The structural and thermal stability of $Li[Co_{0.1}Ni_{0.15}Li_{0.2}Mn_{0.55}]O_2$ electrode during cycling process was studied. The sample was prepared by simple combustion method. Although there were irreversible changes on the initial cycle, O3 stacking for $Li[Co_{0.1}Ni_{0.15}Li_{0.2}Mn_{0.55}]O_2$ structure was retained during the first and subsequent cycling process. Impedance of the test cell was decreased after the first charge-discharge process, which would be of benefit to intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ion on subsequent cycling. As expected, cycling test for 75 times increased impedance of the cell a little, instead, thermal stability of $Li[Co_{0.1}Ni_{0.15}Li_{0.2}Mn_{0.55}]O_2$ was improved. Moreover, based on DSC analysis, the initial exothermic peak was shifted to high temperature range and the amount of heat was also decreased after cycling test, which displayed that thermal stability was not deteriorated during cycling.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop $Li_xV_3O_8$ composite cathode for lithium polymer battery. We investigated electrochemical, interfacial properties and charge/discharge cycling of $Li_xV_3O_8$/SPE/Li cell. The radius of semicircle associated with the interfacial resistance of $Li_xV_3O_8$/SPE/Li cell increased very slowly during discharge process from 100% SOC to 90% SOC. And then the cell resistance was increased at discharge process from 10% SOC to 0% SOC. The discharge capacity based on $Li_xV_3O_8$ was 212mAh/g at 15th cycle. The $Li_xV_3O_8$/SPE/Li cell has a good properties.

Li-incorporated ZnO thin films were deposited by using ultrasonic-assisted spray pyrolysis deposition (SPD) system. To investigate the effect of Li-incorporation on the performance of ZnO thin films, the structural, electrical, and optical properites of the ZnO thin films were analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emssion scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Hall effect measurement, and UV-Vis spectrophotometry with variation of the Li concentraion in the ZnO sources. Without incorporation of Li element, the ZnO surface showed large spiral domains. As the Li content increases, the size of spiral domains decreased gradually, and finally formed mixed small grain and one-dimensional nanorod-like structures on the surface. This morphological evolution was explained based on an anti-surfactant effect of Li atoms on the ZnO growth surface. In addition, the Li-incorporation changed the optical and electrical properties of the ZnO thin films by modifying the crystalline defect structures by doping effects.

Spinel $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$ has received great attention as one of the most outstanding cathode materials for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) because of its high energy density resulting from the operating voltage of ~ 4.7 V (vs. $Li^+/Li$) based on the $Ni^{2+}/Ni^{4+}$ redox reaction. However, $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$ is known to suffer from undesirable side reactions with the electrolyte at high voltage as well as Mn dissolution from the structure. These issues prevent the realization of the optimal electrochemical performance of $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$. Extensive research has been conducted to overcome these issues. This review presents an overview of the various surface-modification methods available to improve the electrochemical properties of $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$ and provides perspectives on further research aimed at the application of $LiNi_{0.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$ as a cathode material in commercialized LIBs.

The $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ of anode material for the hybrid capacitor was coated using $CePO_4$, $M_3(PO_4)_2$ (M=Mg, Zn). The capacitance of phosphate coated $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ was found to be lower than that of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$, whereas the equivalent series resistance was higher than that of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$. With an increase in cycle number, the base of cylindrical cell exhibited swelling due to gas generated from the reaction between $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ and electrolyte. The swelling cycle number of phosphate coated $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ was higher than that of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ due to improvement in electrochemical stability. Based on the results, it is proposed that phosphate coating can be employed as a barrier layer to control the gassing reaction by isolating the $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ particle from electrolyte solution.

A facile method for surface coating with $Li_2TiF_6$ which has a high lithium-ion conductivity, on $LiMn_2O_4$ spinel cathode material for high performance lithium ion batteries. The surface coating is performed by using a co-precipitation method with $Li_2CO_3$ powder and $H_2TiF_6$ solution under room temperature and atmospheric pressure without special equipment. Total coating amount of $Li_2TiF_6$ is carefully controlled from 0 to 10 wt.% based on the active material of $LiMn_2O_4$. They are evaluated by a systematic combination of analyses comprising with XRD, SEM, TEM and ICP. It is found that the surface modification of $Li_2TiF_6$ is very beneficial to high cycle life and excellent rate capability by reducing surface failure and supporting lithium ions transportation on the surface. The best coating condition is found to have a high cycle life of $103mAh\;g^{-1}$ at the 100th cycle and a rate capability of $102.9mAh\;g^{-1}$ under 20 C. The detail electrochemical behaviors are investigated by AC impedance and galvanostatic charge and discharge test.

$LiCoO_{2}$ powders were synthesized at various temperatures using lithium hydroxide and cobalt hydroxide as precursors prepared by precipitation process and freeze-drying. In this study, the$LiCoO_{2}$ samples were synthesized via a solid state reaction with various LiOH concentration between 10 % and 30 % excess. And $LiCoO_{2}$powders were calcined at 600~$800^{\circ}C$ in a short time. Measurements of XRD and SEM were performed to characterize the properties of the prepared materials. The effect of amount of Li ions on the structural change in powder has been examined using the XRD analysis. For the not added excess of LiOH, CoOOH phase presented in the XRD pattern of $LiCoO_{2}$ due to loss of Li ions during firing. The morphology and particle size of the powders were examined using SEM. The obtained powders are high temperature-$LiCoO_{2}$HT-LiCoO$_{2}$) and homogeneous with the range of grain size in the order of hundreds of nanometers. The effects of variation of LiOH concentration on the structural change in powder were investigated using the Rietveld analysis. As an analysis result, c/a is constant by 4.99 on all occasions. Finally, the structure of HT-$LiCoO_{2}$ was simulated by the commercial software $Creius^{2}$(Molecular Simulations, Inc.) from the results of Rietveld analysis.
