The electronic structure of cobalt-doped potassium manganese hexacyanoferrate positive electrode material for potassium-ion batteries was investigated. The cobalt doping resulted in the formation of K2-delta CoxMn1-x[Fe(CN)6] compounds with different crystal structures. The electrochemical properties of the electrode materials also showed a strong dependence on the cobalt doping, affecting both the specific capacity and redox potential.
The electronic structure of electrode materials for metal-ion batteries has a great impact on their charge compensation mechanism and, consequently, electrochemical behavior. In this paper, we report on the cobalt doping in the potassium manganese hexacyanoferrate positive electrode material for potassium-ion batteries, resulting in the formation of a system of K2-delta CoxMn1-x[Fe(CN)6] compounds with x = 0...1 and provide their comprehensive characterization including crystal structure evolution and charge compensation mechanisms upon K de/intercalation. Synthesized by a coprecipitation method, K2-delta CoxMn1-x[Fe(CN)6] forms two series of solid solutions with monoclinic (Co-poor) and cubic (Co-rich) structures. According to energy dispersive X-ray analysis, the K content diminishes with increasing x value. Electrochemical properties of electrode materials based on K2-delta CoxMn1-x[Fe(CN)6] in K-metal half cells are also strongly dependent on Co doping regarding both specific capacity and redox potential. Attempts to interpret the results led to an unexpected conclusion that cobalt has influence on iron and manganese redox potentials, forming the following oxidation sequence: Co2+/3+, Mn2+/3+, and Fe2+/3+ in K2-delta CoxMn1-x[Fe(CN)6], which is inverse to that of Co-free K2-delta Mn[Fe(CN)6] (Fe2+/3+, Mn2+/3+), as validated by ex situ, operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and 57Fe Mo''ssbauer spectroscopy.
