Synthesis and electrochemical characterization of LiCo1/3Fe2/3PO4/C composite using nano CoFe2O4 as precursor

Solvothermal synthesis of LiFe1/3Mn1/3Co1/3PO4 solid solution as lithium storage cathode materials

“…A large discharge capacity of 120 mA h g À1 is still achieved even at 5C rate, as far as we know, which is the best result at such a high rate in recent literature. [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] The outstanding rate capability can be mainly attributed to the following two factors. Firstly, the nanometer dimension of LFMCP/C particles shortens the solid diffusion pathway of the Li ions.…”

“…[28][29][30][31] have attracted much interest on account of their increased energy density and improved rate performance in comparison to their single component phosphate. Wu et al 32 synthesized LiCo 1/3 Fe 2/3 PO 4 /C cathode material using CoFe 2 O 4 as raw material, showing a discharge capacity of 152.9 mA h g À1 at 0.1C. Xiong et al 33 prepared LiMn 1/3 Fe 1/3 Co 1/3 PO 4 /C composite through a sol-gel technique, which exhibited a reversible capacity of 142.6 mA h g À1 at 0.1C.…”
