Elevating the charging cutoff voltage of lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO 2 ) batteries to 4.6 V (vs Li/Li + ) enables the attainment of an impressive specific capacity; however, this advancement is hampered by severe structural degradation above 4.45 V attributed to unfavorable phase transitions and the occurrence of undesirable side reactions. Herein, we introduce high-valence Sb 5+ into LiCoO 2 , suppressing the O3 to H1−3 phase transition and thereby enhancing the structural stability of LiCoO 2 . The stable structure not only enables the formation of a more stable cathode-electrolyte interphase film on the surface of LiCoO 2 but also suppresses the dissolution of Co, reducing surface side reactions. As a result, Sb-doped LiCoO 2 , serving as a 4.6 V anode, exhibited a remarkable specific capacity of 169.2 mAh g −1 at a current density of 1C, with a durable capacity retention of 83.2% after 100 cycles. This study offers a structural modulation strategy for the further advancement of high-voltage LiCoO 2 cathodes.
