摘要
The layered Li2MnO3 is investigated by using the first-principles calculations within the GGA and GGA+U scheme, respectively. Within the GGA+U approach, the calculated intercalation voltage (ranges from 4.5V to 4.9 V) is found to be in good agreement with experiments. From the analysis of electronic structure, the pure phase Li2MnO3 is insulating, which is indicative of poor electronic-conduction properties. However, further studies of lithium ion diffusion in bulk Li2MnO3 show that unlike the two-dimensional diffusion pathways in rock salt structure layered cathode materials, lithium can diffuse in a three-dimensional pathway in Li2MnO3, with moderate lithium migration energy barrier ranges from 0.57 to 0.63 eV.
