The strategy of Mo doping combined with LiBO2 coating is proposed to improve the performance of NCM material, including reducing cation mixing and surface side reactions, providing a new approach for the commercial utilization of NCM.
The advantages of affordable price and large capacity have made LiNixCoyMn1_x_yO2 (NCM) become a promi-nent topic in contemporary energy research. However, problems such as severe cation mixing and surface side reactions have critically hindered its commercial utilization. Herein, we propose a strategy of bulk-to-surface, namely Mo doping combined with LiBO2 coating, to synthetically boost the property of NCM. Considering that Mo6+ (0.62 & ANGS;) could reduce cationic disorder, whose bond energy is stronger than M-O, it contributes greatly to the stabilization of internal structure. What's more, H3BO3 not only consumes surface residual alkali, but also produces LiBO2 with good ionic conductivity, which can promote the migration rate of Li+. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and first principles elucidated the feasibility of doping-to-coating. In addition, structural evolution implied that the improved cyclic stability is due to the effective inhibition of serious structure evolution in the modified material. The discovery provides a novel thought for further commercialization of NCM.
