Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Elevating the charge voltage of LiCoO2 increases the energy density of batteries, which is highly enticing in energy storage implementation ranging from portable electronics to e-vehicles. However, hybrid redox reactions at high voltages facilitate oxygen evolution, electrolyte decomposition and irreversible phase change, and accordingly lead to rapid battery capacity decay. Here significantly improved high-voltage cycling stability of Mg-Al-Eu co-doped LiCoO2 is demonstrated. It is found that element co-doping induces a near-surface high-entropy zone, including an innately thin disordered rock-salt shell and a dopant segregation surface. The high-entropy complex can effectively suppress oxygen evolution and near-surface structure deconstruction. The phase change reversibility between O3 and H1-3 and thermal stability of the cathode are greatly enhanced as well. As a result, the co-doped LiCoO2 exhibits a remarkable cycling performance, retaining 86.3% and 72.0% of initial capacity over 800 and 2000 cycles, respectively, with a high cut-off voltage of 4.6 V. The feasible co-doping approach broadens the perspective for the development of stable lithium-ion batteries with high operating voltages.
