Ceramic synthesis of disordered lithium rich oxyfluoride materials
Disordered lithium-rich transition metal oxyfluorides with a general formula LiMOF (M being a transition metal) are gaining more attention due to their high specific capacity which can be delivered from the facecentered cubic (fcc) structure. The most common synthesis procedure involves use of mechanosynthesis. In this work, ceramic synthesis of lithium rich iron oxyfluoride and lithium rich titanium oxyfluoride are reported. Two ceramic synthesis routes are developed each leading to the different level of doping with Li and F and different levels of cationic disorder in the structure. Three different LiMOF samples (x ¼ 0.25, 0.3 and 1) are compared with a sample prepared by mechanochemical synthesis and non-doped LiFeO2 with fcc structure. The obtained lithium rich iron oxyfluoride are characterized by use of M€ossbauer spectroscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, NMR and TEM. Successful incorporation of Li and F have been confirmed and specific capacity that can be obtained from the samples is in the correlation with the level of disorder introduced with doping, nevertheless oxidation state of iron in all samples is very similar. Conclusions obtained from lithium rich iron oxyfluoride are validated by lithium rich titanium oxyfluoride

Crystal chemistry and selected physical properties of inorganic fluorides and oxide-fluorides
importance in the development of many new technologies, andare impacting various key points of modern life, that is, energyproduction and storage, microelectronics and photonics,catalysis, automotive, building, etc. Many research fields andapplications are indeed concerned by a better knowledge of therelationships occurring between the structure of suchcompounds and some pertinent physical properties. ThisReview deals with the structural chemistry of solid-stateinorganic fluorides and oxide-fluorides, mostly transitionmetal-based, including rare-earth elements. Such a Review hasnot been published for a long time.1 Articles that recentlyappeared on inorganic fluorinated compounds were mostlyfocused on material science characteristics: morphology, surfacefunctionalization, nanostructuration of the materials andapplications, rather than on the description of characteristicstructural features.2−5 Detailed reviews focused on rare earthbasedinorganic fluorides have also appeared some yearsago..
