We present a first-principles calculation for the structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of LiMBO3 (M = Mn, Fe, Co). Along the [0 0 1] direction, transition metals shows antiferromagnetic coupling in LiMBO3 of both hexagonal and monoclinic lattices. The calculated magnetic moment of 5 mu(B) per formula unit is close to the experimental value. These compounds are semiconductors with band gap of 0.4-2 eV, and with average intercalation voltages of 2-4.8 V. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
