Journal of Electrochemistry

The cathode materials of nanosiged LiFePO4 were prepared by hydrothermal templating synthesis.The grain sizes and electrochemical performance of LiFePO4 were controlled by surfactant.It was shown that the grain sizes varied from less than a hundred to hundreds nanometers by the SEM images.In the charge/discharge tests,the discharge capacities of the sample as a lithium ion battery were achieved to 150 mAh/g at 0.1C,140 mAh/g at 1C,and 126 mAh/g at 2C,with good cycling performance.

Ordered porous titanium phosphate materials were prepared by using the surfactant template combined with the sol-gel method.The samples were characterized by small angle X-ray diffraction(SA-XRD) method,N2 adsorption/desorption techniques,high resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM) and element analysis.It is found that the calcination temperature is a big influence on the porous structure,and electrochemical performance of the titanium phosphate materials.,and the mesoporous titanium phosphate showed good performance in the electrochemical test,the first discharge capacity is 94 mAh/g at the current density of 150 mA/g.On the other hand,the no porous material with a low capacity of 37 mAh/g under the same charge-discharge condition.

Journal of Electrochemistry

LiFePO4 and LiFePO4 doped with Cu2+ ions were synthesized by solid-state reactions.The structure of LiFePO4 and the Fe valence were analyzed by the XRD(X-ray diffraction) and XPS(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) respectively.The Cu doping position in LiFePO4 is discussed.It has found that the volume of LiFePO4 by doping Cu2+ ions is reduced.The minim Cu2+ ions doping does not almost change the binding energy of Fe2p1/2 in LiFePO4.According to the experiment results,we conclude that most of the Cu2+ ions substitute the Fe2+ ions in LiFePO4 when a small amount of Cu2+ ions doping is occurred.
