Abstract

Abstract:

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used due to their advantages of high energy density and low environmental pollution. However, there are still some problems that cannot be ignored, i.e., degradation of the electrochemical performance and poor thermal stability due to the deterioration of the structure of the electrode materials. Therefore, modification of the electrode materials is still a current research focus for LIBs. Based on the unique advantages of niobium (Nb), introducing Nb into LIBs as a positive doping material can increase the electronic conductivity, improve stability, expand the insertion/extraction channel of Li⁺, and reduce the degree of cation mixing. In addition, the introduction of Nb into LIBs as a negative active material, via Nb oxide or Nb-based composite oxides, also results in excellent electrochemical performance. In solid electrolytes, Nb is not only the main doping element of Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ but also the main component element of Li₅La₃Nb₂O₁₂. This paper discusses the recent literature and summarizes and analyzes the application of Nb in LIBs, with an emphasis on the doping mechanism and associated applications in positive material, negative material, and solid electrolytes for LIBs. For positive LIB materials, the research status of Nb in unitary, binary, ternary, lithium-rich, and polyanionic materials is introduced. For negative materials, the research progress of Nb oxide and Nb-based oxide anode materials as new negative materials is highlighted. In solid LIB electrolytes, the doping and application of Nb are introduced. Finally, the industrial application prospects and feasibility of Nb-modified electrode materials are analyzed. A comprehensive analysis shows that the research scope of Nb in lithium battery series is increasingly extensive as are its applications. It is believed that Nb will play a more important role in the field of lithium batteries in the future.
