Designing New Lithium-Excess Cathode Materials from Percolation Theory: Nanohighways in Li x Ni 2–4 x /3 Sb x /3 O 2
Abstract
Increasing lithium content is shown to be a successful strategy for designing new cathode materials. In layered LixNi2–4x/3Sbx/3O2 (x = 1.00–1.15), lithium excess improves both discharge capacity and capacity retention at 1C. Structural studies disclose a complex nanostructure pattern of Li–Sb and Ni–Sb ordering where the interface between these domains forms the correct local configuration for good lithium mobility. The <1 nm Li–Sb stripe domains and their interfaces thereby effectively act as nanohighways for lithium diffusion.
