Nanjing researchers design new Li-rich layered cathode

Green Car Congress

LLROs are usually consist of two phases of Li 2 MnO 3 (LMO) with a space group of C2/m and LiTMO 2 (TM refers to a transition metal element) with a space group of R-3m. The ordinary modification of LLROs is usually aimed at xLi 2 MnO 3 ·(1?x)LiTMO x)LiTMO 2 , the solid solution of two layered components.
