Combining two methods, coating and doping, to modify spinel LiMn2O4, is a novel approach we used to synthesize active material. First we coated the LiMn2O4 particles with the nickel oxide particles by means of homogenous precipitation, and then the nickel oxide-coated LiMn2O4 was calcined at 750 degrees C to form a LiNixMn2-xO4 shell on the surface of spinel LiMn2O4 particles. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and charge-discharge test were performed to characterize the spinel LiMn2O4 before and after modi. cation. The experimental results indicated that a spinel LiMn2O4 core is surrounded by a LiNixMn2-xO4 shell. The resulting composite showed excellent electrochemical cycling performance with an average fading rate of 0.014% per cycle. This improved cycle stability is greatly attributed to the suppression of Jahn-Teller distortion on the surface of spinel LiMn2O4 particles during cycling. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V.

Time-Domain and Frequency-Domain Mappings of Voltage-to-Charge and Charge-to-Voltage in Capacitive Devices

Anis Allagui, Ahmed S. Elwakil, Chunlei Wang

Summary: This paper aims to demonstrate the four possible mapping functions for voltage or charge inputs and their corresponding time-domain or frequency-domain electrical charge outputs when a capacitive device is voltage-charged. Similarly, there are four more possible combinations when the device is current-charged. The dual relationship between each pair of functions is established using single or double Fourier transforms. All eight system functions align only if a constant time- and frequency-independent capacitance is assumed.

Toward High Energy Density FeFx (x=2 and 3) Cathodes for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Jun Li, Xifei Li, Xiangyang Li, Qinting Jiang

Summary: Developing next-generation higher energy density cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) to meet the demand for lightweight and miniaturization has been challenging. Iron-based fluoride (FeFx) cathodes are promising due to their abundant resources and high theoretical capacity. However, the complex multiphase conversion reactions of FeFx cathodes limit battery performance and hinder commercialization. This review focuses on multi-electron conversion processes and discusses strategies such as conductive matrix, heteroatom doping, surface modification, and electrolyte engineering to enhance FeFx performance. It is believed that this review provides guidance for improving the cycling performance of FeFx cathodes for high energy density LIBs.
