Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recent theoretical and experimental works have shown that disordered positive electrode materials can function well in lithium cells. This work explores the solid solution series Li (1+ x ) Ti 2 x Fe (1–3 x ) O 2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.333) and compares the measured specific capacity variation with x to a recent theoretical model. The samples have varying degrees of cation disordering between lithium and transition metal layers that is dependent on x . The materials were characterized using induced coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) to quantify the degree of disorder and predict electrochemical performance. The specific capacities of lithium-limited samples (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.13) were found to agree very well with the recently proposed percolation theory model, whereas redox-limited samples (0.13 ≤ x ≤ 0.29) yielded slightly higher than expected capacities due to oxygen redox compensation characterized by oxygen K-edge XAS studies. Capacity retention was found to increase with lithium content. The voltage vs specific capacity relations for this set of materials do not suggest practicality, so this work is primarily of academic interest, but it suggests that more disordered materials should be explored.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
