Abstract

A novel, Na-pillared LiMnPO4 (Li0.78Na 0.22MnPO4) with an alluaudite structure is successfully prepared for the first time and proposed as a new positive electrode for Li rechargeable batteries. Approximately 0.8 Li+ ions are reversibly extracted from and reinserted into LiMnPO4via Mn2+/Mn 3+ redox reactions. The alluaudite LiMnPO4 (a-LiMnPO 4) structure is sufficiently robust during repeated Li extraction/insertion such that ∼92% of the initial capacity is retained after 50 charge/discharge cycles. An ex situ XRD study of the electrochemical cell during cycling indicates that Li de/intercalation in alluaudite LiMnPO 4 occurs via the one-phase (solid-solution) reaction instead of the two-phase reaction observed in olivine LiMnPO4.
