摘要
Thin films of LiMn2O4 were prepared by electron beam evaporation technique from a lithium rich target at a substrate temperature of 473 K in an oxygen partial pressure of 4-5 x 10(-4) mbar. The as deposited films were found to be X-ray amorphous. The films were annealed in the temperature range 500-1000 K for 4 hours in a controlled oxygen environment. The initial crystallization was observed for the LMn2O4 films annealed at temperature greater than 673 K. The films exhibited predominantly (111) orientation representing cubic spine] structure. The grain size increased with the increase of annealing temperature. The AFM and FTIR studies were also performed to understand the microsiructure of films for effective utilization as cathode material.
