Novel MOF shell-derived surface modification of Li-rich layered oxide cathode

(Science China Press) The poor cycling stability and low rate performance become the big bottleneck of high specific capacity Li-rich layered oxide materials. Recently, a research team led by Prof. L. Q. Mai at Wuhan University of Technology developed a unique NiCo nanodots decorated carbon shell on Li1.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13O2 nanoparticles. The unique protective C&NiCo shell allows fast electron and ion transport and provides a robust structure for LLO. The obtained LLO@C&NiCo cathode exhibits en...
