Evaluation of structural and physical properties of members bridging Li3M2SbO6 and Li4MSbO6 by tuning M2+/M3+ (M = Co, Ni) content
摘要
Layered oxides containing redox-capable transition metals find huge application as electrode materials in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In the present work, a new series of rock salt superstructured oxides possessing Co2+/Co3+ and Ni2+/Ni3+ redox systems has been explored. The intermediate compositions bridging the Li3M2SbO6 and Li4MSbO6 (M = Ni, Co) series have been investigated for their structure, optical and magnetic properties. Le Bail fittings of the PXRD patterns revealed all the compositions Li3(Lix
