The particle size conformed by transmission electron microscopy is around 50-150 nm. Benefiting from its small particle size and good uniformity, the obtained o-LiMnO2 can reach the maximum discharge capacity of 163 mA-h.g^-1 at 0.1 C rate after several cycles. X-ray diffraction data and electrochemical properties suggested the phase transformation from orthorhombic LiMnO2 to defect-type spinel LiMn204 with minor Li2MnO3, which resulted in the capacity fading during cycling.展开更多
