Abstract
Cobalt can be doped into the layered alkali manganese dioxides, MxMn1-yCoyO 2 for M = K or Na, during the hydrothermal synthesis from the alkali perman ganates. A single phase is obtained up to about 5% mol cobalt. The cobalt d oping is found to enhance the conductivity by two orders of magnitude relat ive to pure KxMnO2.
