The charge-discharge test results show that the rate performance and low-temperature performance of LiFePO4 are greatly improved by the surface treatment. Even at 20C rate, the discharge specific capacity of 100.9 mA.h/g was obtained by the AZO-coated LiFePO4 at room temperature. At -20 ℃, the discharge specific capacity at 0.2C for un-coated LiFePO4 and the coated one are 50.3 mA.h/g and 119.4 mA.h/g, respectively. It should be attributed to the electrically conductive AZO-coating which increases the electronic conductivity of LiFePO4. Furthermore, the surface-coating increases the tap-density of LiFePO4. The results indicate that the AZO-coated LiFePO4 is a good candidate of cathode material for applying in lithium power batteries.展开更多

In this study the kinetic parameters of a blue-light stimulated luminescence (BLS) decay curve from Al2O3:C sample irradiated at 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 Gy beta doses were obtained using the same basic methods with some modifications applied and also by using our suggestion: Active-OSL Approximation (AOSL). The results were compared with those of other studies on the trap parameters of Al2O3:C material.展开更多
