Expertise
LFP Solutions
In our laboratory we have applied the solid state, sol gel and co-precipitation synthesis methods to fabricate LFP/C, LCO, LMO, and NMC cathodes materials for Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).
Fig.1 shows the X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of LiFePO4/C prepared in Starz Energies lab. The experimental data can be indexed to single olivine phase with a Pnma space group, without signs and traces of impurities (JCPDS81-1173).
In nature, LiFePO4 crystallizes in orthorhombic Olivine-type structure (Fig.2), with space group Pnma, and is known as triphylite.
The lattice parameters are a=10.33Å, b=6.01Å, and c=4.69Å; the unit cell volume is V=291.2Å3.
Expertise
LTO Solutions
Spinel lithium titanium oxide (Li4Ti5O12, LTO), a high lithium insertion/extraction voltage of approximately 1.55 V (vs. Li/Li+) and excellent cycle stability, has been successfully prepared.
Figures 2a shows the XRD patterns of Li4Ti5O12 powder. All diffraction peaks were in accordance with the standard diffraction pattern of LTO, Powder Diffraction File (PDF) number 049-0226, which can be indexed to a cubic Spinel structure with the space group of Fd-3m.
Figures 2b show the unit cells of Spinel lithium titanium oxide (Li4Ti5O12, LTO), which belong to the Fd-3m space group (No. 227).
