摘要
Li-rich Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]02（LMNC） powders were synthesized by a gel-combustion method. The related microstructure, electrochemical performance and electrochemically induced phase evolution were characterized. The 900℃ calcined powders have a hexagonal layered structure with high ordered degree and low cationic mixing level. The calcined materials as cathode electrode for Li-ion battery deliver the high electrochemical properties with an initial discharge capacity of 243.5 mA. h. g-1 at 25 mA.g-1 and 249.2 mA-h.g-1 even after 50 cycles. The electrochemically induced phase evolution investigated by a transmission electron microscopy indicates that Li＋ ions deintercalated first from the LiMO2 （M = Mn, Co, Ni） component and then from Li2MnO3 component in the LMNC during the charge process, while Li＋ ions intercalated into Li1-xMO2 component followed by into MnO2 component during the discharge process.
