Abstract
Yttrium fluoride YF3 layer with different coating contents is successfully covered on the surface of Li1.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13O2 via a common wet chemical approach. The XRD, SEM, TEM, and charge-discharge tests are applied to investigate the influence of YF3 layer on the micro-structural, morphology, and electrochemical properties of Li1.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13O2. And the electrochemical test results demonstrate that the YF3-coated LMNCO samples exhibit the improved electrochemical properties. The 2wt.%YF3-coated LMNCO delivers a discharge capacity of 116.6 mAh g−1 at 5 C rate, much larger than that (95.6 mAh g−1) of the pristine one. Besides, the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetric results indicate that the YF3 coating layer can promote the optimization formation of SEI film and reversibility of the electrochemical redox.
