Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrodes, and more specifically, relates to a lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material with surface heterojunction and bulk doping as well as a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have gradually become the main way to power portable electronic devices and electric vehicles due to their high energy density, long cycle life and environmental friendliness. In these batteries, the cathode material is a key factor in determining battery performance, cost and safety. Currently, the main commercial cathode materials, such as LiCoO 2 , NCM and LiFePO 4 The specific capacity of lithium-ion batteries is low, making it difficult for lithium-ion batteries to be used in many fields. Therefore, lithium-rich manganese-based materials have become ideal candidates for the next generation of lithium-ion batteries due to their high theoretical capacity (>250 mAh / g) and low cost. The high capacity characteristics of this type of positive electrode material come from its Li 2 MnO 3 The components can be activated at high voltages above 4.5 V to trigger the oxygen anion charge compensation mechanism, thereby providing additional capacity. It is this unique mixed anion and cation redox mechanism that makes LMRO a promising candidate cathode material for the next generation of high-energy lithium-ion batteries.
[0003] However, lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials under high voltage will have problems such as low first coulombic efficiency, severe capacity and voltage decay, poor rate performance and poor cycle stability. In order to deal with these phenomena, researchers have been actively exploring various strategies, including element doping, surface treatment and structural optimization. However, the capacity and cycle stability of lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials still need to be further improved, and they have great potential for practical application.
