Title: Anionic Redox Reaction-Induced High-Capacity and Low-Strain Cathode with Suppressed Phase Transition

Journal Article · · Joule

Layered metal oxides have attracted widespread attention as cathodes for Na-ion batteries (NIBs) because of easy synthesis, highly reversible Na de-intercalation/intercalation and high energy density. However, most reported layered oxides suffer from a complex phase transition upon a large amount of Na de-intercalation. Here we report a P2-type layered oxide cathode Na0.72[Li0.24Mn0.76]O2, which exhibits exceptionally high initial charge capacity of ~210 mAh/g (0.72 Na) based on a pure Anionic Redox Reaction (ARR). Surprisingly, it is found that the global P2 structure can be maintained with minimal volume change (1.35%) upon complete removal of Na+ ions. This is due to the reduced Columbic repulsion associated with ARR and consequent suppression of the phase transition as observed in other P2-materials. Here we reveal for the first time that ARR has the functionality of stabilizing the structure, in addition to its role of increasing the capacity which has already been known. This would pave the way for the further improvement of high-energy-density NIBs.
