Effect of LiCoO₂ coating on the electrochemical performance of LiMn_0.9Co_0.1O₂ cathode materials for Li-ion batteries

Evaluation of Cathode Materials with Lithium-Metal Anodes: Baseline Performance and Protocol Standardization of Coin Cells

“…[1][2][3][4] Following the initial commercialization of rechargeable LIBs using LiCoO 2 (LCO) cathodes and graphite anodes, LIBs have been utilized in a variety of applications due to their high energy density and facile syntheses and fabrication processes. 5,6 While LCO has many excellent properties as a battery cathode material, including high conductivity and a stable layered structure, [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] the widespread use of cobalt in LIBs is under scrutiny due to its high cost, toxicity, and supply issues. 14 Many researchers have investigated alternative cathode materials containing different transition metals intended to replace cobalt.…”
