We suggest that the transition to superconductivity in a single crystal of Ba_{0.6}K_{0.4}BiO_3 with a T_c = 32K, and having critical fields with anomalous temperature dependencies and vanishing discontinuities in specific heat and magnetic…

We study superconductivity in the superionic phase of the clathrate hydride Li$_2$MgH$_{16}$, where hydrogen ions diffuse among the lattice formed by lithium and magnesium ions. By employing the stochastic path-integral approach, we…

In order to replace the conventional liquid electrolytes by solid electrolytes, high room temperature ionic conductivity is required. To achieve such high ionic conductivity, the series Li7-3xGaxLa3Zr1.9Ge0.1O12 was prepared by solid-state…

All-solid-state batteries using sodium are promising candidates for next-generation rechargeable batteries due to the limited lithium resources. A practical sodium battery requires an electrolyte with high conductivity. Cubic Na$_3$PS$_4$…

We have performed ab-initio lattice dynamics and molecular dynamics studies of Li2X (X=O, S and Se) to understand the ionic conduction in these compounds. The inelastic neutron scattering measurements on Li2O have been performed across its…

We observed superconductivity ($T_{c}$ $\simeq$2-3 K) in Li$_{x}$RhB$_{y}$ intermetallics wherein $x$ and $y$ vary over a wide compositional range. The crystal structure consists of cubic unit-cell ($a$ $\simeq$ 12.1 \AA ) with…

In lithium ion batteries, Li+ intercalation and processes associated with passivation of electrodes are governed by applied voltages, which are in turn associated with free energy changes of Li+ transfer (Delta G_t) between the solid and…

We investigate low-temperature electronic states of the series of organic conductors $\beta^{\prime\prime}$-(BEDT-TTF)$_4$[(H$_3$O)M(C$_2$O$_4$)$_3$]G, where BEDT-TTF is bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene, and M and G represent trivalent…

Metal anodes provide the highest energy density in batteries. However, they still suffer from electrode/electrolyte interface side reactions and dendrite growth, especially under fast-charging conditions. In this paper, we consider a…

Enhancing the ion conduction in solid electrolytes is critically important for the development of high-performance all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Lithium thiophosphates are among the most promising solid electrolytes, as they…

Solid-state batteries require electrolytes that sustain high ionic conductivity under the mechanical environment of a functioning cell. Lattice strain, arising from stack pressure, thermal cycling, or lattice mismatch at interfaces, can…

The vast amount of computational studies on electrical conduction in solid-state electrolytes is not mirrored by comparable efforts addressing thermal conduction, which has been scarcely investigated despite its relevance to thermal…

Upon insertion and extraction of lithium, materials important for electrochemical energy storage can undergo changes in thermal conductivity (${\Lambda}$) and elastic modulus ($\it M$). These changes are attributed to evolution of the…
