The Li+ storage mechanism in a carbon composited zinc sulfide as an enhanced conversion-alloying anode material for Li+ ion batteries is studied by in situ methods. Further, it is found that the (de)lithiation processes are affected by a low charge transfer resistance, and the coated carbon can effectively improve the long-term cycling stability.

New series of spinel LiNi0.25Fe0.2Mˊ0.05Mn1.5O4 (Mˊ = Cu, Mg or Zn) cathode materials have been purposefully tailored using sol-gel auto-combustion method at low annealing temperature ~ 700°C for 3 h. The XRD analysis showed that all substituted (LNFMO-Mˊ) samples are comported with the main structure of undoped (LNFMO) with crystalline disordered spinel Fd-3m structure. TEM images revealed the octahedron-shape like morphology for the particles and the LNFMO-Zn sample has the widest particle size distribution. EIS spectra evidenced that a typical one semicircle (LNFMO-Mg) was revealed for each cell, suggesting the absence of ionic conductivity contribution. The values of charge transfer resistance (Rct) were equal to 9.3, 6.7, 6.0 and 4.4 kΩ for LNFMO, LNFMO-Cu, LNFMO-Mg indicating that the Zn-doped sample has the fastest kinetic diffusion rate and lowest activation energy of conduction.

Oxygen vacancies can promote Li-ion diffusion, reduce the charge transfer resistance, and improve the capacity and rate performance of Li-ion batteries. However, oxygen vacancies can also lead to accelerated degradation of the cathode material structure, and lead to phase transition etc.
