Preventing Structural Rearrangements on Battery Cycling: A First-Principles Investigation of the Effect of Dopants on the Migration Barriers in Layered LiMnO2 
19 September 2016

The British scientists have been studied how trivalent dopants (Al3+, Cr3+, Fe3+, Ga3+, Sc3+, and In3+) affect Mn migration during the initial stage of the layered to spinel transformation in Li0.5MnO2. They have also analyzed how the dopants influence Li diffusion activation energy.
