Li2MSiO4(M=Mn, Co, Ni) is a potential high capacity cathode material because of its outstanding properties that exchange of two electrons per transition metal atom is possible and the theoretical capacity of Li2MSiO4 can reach as high as 330 mAhg-1. In this family, the cathode performance of Li2MnSiO4 synthesized by solution route has been published recently. However, it seems that the cycle life of Li2MnSiO4 fell short of our expectation. In this work, the Li2Mn0.7Fe0.3SiO4 cathode material was synthesized by traditional solid-state reaction method. The prepared powder was consisted of majority of Li2Mn0.7Fe0.3SiO4 and minor impurities which were examined by XRD. FESEM morphology showed that the products of Li2Mn0.7Fe0.3SiO4 and Li2MnSiO4 have similar particle size (about 50-300 nm). The electrochemical performance of Li2Mn0.7Fe0.3SiO4, especially for reversible capacity and cycle life, exhibited better than those of Li2MnSiO4.

Li-rich layered xLi2MnO3-(1-x) LiMO2(M=Ni,Co,Mn...) solid solution materials possess high energy density, high capacity, and long cycle life. Meanwhile, the electrochemical charge/discharge mechanism is quite different. In this paper, Li-rich cathode material xLi2MnO3-(1-x) LiMO2(M=Ni,Co,Mn...) is introduced though its structure, charge/discharge mechanism, synthetic methods and electrochemical performance. What is more, the characteristics and development trend of this series of cathode material are summarized.

Aluminium has shown its superiority in stabilization of the monoclinic VO2(B) in free-standing nanobelts. In this paper, aluminium-doped VO2(B) nanobelts are successfully fabricated by a facile one-step hydrothermal method and used as cathode for lithium-ion battery. XPS results show that Al-doping promotes the formation of high valence state of vanadium in VO2(B) nanobelts. Due to the accommodation of valence state of vanadium and lattice volume, Al-doped VO2(B) nanobelts used as the cathode material for lithium-ion batteries exhibit better lithium storage properties with high capacity of 172[Formula: see text]mAh[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] and cycling stability than undoped VO2(B) nanobelts. This work demonstrates that the doping of aluminium can significantly enhance the electrochemical performance of VO2(B), suggesting that appropriate cationic doping is an efficient path to improve the electrochemical performance of electrode materials.

LiFe 1-x Mn x PO 4/ C composites were prepared as cathode material for lithium ion battery via solid-state reaction and using glucose as reducing agent and carbon source. The crystal structure and morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The resultant samples were pure olivine compounds with an orthorhombic structure. Their electrochemical performance was studied by galvanostatic charge–discharge test and cyclic voltammetry. The results showed that the sample LiFe0.8Mn0.2PO4/C with an average particle size of 400 nm exhibited the largest discharge capacity of 150 mAh g-1, excellent reversibility of charge–discharge and high capacity retention of 97% after a 50-cycle CV scanning. The improved electrical conductivity corresponding to the fine carbon layer around the LiFe0.8Mn0.2PO4 individual particle can be responsible for all these excellent electrochemical performance.
