Improving the cycling stability and rate capability of LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4/C nanorod as cathode materials by LiAlO2 modification
LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4 (LMFP)@C and LMFP@LiAlO2@C nanorods are successfully synthesized by a solvothermal process followed by a calcination at H2/Ar atmosphere. The carbon coating and LiAlO2 coating does not change the morphology and particle size of LMFP, and all samples show nanorod morphology with 50–10...

LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4 (LMFP)@C and LMFP@LiAlO2@C nanorods are successfully synthesized by a solvothermal process followed by a calcination at H2/Ar atmosphere. The carbon coating and LiAlO2 coating does not change the morphology and particle size of LMFP, and all samples show nanorod morphology with 50–100 nm in width and 200–300 nm in length. The results show that LiAlO2 coating can offer rapid charge transfer channels with improved intercalation/de-intercalation kinetics of Li ions, which make an outstanding rate capability and cycling stability of as-synthesized LMFP@LiAlO2@C cathodes. As a result, LiAlO2 coating effectively improves the rate capability and cycling stability of LMFP cathode even at high discharge rates.
