Simulations for new battery materials

Using first-principles density functional calculations, LiNiO2-related cathode materials are studied. It is found that in contrast to previous studies, the hole state in Li doped NiO shows predominately Ni character and is accompanied by a local Jahn-Teller distortion. We show that this is consisten...
