摘要
The nonstoichiometric LiFePO4/C core-shell composites (as microscale LiFePO4 cores coated with 3-5 nm thin carbon shells) are synthesized by a novel solid-state reaction method. All samples show outstanding coulombic efficiency (about 100%) and good battery cyclability, along with high tap density (>1.70 g cm(-3)). On this basis, the electrochemical properties of two different core-shell composites as Li1.02Fe0.99PO4/C and Li0.98Fe1.01PO4/C are compared. The results show that the rate performance of Li1.02Fe0.99PO4/C is obviously better than the rate performance of Li0.98Fe1.01PO4/C. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
