Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Studies of Electrode and Electrolyte Materials for Li-Ion Batteries

<p>In this thesis, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopic techniques are used to study lithium electrode and electrolyte materials for advanced rechargeable lithium ion batteries. Three projects are described in this thesis. The first involves ²³Na and ³⁷Al static and magic angle spinning NMR studies of NaAlH₄/C anode materials for advanced rechargeable batteries. The second project is a study of paramagnetic lithium transition-metal phosphate cathode materials for Li-ion batteries, where⁷Li, and ³¹P single crystal NMR was used in order to obtain detailed information on the local electronic and magnetic environments. The third project investigates the dynamics and motional properties of PS-PEO (16-16)/LiTFSI, a solid electrolyte material, through pulse field gradient NMR.</p>
