Improved cycling properties of a Li-rich and Mn-based Li1.38Ni0.25Mn0.75O2.38 porous microspherical cathode material via micromorphological control

Abstract

The as-prepared LMNO-850 with 100–200 nm spherical-like shape primary particles exhibits superior cycling performance even at high discharge rate. The capacity fading in the first 50 cycles may be caused by interfacial side-reactions between electrode and electrolyte.
