Improving Electrochemical Properties of LiCoPO4 by Mn Substitution: A Case Research on LiCo0.5Mn0.5PO4

LiCo0.5Mn0.5PO4 is readily prepared via a modified hydrothermal route to investigate the effect of Mn substitution on LiCoPO4. The results show that the Mn substitution plays a profound role in reducing the particle size and stabilizing the surface of the olivine materials, thus leading to highly im...

Summary:LiCo0.5Mn0.5PO4 is readily prepared via a modified hydrothermal route to investigate the effect of Mn substitution on LiCoPO4. The results show that the Mn substitution plays a profound role in reducing the particle size and stabilizing the surface of the olivine materials, thus leading to highly improved electrochemical properties versus the pure LiCoPO4. The LiCo0.5Mn0.5PO4 can deliver a reversible capacity of 126 mAh g−1 and maintain 88% of that over 30 cycles, thereby manifesting its potential for energy storage application.
