Description
The urgent need for sustainable energy solutions to address climate change and the increasing demand for high energy and power density have positioned solid-state batteries as a key area of research. Lithium metal chlorides (Li₃MCl₆) have emerged as promising candidates for next-generation batteries due to their high ionic conductivity, thermodynamic stability, and favorable mechanical properties. In this study, we investigated Li₃MCl₆ compounds with M = Dy, Ho, Tb, and Tm through X-ray diffraction (XRD), confirming that all samples crystallize in the space group P3̅m1, though exhibiting poor crystallinity and high disorder without post-synthesis annealing. Additionally, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was employed to evaluate their ionic conductivity, offering further insights into their potential for solid-state battery applications.
