Zusammenfassung: | The “Learning from nature” strategy is currently going through a renaissance period in modern materials science. Valuable experience gained by observing existing natural materials—minerals—paves the way towards design and modification of prospective functional materials for energy storage, which typically inherit the peculiarities of the parental minerals. The faults and flaws of the crystal structure—its defects—play a crucial role in determining both mechanical and electrochemical properties of the electrode materials. In this review, we endeavored to rethink the defect chemistry in triphylite-type positive electrode materials for metal-ion batteries and reflected on it from the perspective of their mineral olivine counterparts, thus establishing important correlations between point defects in olivine minerals and related electrode materials, their origin and formation processes. This work is meant to review geoscience and materials science perceptions of defects in triphylite-type electrode materials for Li- and Na-ion batteries. |
