Abstract / Description of output

Layered (1 - a)LiNi(1-y)Al(y)O(2)center dot aLi[Li1/3Ni2/3]O-2 oxides, 0 1.2. While pure NiO2-layers are able to incorporate under highpressure up to 1/3Li, the appearance of Al in the NiO2-layers hinders Li+ dissolution (Li <(1-y)/3). In addition, with increasing Al content there is a strong cationic mixing between the layers. High-frequency EPR of Ni3+ indicates that the structural interaction of LiAlyNi1-yO2 with Li[Li1/3Ni2/3]O-2 proceeds via the formation of domains comprising different amount of Ni3+ ions. The use of Li1.08Al0.09Ni0.83O2 as a cathode material in a lithium ion cells displays a first irreversible Li extraction at 4.8V, after which a reversible lithium insertion/extraction between 3.0 and 4.5V is observed on further cycling.
