摘要

Conversion reactions have made LiF-metal oxide (MO) composites with attractive specific capacities compelling candidates for the next generation of lithium-ion battery cathode materials. However, it is necessary for the high charge voltage (> 4.5 V) to drive the redox reaction of MOs and break a strong ionic bond between Li+ and F upon charge. It is a crucial way for decrease in the charge voltage to lower the activation energy barrier of the redox process between LiF and MOs. A novel conversion cathode LiF-V2O3 system is proposed in this study. Unlike most of the previously reported LiF-MOs systems, the LiF-V2O3 system can work at the lower charge cut off voltage of 4.3 V. It delivers a reversible specific capacity of 197 mAh g−1 at C/20 rate in the voltage range of 2–4.3 V. Cyclic voltammetry data suggest a dominant contribution of pseudocapacitance effect in the conversion reaction of the LiF-V2O3 sample.
