Mg2+ doped LiFePO4 was synthesized from Li3PO4, FeSO4 and MgSO4 by a hydrothermal synthesis at 150 °C(Li1-xMgxPO4, x=0.00, 0.01,0.02,0.04,0.06). The samples were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and charge-discharge test. The results showed that Mg2+ dissolved in the LiFePO4 lattice. When the content is in the range of 0 to 6 mol%, Mg2+ caused the shrinkage of LiFePO4 cell volume. The capacity of doped and undoped samples at low discharging rate was similar, about 145mAhg-1 for 0.2C. But the sample doped with 2-4 mol% Mg2+ has higher capacity and longer cycle lifetime than the undoped one at 5C.

Spinel Li4-xKxTi5O12(x=0, 0.03) were successfully synthesized by a traditional solid-state method and systematically investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the charge-discharge test, respectively. The results demonstrated that Li3.97K0.03Ti5O12exhibited much better rate performance in comparsion with Li4Ti5O12. At 0.2 C and 10 C, it delivered a discharge capacity of 173 mAh g-1and 124 mAh g-1respectively, and after 100 cycles at 10 C, 96.1% of its initial capacity was retained.

Abstract Here, we report a facile synthesis of β-SnWO4 nanoparticles via microwave heat treatment using SnCl2 and H2WO4, in the presence of tamarind seed powder. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the crystalline nature, revealing a cubic structure of β-SnWO4 nanoparticles. Morphological features were visualized using a scanning electron microscope which exhibited homogenously distributed clusters of nanoparticles which were further confirmed using transmission electron microscope. The micrographs also displayed some porosity. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the elemental contents such as tin, oxygen and tungsten in the same stoichiometric ratio as expected by the respective empirical formula. High-resolution transmission electron microscope was used to find the d-spacing which was ultimately used to analyze the structural parameters. The spectrum obtained using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy illuminates different stretching vibrations. Additionally, Barrett-Joyner-Halenda analysis was carried out to investigate N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm as well as to govern the pore size distribution. Cyclic voltammetry measurements were implemented to analyze the ongoing electrode reactions throughout the charge/discharge for β-SnWO4 nanostructures. The galvanometric charge/discharge curves for β-SnWO4 have also been discussed. A high specific capacitance (600 mAhg-1 at 0.1 C) and excellent columbic efficiency (~100%) was achieved.

LiMn2O4 nanofibers were prepared via electrospinning and followed by calcination. The surface morphology of as-spun and pure LiMn2O4 nanofibers was characterized by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with an average diameter of 180 nm. After calcination at 800 °C in air for 5 h, charge/discharge capacity of pure LiMn2O4 nanofibers was measured in the potential range of 3.0 to 4.3 V. Battery testing showed that LiMn2O4 have a high discharge capacity of 80 mAh/g and 85% of the initial charge capacity was maintained for 5 cycles.
