A novel inorganic solid state ion conductor for rechargeable Mg batteries†
Abstract
The conduction of the bivalent magnesium cation, Mg2+, in an inorganic solid state material, Mg(BH4)(NH2), has been demonstrated. This material exhibited a high ionic conductivity of 10−6 S cm−1 at 150 °C, and its electrochemical window was estimated to be approximately 3 V using cyclic voltammetry.
