چکیده
Pristine and substituted spinels, Li(M1/6Mn11/6)O4 (M ~ Co1/6, Co1/12Al1/12) were prepared and their cathodic performance up to 80 cycles at ambient temperature and at 50 uC and the Li ion kinetic parameters obtained by galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) at ambient temperature and 50 uC and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at ambient temperature up to 80 cycles were compared to understand the improved performance observed for the doped spinels. The apparent Li diffusion coefficient (DLi) obtained from GITT in the voltage range of operation of the cell (3.5–4.3 V vs. Li) at ambient temperature and 50 uC is in the range 1 6 10–10 cm s for M ~ Mn, Co and (Co,Al). The DLi vs. voltage plots show indication of suppression of two-phase formation in doped spinels. Distinct changes in the EIS-derived parameters and the DLi values in the compounds with M ~ Co, (Co,Al) as compared to LiMn2O4 lead to the conclusion that the observed cycling stability in the doped spinels is contributed by the Li ion kinetics in addition to the suppression of the structural changes and associated material dissolution.

Recently, composite materials based on Li-Mn-Ti-O system were developed to target low cost and environmentally benign cathodes for Li-ion batteries. The spinel-layered Li1.5MnTiO4+δ bulk particles showed excellent cycle stability but poor rate performance. To address this drawback, ultralong nanofibers of a Li1.5MnTiO4+δ spinel-layered heterostructure were synthesized by electrospinning. Unifor...
