the effect of sintering temperatures, 1150 and 1200 °C, on the resulting properties were investigated. X-ray diffraction results have shown that cubic Al-doped LLZ can be obtained at a lower temperature using Pechini method. Significant effect to the conductivity on the different sintering temperatures was observed for the 0.1 Al-doped LLZ. With the different studied compositions synthesized via modified Pechini method, it was revealed that the 0.2 Al doped LLZ sintered either at 1150 or 1200 °C showed the highest conductivity of about 1.4x10-4 S/cm.
