A basic thin film study of spinel LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4} as a possible cathode material for lithium secondary cells
- Keio Univ., Kouhoku, Yokohama (Japan)
In a series of fundamental studies on the cathode active materials for a lithium secondary cell using geometrically well-defined sample electrodes, thin films of spinel LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4} on a platinum plate were investigated in this work in an LiClO{sub 4}/propylene carbonate solution. These pyrolytically prepared films exhibit reversible extraction/insertion behavior for lithium under galvanostatic charge/discharge cycling between 4.3--3.5 V. The chemical diffusion coefficient of lithium in Li{sub x}Mn{sub 2}O{sub 4} determined by the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) was in the order of 10{sup {minus}7}--10{sup {minus}10} cm{sup 2} {center_dot} s{sup {minus}1} within a spinel single-phase region of 0.6 < x < 1.0 and increased with increasing x.
