Manganese-based cathode materials for Li-ion batteries

Comparative Issues of Cathode Materials for Li-Ion Batteries

After an introduction to lithium insertion compounds and the principles of Li-ion cells, we present a comparative study of the physical and electrochemical properties of positive electrodes used in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Electrode materials include three different classes of lattices according to the dimensionality of the Li ion motion in them: olivine, layered transition-metal oxides an...

A Search for the Optimum Lithium Rich Layered Metal Oxide Cathode Material for Li-Ion Batteries

We report the results of a comprehensive study of the relationship between electrochemical performance in Li cells and chemical composition of a series of Li rich layered metal oxides of the general formula xLi2MnO3 · (1-x)LiMn0.33Ni0.33Co0.33O2 in which x = 0,1, 0.2, 0,3, 0.5 or 0.7, synthesized using the same method. In order to identify the cathode material having the optimum Li cell perform...

Optimization of Layered Cathode Materials for Lithium-Ion Batteries

This review presents a survey of the literature on recent progress in lithium-ion batteries, with the active sub-micron-sized particles of the positive electrode chosen in the family of lamellar compounds LiMO₂, where M stands for a mixture of Ni, Mn, Co elements, and in the family of yLi₂MnO₃•(1 - y)LiNi½Mn½O₂ layered-layered integrated materials. The structural, physical, and chemical propert...

NMR studies of cathode materials for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries.

Lithium intercalation or insertion materials have been widely investigated in the search for new electrode materials for use in high-voltage rechargeable batteries.1-6 The first commercial Li-ion rechargeable battery contains the layered materials LiCoO2 (Figure 1) and graphite as the cathode (or positive electrode) and anode (or negative electrode), respectively.7 Although this battery is the ...
