Elucidation of Active Oxygen Sites upon Delithiation of Li<sub>3</sub>IrO<sub>4</sub>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Transformational increases in the storage capacity of battery cathodes could be achieved by tapping into the redox activity at oxide ligands in addition to conventional transition metal couples. Yet the key signatures that govern such lattice oxygen redox (LOR) have not been ascertained. Li 3 IrO 4 has the largest reversible LOR, rendering it a unique model system. Here, X-ray spectroscopy and computational simulations reveal that LOR in Li 3 IrO 4 is selectively compensated via O sites with 3 lone pairs, which are activated by Li/Ir disorder. The 2-electron LOR can be reversed to regenerate the initial state without unlocking competing bulk reactions observed in many other compounds. We uncover an intricate interplay between stoichiometry, O coordination and non-bonding states in LOR and pinpoint spectroscopic signatures. This interplay is indispensable to design materials with 3 d metals that fulfill the promise of LOR to overcome the bottlenecks of current cathodes for future implementation in practical batteries.

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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
