Understanding the cation ordering transition in high-voltage spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 by doping Li instead of Ni

Abstract We determined how Li doping affects the Ni/Mn ordering in high-voltage spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4(LNMO) by using neutron diffraction, TEM image, electrochemical measurements, and NMR data. The doped Li occupies empty octahedral interstitials (16c site) before the ordering transition, and can mov...
