Électrochimie et spectroscopie Raman de matériaux d’électrode positive pour batteries Li-ion / Electrochemistry and Raman study of positive electrode as materials for Li-ion batteriesDridi Zrelli, Yosra 08 November 2012 (has links)
Dans ce travail de thèse, la microspectrométrie Raman a été mise à profit pour décrire les changements structuraux induits par la réaction électrochimique d'insertion/désinsertion des ions lithium dans des composés de structure lamellaire LiCoO2 et cubique LiMn2O4 et LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4, utilisés comme électrodes positives dans les batteries Li-ion. L'étude du composé d'électrode LiCoO2 pendant le processus de charge permet de mettre en évidence une région biphasée où la phase initiale coexiste avec une nouvelle phase hexagonale caractérisée par une expansion du paramètre inter-feuillets de l'ordre de 3% et un affaiblissement de la liaison Co-O dans le plan des feuillets. Dans le cas de LiMn2O4, une nouvelle attribution du spectre Raman a pu être proposée. Pendant la charge à 4V, un mécanisme à trois phases (phase initiale LiMn2O4, phase intermédiaire, phase pauvre en lithium) est décrit par spectroscopie Raman alors que la diffraction des RX ne permet pas d'observer la phase intermédiaire dans nos conditions de mesure. L'étude de l'insertion électrochimique du lithium dans LiMn2O4 (région 3V), a permis de montrer pour la première fois par spectroscopie Raman la formation progressive d'une phase tétragonale de composition Li2Mn2O4 qui coexiste avec la phase cubique initiale et qui est pure en fin de décharge. La réversibilité de cette transition structurale a également été démontrée. Dans le cas du composé substitué au nickel, LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4, une attribution complète du spectre Raman est proposée pour la première fois. L'étude par diffraction des RX du matériau en fonction de l'état de charge et de décharge met en évidence une conservation de la structure cubique avec des variations modérées de paramètres de maille. Le spectre Raman présente quant à lui des variations très significatives qui rendent compte de la présence dans des proportions différentes des espèces redox impliquées dans le fonctionnement électrochimique (Mn4+, Mn3+, Ni2+, Ni3+, Ni4+). Une analyse spectrale par décompositions de bandes permet d'identifier et de quantifier les proportions relatives des différents couples redox du nickel. Une réversibilité complète de la signature Raman est observée en décharge. Une application concrète et originale de la spectroscopie Raman a consisté à étudier le mécanisme d'autodécharge qui est observé pour le matériau LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4 complètement chargé. L'évolution des spectres Raman permet de mettre en évidence une réduction rapide et quantitative des ions Ni4+ pendant les premières heures de séjour dans l'électrolyte, puis un processus plus lent de réduction des ions Ni3+. Enfin, pour la première fois également, l'insertion du lithium dans le composé LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4 a été explorée par microspectrométrie Raman et a permis notamment d'identifier l'empreinte Raman de la phase la plus réduite de symétrie tétragonale Li2Ni0.4Mn1.6O4. L'originalité de ce travail a été d'apporter un grand nombre de données Raman expérimentales sur des matériaux d'électrode performants fonctionnant à 4V. De nouvelles attributions ont pu être proposées pour les composés initiaux, et des données vibrationnelles inédites ont été fournies sur les composés formés en charge et en décharge. Dans certains cas, ces données ont permis, sur la base d'une analyse détaillée des spectres Raman par décompositions de bandes, de proposer un raisonnement quantitatif sur l'existence de phases ou d'espèces redox en mélange. Il conviendrait bien sûr de corroborer ces nouvelles données et attributions par des calculs théoriques ab initio capables de simuler les fréquences et les intensités des modes vibrationnels dans les structures hôtes et lithiées / In this work, we show the relevance of Raman spectroscopy as a useful technique to investigate the local changes induced by the electrochemical reaction of intercalation/deintercalation of lithium in positive electrode materials for rechargeable lithium ion batteries.Raman investigations concern three types of high voltage cathode materials (4-5Volts) which are layered LiCoO2 and cubic LiMn2O4 and LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4.During electrochemical deintercalation of LiCoO2, we show the existence of a two phase region where the initial hexagonal phase coexist with a second hexagonal phase with a 3% expansion of the lattice parameter indicating a weakening of the Co-O bond in the Li1-xCoO2 material.On the other hand, a new assignment of LiMn2O4 Raman spectrum was