Abstract

Using a combination of time-resolved X-ray diffraction (XRD), in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and first principles calculations, we explore the structural origin of the overcharge induced thermal instability of two cathode materials, LiNi(0.8)Co(0.15)Al(0.05)O(2) and LiNi(1/3)Co(1/3)Mn(1/3)O(2), which exhibit significant difference in thermal stabilities. Detailed TEM analysis reveals, for the first time, a complex core shell-surface structure of the particles in both materials that was not previously detected by XRD. Structural comparison indicates that the overcharged Li(x)Ni(0.8)Co(0.15)Al(0.05)O(2) (x
