Pristine LNCM and LNCMA as Li-rich cathode materials for lithium ion batteries were synthesized via a sol–gel route. The Al-substituted LNCM sample exhibits an enhanced high rate performance and superior cyclability.
The nanocrystalline-Li2FeSiO4 with carbon frameworks, possessing high-capacity and high-rate performance, is a promising next-generation cathode material for high-power lithium-ion batteries.
