Abstract

Spinel LiMn 2O 4 was modified with Y 2O 3 coating by a chemical process. The crystal structures of the as-prepared samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The charge/discharge characteristics of the modified samples were evaluated at different rates between 3.0 and 4.4V. The discharge capacities of 2.0 wt.% Y 2O 3-coated LiMn 2O 4 are 116 mAh·g -1, 99.7mAh·g -1, 93.3mAh·g -1 and 82.9mAh·g -1 at 0.1C, 0.5C, 1C and 2C rates (at 20°C). The cycle abilities improvement of the spinel LiMn 2O 4 coated with Y 2O 3 are demonstrated at elevated temperature (55°C) and high rates (2C). From the analysis of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), the improvement of cycle ability may be attributed to the suppression on the formation of the passivating films and the reduction of Mn dissolution, which result from the surface modification with Y 2O 3.
