Abstract:
Sustainable power requirements of multifarious portable electronic applications demand the development of high energy and high power density cathode materials for lithium ion batteries. This paper reports a method for rapid synthesis of a cobalt based layered cathode material doped with mixed dopants Cu and Mg. The cathode material exhibits ordered layered structure and delivers discharge capacity of ∼200 mA h g(-1) at 0.2C rate with high capacity retention of 88% over the investigated 100 cycles.

Spontaneous redox reactions occur abundantly in nature. The chemical reaction occurring in a disposable AA battery powering our remote controls is one such example of a spontaneous redox reaction. Another example is the immersion of coiled copper wire into an aqueous silver nitrate solution. The reaction shows a gradual, visually impressive color change from colorless to bright blue and the formation of a grey precipitate on the copper wire. In this experiment,...
