Draft:Disordered rock salt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Disordered rock salts (DRX) are a class of materials bearing the rock salt crystal structure with a disordered arrangement of cations. They are most notable for their potential uses in lithium-ion battery cathodes.[1]

Structure

[edit]

The atoms in disordered rock salts form a rock-salt structure,[1] in which the cations are arranged in a face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice with the anions occupying the octahedral holes.[2] The associated space group is Fm3m or 225, and the Strukturbericht designation is B1.[3]

DRX are distinct from other rock salts in that the cations

Use in lithium-ion batteries
