$LiMn_{1.92}Co_{0.08}O_4$ and $LiNi_{0.7}Co_{0.3}O_2$ synthesized by a simplified combustion method had good electrochemical properties. Mixtures $LiMn_{1.92}Co_{0.08}O_4$-x wt$\%$ $LiNi_{0.7}Co_{0.3}O_2$ (x=9, 23, 33, 41, and 47) were prepared by milling for 30 min and their electrochemical properties were investigated. The electrode with x=9 had a relatively large first discharge capacity (109.9 mAh/g at 0.1 C) and good cycling performance. The decrease in the discharge capacity of the mixture electrodes with cycling is considered to result mainly from the degradation of $LiNi_{0.7}Co_{0.3}O_2$, caused by coating of $LiNi_{0.7}Co_{0.3}O_2$ with Mn dissolved from $LiMn_{1.92}Co_{0.08}O_4$.

A relationship $(T_c = -17.869C^2+1840.2C-46623)$ between Curie Temperature$(T_c)$ and (C), $Li_2O$ mole percent(%) was established from the measurement results of Curie temperature $(T_c)$) analysed by DTA(Differential Thermal Analysis) in the range from 48.50 to 49.00 $Li_2O$ mole %. Congruent melt composition of $LiTaO_3$ single crystal was to be 48.65 $Li_2O$ mole % and its Curie temperature was also determined to be $610{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ from the results of Curie temperature difference, ${\Delta}T (T_{c(Top)}-T{_c(Tail)})$ of Czochralski grown $LiTaO_3$ crystals and the distribution coefficient(k). The k was calculated from $LiO_2$ mole ratio of initial melt to final melt and initial crystal to final crystal in the range from 48.60 to 48.70 $Li_2O$ mole %.

In this study, $Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode material and LiPON solid electrolyte were manufactured into thin films, and the possibility of their use in thin-film batteries was researched. When the RTP treatment was performed after $Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode thin-film deposition on the SUS substrate by a sputtering method, a ${\beta}-Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode thin film was successfully manufactured. The LiPON solid electrolyte was prepared by a reactive sputtering method using a $Li_3PO_4$ target and $N_2$ gas, and a homogeneous and flat thin film was deposited on a $Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode thin film. In order to evaluate the electrochemical properties of the $Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode thin films, coin cells using only a liquid electrolyte were prepared and the charge/discharge test was conducted. As a result, the amorphous thin film of RTP treated at $600^{\circ}C$ showed the highest initial discharge capacity of about $60{\mu}Ah/cm^2$. In cases of coin cells using liquid/solid double electrolyte, the discharge capacities of the $Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode thin films were comparable to those without solid LiPON electrolyte. It was revealed that $Li_2MnSiO_4$ cathode thin films with LiPON solid electrolyte were applicable in thin film batteries.

The layered nickel oxides (LiNiO$_2$) have been studied for possible use as cathode materials i3l 4V lithium batteries. Although LiCoO$_2$ has been known as the best candidate material for Li-ion batteries, which produces the best performance LiNiO$_2$ is generally accepted as an attractive cathode material, because of its various advantages such as lower cost higher discharge capacity and better reversibility. In this investigation, we calculated the electric state of LiNiO$_2$ using DV-X$\alpha$ molecular orbital method in order to obtain the information of chemical bonding among the Li, Ni and O. In LiNiO$_2$, alternate layers of Li and Ni occupy the octahedral sites of a cubic close packing of oxide ions, making up a rhombohedral structure with an R-3m space group, Li in 3a, Ni in 3b, and O in 6c sites. On the basis of this, we made the cluster model and studied ionization of each atoms and interaction between atoms according to Mullilcen population analysis.
