Abstract

Li-rich layered Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2 has been surface modified by nickel–manganese composite oxide (Ni0.5Mn1.5O x ) to serve as a novel cathode material with novel layered spinel structure for lithium-ion battery. The as-prepared Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2 before and after surface modification by Ni0.5Mn1.5O x as well as simply blended Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2 with spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4, have been characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electronic microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry. Electrochemical studies indicate that the Ni0.5Mn1.5O x surface modified Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2 with peculiar layered spinel character dramatically represented increased discharge capacity, improved cycling stability as well as excellent rate capability at high-voltage even up to 5.0 V.
