The tailored surface modification of electrode materials is crucial to realize the wanted electronic and electrochemical properties. In this regard, a dexterous carbon encapsulation technique can be one of the most essential preparation methods for the electrode materials for lithium rechargeable batteries. For this purpose, DL-malic acid ($C_4H_6O_5$) was here used as the carbon source enabling an amorphous carbon layer to be formed on the surface of Si nanoparticles at enough low temperature to maintain their own physical or chemical properties. Various structural characterizations proved that the bulk structure of Si doesn't undergo any discernible change except for the evolution of C-C bond attributed to the formed carbon layer on the surface of Si. The improved electrochemical performance of the carbon-encapsulated Si compared to Si can be attributed to the enhanced electrical conductivity by the surface carbon layer as well as its role as a buffering agent to absorb the volume expansion of Si during lithiation and delithiation.

This study introduces a systematic approach to selecting the internal parameters applied to the equivalent electrical-circuit model (EECM) of a lithium titanium oxide ($Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$; LTO) rechargeable cell. Based on the dynamic characteristic of the cell, a simplified EECM consisting of an open-circuit voltage (OCV), an ohmic resistance, and an RC ladder is fabricated. To select the internal parameters of a simplified EECM, experiments on discharge capacity, OCV, and discharge/charge resistances are performed using hybrid pulse power characterization and direct current internal resistance (DCIR) measurements over the full state-of-charge (SOC) range. The experimental results of the LTO rechargeable cell highlight the importance of correct selection of internal parameters that can reduce EECM errors. This study clearly provides experimental procedures, internal parameters results, and EECM guidelines for adaptive control-based SOC estimation for LTO rechargeable cells.

Adopting mobile chargers (MC) in rechargeable wireless sensors network (R-WSN) to recharge sensors can increase network efficiency (e.g., reduce MC travel distance per tour, reduce MC effort, and prolong WSN lifetime). In this study, we propose a mechanism to split the sensing field into partitions that may be equally spaced but differ in distance to the base station. Moreover, we focus on minimizing the MC effort by providing a new charging mechanism called the sector-based charging schedule (SBCS), which works to dispatch the MC in charging trips to the sector that sends many charging requests and suggesting an efficient sensor-charging algorithm. Specifically, we first utilize the high ability of the BS to divide the R-WSN field into sectors then it select the cluster head for each sector to reduce the intra-node communication. Second, we formulate the charging productivity as NP-hard problem and then conduct experimental simulations to evaluate the performance of the proposed mechanism. An extensive comparison is performed with other mechanisms. Experimental results demonstrate that the SBCS mechanism can prolong the lifetime of R-WSNs by increasing the charging productivity about 20% and reducing the MC effort by about 30%.

$LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ cathode materials prepared from different precursors in lithium rechargeable batteries were characterized by various analytical methods. $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ powders were synthesized by using solid-state reaction method and their physical and chemical properties were analyzed by XRD, SEM, particle size analyzer and TCP-AES. These materials showed different crystallinity, particle size, surface morphology and chemical composition. Also, the charge/discharge cycling of $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ electrodes was carried out under various cut-off voltages and it showed different behaviors. It was found that the electrochemical cyclability of $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ was strongly related to its crystallinity.

We report the discovery of Li-rich $Li_{1+x}[(Ni_{0.225}Co_{0.15}Mn_{0.625})_{1-y}V_y]O_2$ as a cathode material for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries in which a small amount of tetravalent vanadium ($V^{4+}$) is selectively and completely incorporated into the manganese sites in the lattice structure. The unwanted oxidation of vanadium to form a $V_2O_5-like$ secondary phase during high-temperature crystallization is prevented by uniformly dispersing the vanadium ions in coprecipitated $[(Ni_{0.225}Co_{0.15}Mn_{0.625})_{1-y}V_y](OH)_2$ particles. Upon doping with $V^{4+}$ ions, the initial discharge capacity (>$275mA\;h\;g^{-1}$), capacity retention, and voltage decay characteristics of the Li-rich layered oxides are improved significantly in comparison with those of the conventional undoped counterpart.
