Li1.02YxMn2-x O4 with different Y^3+ contents have good crystal structure, Y^3+ doping makes the lattice parameter and crystal volume small. Cyclic vohammogram testing result shows that a small quantity of Y^3+ doping has no influence on the Li^+ deinsertion-insertion process, but Y^3+ doping decreases the interacting force among Li^+ , and then availably avoids the energy level splitting. The electrochemical property testing indicates that the initial discharge ca- pacity at x =0.02 is 117.2 mAh·g^-1 and remains 96.9% with 113.6 mAhg^-1 after 20 cycles, which explains that Y^3+ doping effectively restricts Jahn-Teller effect and stabilizes the crystal structure. AC analysis shows that conductivity of the samples is clearly improved due to Y^3+ doping.展开更多

Herein,polyanion(BO3)^3-doped Li3V2(PO4)3 cathode materials were successfully synthesized via a wet coordination method. The effects of(BO3)^3- doping content on crystal structure, morphology and electrochemical performance were explored by X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), cyclic voltammetry(CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS). All the asprepared samples have the same monoclinic structure;among them, Li3V2(PO4)(2.75)(BO3)(0.15) sample has relatively uniform and optimized particle size. In addition, this sample has the highest discharge capacity and the best cycling stability, with an initial discharge capacity of 120.4mAh·g^-1, and after 30 cycles at a rate of 0.1C, the discharge capacity still remains 119.3 mAh·g^-1. It is confirmed that moderate polyanion(BO3)^3- doping can rearrange the electronic structure of the bulk Li3V2(PO4)3,lower the charge transfer resistance and further improve the electrochemical behaviors.展开更多