proposed. During the charge in the 4V region, a three region phase (initial LiMn2O4 phase, intermediary phase and poor lithium phase) was described using Raman spectroscopy. RX measurements can not detect this intermediary phase. Lithiated phase Raman signature shows a specific local order: Fd3m for extreme phases and F43m for partially lithiated phase. A rich Raman band spectrum is attributed to this later phase in coherence with literature calculations. Structural changes reversibility is demonstrated. Identification of this intermediary phase as a major component of a cycled electrode, underline the incomplete reduction and explain the important loss of capacity observed during cycling. Raman study of LiMn2O4 electrochemical insertion in the 3V region, has demonstrated for the first time a progressive formation of tetragonal Li2Mn2O4 phase, which is in coexistence with initial cubic phase and is pure at the end of discharge. Structural transition reversibility was also demonstrated.In the case of LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4, the assignment of the Raman spectrum of LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4 is provided for the first time. DRX study in function of the state of charge and discharge, exhibit cubic structure conservation with moderate lattice parameters variations. The Raman spectrum of the spinel oxide exhibits drastic spectral changes during Li extraction. These changes have been directly related to the Mn and Ni oxidation states in the cathode material under operation. It comes out that electrochemical reactions of LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4 are reversible and based on three redox couples of Mn3+/Mn4+, Ni2+/Ni3+, and Ni3+/Ni4+. An original and concrete Raman spectroscopy application is the study of self discharge mechanism of completely charged LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4. Raman spectra evolution exhibits a quantitative Ni4+ reduction during the first hours, and then a slower Ni3+ reduction process. Finally, LiNi0.4Mn1.6O4 lithium insertion has been explored for the first time using Raman spectroscopy, and a tetragonal Li2Ni0.4Mn1.6O4 phase has been identified.The originality of this work is the important number of experimental Raman data of 4V electrode materials. New assignment of initial compound has been proposed and original vibrationnal data of compound during charge/discharge has been presented. These Raman data has permitted to propose a quantitative explanation which must be completed with ab initio calculations to simulate vibrationnal modes frequencies/ intensities

Comparação dos aspectos morfológicos e químicos de esmalte e dentina de dentes decíduos e permanentes / Morphological and chemical aspects comparison between enamel and dentin of permanent and deciduous teethOliveira, Maria Angélica Hueb de Menezes 08 July 2009 (has links)
O objetivo deste estudo in vitro foi avaliar e comparar a microestrutura e a composição mineral do esmalte e da dentina de dentes decíduos e permanentes. Terceiros molares hígidos e segundos molares decíduos foram selecionados e distribuídos aleatoriamente em grupos, de acordo com o método de análise dos substratos utilizado: Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV), Espectroscopia de Energia Dispersiva de Raio X (EDX), Difração de Raio X (DRX) e Microscopia Óptica (MO). Foi realizada comparação qualitativa e quantitativa da estrutura dental. As medidas de densidade numérica e diâmetro dos prismas de esmalte/túbulos dentinários e, de espessura do esmalte, dentina e dentina peritubular foram realizadas por meio de fotomicrografias obtidas pela MEV. Os resultados obtidos por meio da SEM foram analisados estatisticamente pelo teste não-paramétrico de Kruskal-Wallis. A quantidade relativa de íons cálcio (Ca) e fósforo (P) foram determinadas por meio de EDX e as fases químicas presentes em ambos os substratos, por análise de DRX. O valor das medidas de espessura observado para o esmalte e dentina dos dentes decíduos foi de 1.14 mm e 3.02 mm, respectivamente. Para os dentes permanentes, obtiveram-se valores de 2.58 mm para o esmalte e 5.95 mm para a dentina. Com relação ao diâmetro da cabeça dos prismas de esmalte, os resultados foram estatisticamente semelhantes para os dentes decíduos e permanentes, demonstrando uma ligeira diminuição do diâmetro da superfície externa para a região próxima a junção amelodentinária (JAD). A densidade numérica dos prismas foi maior nos dentes decíduos, principalmente próximo à JAD, sendo estatisticamente diferente dos valores observados nos dentes permanentes, independente da região analisada. Na análise do diâmetro e densidade numérica dos túbulos dentinários verificou-se semelhança estatística entre os dentes decíduos e permanentes, havendo aumento gradativo do número de túbulos