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.
A high rate and cycle performance LiFe0.5Mn0.5PO4/C material was obtained by synergies of a surfactant-assisted solid state method and carbon content.
