Abstract

Voltage decay in a charging-discharging cycle restricts the commercial application of Li-rich layered oxides as a cathode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries with high energy density. Considering the relationship between transition-metal ion migration and voltage decay, the size of doped ions and the bond dissociation between metal and oxygen play an important role in suppressing voltage decay. Herein, 5d metal rhenium has been incorporated into lithium-rich layered oxides for the first time. By replacing Mn4+ by Re7+ with the same ionic radius in the metal layer rather than the Li layer, the as-prepared rhenium-doped material could deliver a reversible capacity of 202 mAh.g(-1) under a current density of 400 mA.g(-1) and exhibit a significant mitigation of the voltage decay with a voltage retention of 81% in a voltage range of 2.0-4.8 V (vs Li+/Li) after 300 cycles. The improved electrochemical performance is resulted from the enhanced oxygen stability induced by local structural variation around doping Re. Also, this convenient method may be applied to other high-capacity cathode materials in the future.

Boosting the voltage/capacity stability of O2-type Li-rich layered cathodes by tailoring transition metal distribution for Li-ion batteries

Peiyu Hou, Zhenbo Sun, Mohan Dong, Maosheng Gong, Feng Li, Xijin Xu

Summary: Transition metal migration induces phase transition in Li-rich layered oxides (LLOs). O2-type LLOs with a unique stacking sequence can restrict irreversible TM migration but face valence reduction and J-T effect. Here, a graded structure of O2-type Mn-based LLO was designed with decreased Mn fraction and increased Ni content, which significantly reduced disproportionation and enhanced stability. The graded LLO showed improved cycling stability and reversible oxygen-anionic redox, making it a promising cathode material for high energy density Li-ion batteries.

Accumulated Lattice Strain as an Intrinsic Trigger for the First-Cycle Voltage Decay in Li-Rich 3d Layered Oxides

Suning Wang, Tian Zhao, Jinniu Chen, Alexander Missyul, Laura Simonelli, Laijun Liu, Fujun Li, Xiangyang Kong, Weibo Hua

Summary: Li- and Mn-rich layered oxides (LMLOs) are promising cathode materials with high discharge capacity for Li-ion batteries. The first-cycle voltage decay in LMLOs is caused by the disappearance of the honeycomb superstructure of the layered structure. Comparing the structural evolution of different LMLOs, it was found that the continuous increase of lattice strain leads to the voltage loss in Li[Li0.2Ni0.2Mn0.6]O-2 (LLNMO), while the accumulated lattice strain in LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811) and LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 (NCM622) can be released during discharge.

Summary: Li-and Mn-rich layered oxides (LMLOs) are promising cathode materials for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high discharge capacity. The voltage decay during cycling in LMLOs is attributed to the continuous increase of lattice strain in the bulk material, while some other LMLOs can release the accumulated strain on discharge. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the voltage decay in LMLOs.

Summary: Anionic redox in Li-ion cathodes offers increased energy density but comes with drawbacks such as voltage hysteresis. This study investigates the origin of voltage hysteresis by designing a Li-rich cation-disordered rock-salt compound and reveals a non-equilibrium redox pathway responsible for voltage hysteresis. The charge transfer involving structural distortion between O and Fe states is found to be the cause of voltage hysteresis.
