A. Kajiyama et al., Layered Li-Co-Mn oxide as a high-voltage positive electrode material for lithium batteries, J ELCHEM SO, 148(9), 2001, pp. A981-A983
A layered Li-Co-Mn oxide was synthesized from a host layered Na-Co-Mn oxide
by ion-exchange technique. Its electrode performance showed anomalous high
redox potential of ca. 4.5 V vs. Li/Li+ for the intercalation and deinterc
alation of lithium, although the end members of solid solution LiCoO2 and L
iMnO2 did only 4.0 V. The oxidation state of the cobalt was measured by X-r
ay photoelectron spectroscopy and was trivalent. (C) 2001 The Electrochemic
