Lithium-stuffed garnets, one of the most promising solid electrolytes for all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs), are typically vulnerable to water or moisture. In this work, a novel type of Li 6.5 La 3 Zr 1.5 Ta 0.5 O 12 (LLZT) with ionic conductivity of 7.36 ×10 −4 S cm -1 at room...

Non-saturated markets such as high-tech markets are attracting more and more eco-conscious consumers. Their utility can be increased by firms’ investment in carbon reduction, so the overall demand can be expanded without intensifying the market competition too much. In this paper, we build a...
