LATP Lithium Aluminum Titanium Phosphate

Overview

Lithium Aluminium Titanium Phosphate (LATP) is a NASICON-type lithium-ion conducting ceramic widely studied for solid-state battery and electrochemical energy storage research. With the chemical composition Li₁.₃Al₀.₃Ti₁.₇(PO₄)₃, LATP exhibits a three-dimensional framework that enables fast lithium-ion transport through interconnected channels, offering high ionic conductivity at room temperature.

Unlike conventional liquid electrolytes, LATP functions as a solid lithium-ion conductor, improving thermal stability, chemical robustness, and safety. The partial substitution of Ti⁴⁺ with Al³⁺ introduces lithium vacancies, which significantly enhances Li⁺ mobility within the crystal lattice.
