    摘要: An electrochemical cell is presented. The cell includes a housing having an interior surface defining a volume, and an elongated, ion-conducting separator disposed in the volume. The separator usually extends in a vertical direction relative to a base of the housing, so as to define a height dimension of the cell. The separator has a first circumferential surface defining a portion of a first compartment. The cell further includes a shim structure disposed between the interior surface and the first circumferential surface of the separator. The structure includes at least two shims. Each shim has a circumferential surface generally parallel to the other, and generally parallel to the first circumferential surface of the separator. An energy storage device including such an electrochemical cell is also provided.

    摘要: An energy storage device is provided that includes a cathodic material in electrical communication with a separator. The cathodic material includes copper. The separator has a first surface that defines at least a portion of a first chamber, and a second surface that defines a second chamber. The first chamber is in ionic communication with the second chamber through the separator. The separator has at least one of the following attributes: the separator is a composite of alumina and a rare earth oxide, or the separator is a composite of alumina and a transition metal oxide, or the separator comprises a plurality of grains, and the grains define grain boundaries that define interstitial spaces, and the interstitial spaces defined by the grain boundaries are free of sodium aluminate prior to an initial electrical charging of the energy storage device or are free of the cathodic material after the initial electrical charging of the energy storage device, or the separator comprises a continuous phase of an alkali-metal-ion conductor and a continuous phase of a ceramic oxygen-ion conductor. Various systems and methods are provided, also.
