We prepared orthorhombic $LiMnO_2$ by emulsion drying method. The thermo-gravimetric measurement and X-ray diffraction studies indicated that the orthorhombic $LiMnO_2$ phase was formed above $800^{\circ}C$ by oxygen evaporation process from $LiMn_2O_4$ and $Li_2MnO_3$. In this process, we could control the ordering of $LiMnO_2$ with heating rate. It was observed that electrochemical properties depended on the ordering of this material; the ordered one exhibited good capacity retention, whereas the disordered one suffered capacity fading upon cycling, especially in the 3 V region. Transmission electron microscopic (TEM) study showed that this difference is related with difference in the stress relieving effects in the samples.

Well-defined orthorhombic $LiMnO_2\;and\;LiCo_{0.1}Mn_{0.9}O_2$ were synthesized by a solid-state reaction and quenching process. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results revealed that the as-synthesized powders showed an orthorhombic phase of a space group with Pmnm. The $Li/LiMnO_2\;and\;Li/LiCo_{0.1}Mn_{0.9}O_2$ cells were constituted and cycled galvanostatically in the voltage range of 2.0-4.3 V vs. $Li/Li^+$ at a current density of $0.5\;mA\;cm^{-2}$ at room temperature and $50^{\circ}C$, respectively. The results demonstrated that the highest specific capacity of $Li/LiMnO_2$ cells at room temperature and $50^{\circ}C$ was 95 and $155\;mAh\;g^{-1}$, respectively. As for $Li/LiCo_{0.1}Mn_{0.9}O_2$ cells, the highest specific capacity at room temperature and $50^{\circ}C$ was 160 and $250\;mAh\;g^{-l}$, respectively. It could be seen that the performance of $Li/LiCo_{0.1}Mn_{0.9}O_2$ cells was better than that of $Li/LiMnO_2$ cells.

Orthorhombic type LiCo$_{x}$Mn$_{1-x}$ O$_2$(0$\leq$x$\leq$0.14) oxides have been synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of (Co$_{x}$Mn$_{1-x}$ )$_3$O$_4$precursors and LiOH aqueous solution at 17$0^{\circ}C$. As-synthesized powders showed well-ordered $\beta$-MaMnO$_2$structures, and the products were single crystalline particle oxides from TEM observations. The particle size decreased with increasing the amount of Co substituent. Much more improved capacity upon 100 cyclings was clearly seen in orthorhombic LiCo$_{0.1}$Mn$_{0.9}$O$_2$, comparing to orthorhombic LiMnO$_2$./TEX>.EX>.

Orthorhombic $LiMnO_2$(o-$LiMnO_2$) has attracted public attentions as a cathode materials of Lithium ion battery because it has low cost and high theoretical discharge capacity of 285mAh $g^{-1}$. In our study, o-$LiMnO_2$ is synthesized by quenching method. To verify their phase structure, X-ray diffraction is accomplished. Test cells are assembled to check electrochemical characteristics using acquired o-$LiMnO_2$ cathode and carbon anode. Charge/Discharge cycling was carried out for 50cycles. And impedance was measured at 1, 2, 5, 10, 30, 50cycle. During cycle test, the max discharge capacity was recorded 139mAh $g^{-1}$ at 10cycle.

Orthorhombic $LiMnO_2$ was synthesized by solid-state reaction using $LiOH{\cdot}H_{2}O$ and $Mn_{2}O_{3}$ as starting material. Its electrochemical properties as cathode in lithium batteries were examined. X-ray diiffraction revealed that the $LiMnO_2$ compound showed a well-defined orthorhombic phase of a space group with Pmnm. The capacity of $LiMnO_2$ agreed well with its specific surface area and grinding treatment was effective in improving cycling performance. For lithium polymer battery applications. the $LiMnO_2$ cell was characterized electrochemically by charge-discharge experiments. And the relationship between the characteristics of powder and electrochemical properties was studied in this research. A maximum discharge capacity of $160-170mAhg^{-1}$ for $LiMnO_2/Li$ cell was achieved.

$\o-LiMnO_2$ is known to have poor cycle performance causing the irreversible phase transformation on cycling. In this paper, the effect of chemical substitution on improving cycle performance of $o-LiMnO_2$ was studied at the compositions of $LiCr_xMn_{1-x}O_2$(x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4). XRD is showed that structure of $LiCr_xMn_{1-x}O_2$ transformed from orthorhombic to spinel according to the increase of substitute degree. For lithium ion battery applications, $LiCr_xMn_{1-x}O_2$/Li cell were characterized electrochemically by charge/discharge cycling.