a partir da JAD em direção a região próxima a polpa. A espessura da dentina peritubular, na região próxima a JAD e central foi, respectivamente, 0.91 e 0.59 mm nos dentes decíduos 1.16 e 0.98 mm nos dentes permanentes. A porcentagem de Ca e P foi maior nos dentes permanentes. Observou-se ainda, que a quantidade de colágeno nos dentes decíduos foi aparentemente menor quando analisados por meio da MO. De acordo com os resultados obtidos neste estudo, pode-se concluir que, de maneira geral, os dentes decíduos apresentam menor porcentagem de Ca e P, menor espessura de esmalte e dentina, maior densidade numérica de prismas e dentina peritubular mais delgada quando comparada aos dentes permanentes. / This study evaluated in vitro the microstructure and mineral composition of dental enamel and dentin comparing the permanent teeth with the deciduous teeth. Sound third molars and second primary molars were selected and randomly assigned to the following groups, according to the analysis methods of the substrates performed: Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) and Optical Microscopy (OP). A qualitative and quantitative comparison of the dental structure was done. The measurements of the number and diameter of prisms/tubules, thickness of enamel, dentin and peritubular dentin were done in SEM photomicrographs. The microscopic findings were analyzed statistically by a non-parametric test (Kruskal- Wallis). The relative amounts of calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) were determined by EDS investigation. Phase present in both types of teeth were observed by the XRD analysis. The mean thickness measurements observed in the deciduous teeth enamel and dentin was, respectively, 1.14 mm and 3.02 mm and in the permanent teeth, 2.58 mm and 5.95 mm. The mean rod head diameter in deciduous teeth was statistically similar to that of permanent teeth enamel, and a slightly decrease from the outer enamel surface to the region next to the enameldentine junction was assessed. The numerical density of enamel rods was higher in the deciduous teeth, mainly near EDJ, that showed statistically significant difference. The mean tubules number and diameter in deciduous teeth were statistically similar to that of permanent teeth, and this numerical density increased from the EDJ to the region near the pulp. The mean thickness measurements of peritubular dentin observed in the regions near EDJ and central were, respectively, 0.91 and 0.59 mm for the primary teeth / 1.16 and 0.98 mm for the permanent teeth. The percentage of Ca and P was higher in the permanent teeth. The collagen level was apparently lower in deciduous teeth when analyzed by OP. The primary teeth structure showed a lower level of Ca and P and a thinner enamel and dentin thickness. The deciduous enamel presented higher numerical density of rods. The peritubular dentin was thicker in the permanent teeth.

Etude électrochimique et structurale du système NaxMoO2 / Electrochemical and structural study of the NaxMoO2 systemVitoux, Laura 20 December 2016 (has links)
Ce travail de thèse présente l’étude du diagramme de phase des oxydes lamellaires NaxMoO2dans le cadre de la recherche de nouveaux matériaux. L’identification des transitionsstructurales au cours de l’intercalation et désintercalation électrochimique du sodium dans lesdomaines de composition ½ ≤ x ≤ 1 et ¼ < x ≤ ½ a été faite par électrochimie combinée à ladiffraction des rayons X in situ. Il a été montré que le profil très accidenté de la courbegalvanostatique résulte de multiples réarrangements structuraux au cours du cyclage.Notamment l’existence de nombreuses phases NaxMoO2 particulières a été mise en évidence,pour lesquelles des mises en ordre des ions sodium et des atomes de molybdène sont attendues.Des composés Na~1/2MoO2, Na~2/3MoO2 et NaMoO2 ont été synthétisés ex situ par voieélectrochimique ou chimique et leur caractérisation révèle des arrangements structurauxcomplexes, tel que des chaînes de clusters de molybdène dans les feuillets [MoO2] de NaMoO2. / This work concerns the investigation of the phase diagram of sodium layered oxides NaxMoO2in the search of new materials. Structural transitions upon sodium electrochemical(de)intercalation were studied by electrochemistry combined with in situ X-ray diffraction forcompositions ½ ≤ x ≤ 1 et ¼ < x ≤ ½. It was shown that the very undulating aspect of theelectrochemical curve results from multiple structural rerarrangements upon cycling. Especiallynumerous NaxMoO2 specific phases have been evidenced, for which sodium/vacancy orderingsas well as the formation of Mo-Mo bonds are expected. Na~1/2MoO2, Na~2/3MoO2 et NaMoO2compounds have been (electro)chemically synthesized and their structural characterizationreveals complex structures, such as chains of diamond-like molybdenum clusters in NaMoO2.
