Nickel as positive electrode material for lithium batteries

Ni-rich LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NCM811) is one of the most promising electrode materials for Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, its instability at potentials higher than 4.3 V hinders its use in LIBs. To overcome this barrier, we have prepared a core–shell material composed of a core of NCM811 (R-3m) and a monoclinic (C2/m) Li2MnO3 shell. The structure …
