- Description
- Solid-state electrolytes are critical for the development of next-generation high-energy and high-safety rechargeable batteries. Among all the candidates, sodium (Na) superionic conductors (NASICONs) are highly promising because of their evident advantages in high ionic conductivity and high chemical/electrochemical stability. The concept of NASICONs was proposed by Hong and Goodenough et al. in 1976 by reporting the synthesis and characterization of Na1+xZr2(SixP3−x)O12 (0 ≤ x ≤ 3), which has attracted tremendous attention on the NASICONs-type solid-state electrolytes. In this review, we are committed to describing the development history of NASICONs-type solid-state electrolytes and elucidating the contribution of Goodenough as a tribute to him. We summarize the correlations and differences between lithium-based and sodium-based NASICONs electrolytes, such as their preparation methods, structures, ionic conductivities, and the mechanisms of ion transportation. Critical challenges of NASICONs-structured electrolytes are discussed, and several research directions are proposed to tackle the obstacles toward practical applications.
