摘要
Spinel LiNi_(0.5)Mn_(1.5)O_(4)(LNMO)cathode material doped with Ti and La co-doping were synthesized through a solid-state method.The bi-functions of the Ti and La co-doping is realized.On the one hand,the stability of the LiNi_(0.5)Mn_(1.5)O_(4)crystal structure is enhanced and the Mn3t interference inside the material is reduced by the Ti doping.On the other hand,the co-doped La contributes to the formation of Li_(0.5)La_(0.5)TiO_(3)(LLTO)superionic conductor incorporated in the bulk LiNi_(0.5)Mn_(1.5)O_(4)phase,thereby enhancing the Li diffusion.With the help of XRD,FTIR,SEM and STEM techniques,La and Ti in the crystallographic structure and the dispersion of the LLTO superionic conductor in the bulk LNMO spinel are discussed.At the optimized molar ratio of 20:1 between LNMO and LLTO,the composite exhibits the best electrochemical performances in terms of the reversible capacity,rate capability and cycling stability.The lithium ion diffusion coefficient in the bulk LNMO phase is tripled by the LLTO superionic conductor incorporation.
