LiTiCrO4
LiTiCrO4 is a stable semiconducting titanate material used in the study and development of advanced battery anode technologies.
About LiTiCrO4
LiTiCrO4 is a complex oxide belonging to the titanate anode class, characterized by its semiconducting electronic nature. Its position on the thermodynamic convex hull highlights its inherent stability, making it a robust candidate for energy storage research.
This material is primarily investigated for its role in electrochemical systems where stable titanate frameworks are required. Its unique combination of lithium, titanium, and chromium within an oxygen lattice provides a distinct structural profile for ion transport and intercalation applications.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for LiTiCrO4, aggregated across 3 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
