Presented are new, earth-abundant lithium superionic conductors, LiY(PS)and LiPSCl, that emerged from a comprehensive screening of the Li&#x2014;P&#x2014;S and Li-M-P&#x2014;S chemical spaces. Both candidates are derived from the relatively unexplored quaternary silver thiophosphates. One key enabler of this discovery is the development of a first-of-its-kind high-throughput first principles screening approach that can exclude candidates unlikely to satisfy the stringent Liconductivity requirements using a minimum of computational resources. Both candidates are predicted to be synthesizable, and are electronically insulating. Systems and methods according to present principles enable new, all-solid-state rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium and sodium superionic conductors

A light emitting diode (LED) assembly includes an LED light source having a first light output with a characteristic spectrum and at least one phosphor through which the first light output passes. The phosphor includes the quaternary compound M-Li&#x2014;Al&#x2014;O, where M is Ba, Sr, or Ca, activated by Euor Ce.

Mining unexplored chemistries for phosphors for high-color-quality whitelight-emitting diodes

Presented are new, earth-abundant lithium superionic conductors, LiY(PS)and L1PSCl, that emerged from a comprehensive screening of the Li&#x2014;P&#x2014;S and Li&#x2014;M&#x2014;P&#x2014;S chemical spaces. Both candidates are derived from the relatively unexplored quaternary silver thiophosphates. One key enabler of this discovery is the development of a first-of-its-kind high-throughput first principles screening approach that can exclude candidates unlikely to satisfy the stringent Li+ conductivity requirements using a minimum of computational resources. Both candidates are predicted to be synthesizable, and are electronically insulating. Systems and methods according to present principles enable new, all-solid-state rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.
