摘要

P2-type Na2/3Ni1/3Mn2/3O2 cathodes are promising candidate for Sodium-ion batteries. While the cycle stability should be enhanced for its commercial application. Given that lanthanum (La) is chemically inert and forms a strong La–O bond, it was doped into Na2/3Ni1/3Mn2/3O2 to improve structural stability. A series of La-doped Na2/3Ni1/3Mn2/3O2 (NNMO-La-x) were prepared and studied via XRD, HRTEM, XPS and electrochemical measurements. It can be observed that La3+ ions are doped into the transition metal lattice when x ≤ 1.0, whereas excess La forms a LaMnO3 phase. In addition, La doping enlarges the interlayer spacing and elevates the average Mn valence of the materials. As cathodes in SIBs, the optimal NNMO-La-1.0 achieves a capacity of 124.0 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C and 82.2% capacity retention after 500 cycles at 1 C. The results of the in-situ XRD indicate a solid-solution reaction for NNMO-La-1.0 during the charging/discharging process. This work shows a method to enhance the stability of the P2-type Na2/3Ni1/3Mn2/3O2 cathodes.
