An all solid-state thin film lithium ion battery has been touted the holy grail for energy storage technology ever since the inception of the first one in 1986 by Keiichi Kanehori. Solid-state batteries provide the distinct advantage of…
Li$_{7-4x}$Ge$_x$La$_3$Zr$_2$O$_{12}$ has been synthesized using the conventional solid-state reaction method by substituting Germanium (Ge) at the Li site, which increases the Li-ion vacancies and leads to an increase in conductivity with…
Doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZO) is a promising class of solid electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries due to their good electrochemical stability and compatibility with Li metal anodes. Ionic diffusivity in these ceramics is…
A solid electrolyte having the ionic conductivity comparable to that of conventional liquid electrolyte can be used in All Solid State Batteries (ASSB's). The series Li6.75+xLa3-xSrxZr1.75Ta0.25O12 (x = 0 to 0.20) was synthesized to improve…

Garnet-type Li$_{6.25}$Al$_{0.25}$La$_3$Zr$_2$O$_{12}$ (Al-LLZO) solid electrolytes are promising for all-solid-state batteries but are limited by interfacial resistance. In this work, dense and graded tri-layer Al-LLZO electrolytes were…
Suppression of superconductivity in favour of a striped phase, and its coincidence with a structural transition from a low-temperature orthorhombic (LTO) to a low-temperature tetragonal (LTT) phase, is a ubiquitous feature of hole-doped…
For being used as an electrolyte in All Solid State Batteries (ASSB), a solid electrolyte must possess ionic conductivity comparable to that of conventional liquid electrolytes. To achieve this conductivity range, the series…
