摘要
The cathode materials LiMn2O4 and rare earth elements La-doped or La and F dual-doped spinel lithium manganese oxides.were synthesized by the citric acid-assisted sol-gel method. The synthesized samples were investigated by differential thermal analysis （DTA） and thermogravimetry （TG） measurements, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electronic microscope （SEM）, cyclic voltammetry （CV）, and charge-discharge test. XRD data shows that all the samples exhibit the same pure spinel phase, and the LiLa0.01Mn1.99O3.99F0.01 and LiLao.olMnl.9904 samples have smaller lattice parameters and unit cell volume than LiMn2O4. SEM indicates that LiLa0.01Mn1.99O3.99F0.01 has a slightly smaller particle size and a more regular morphology structure with narrow size distribution. The charge-discharge test reveals that the initial capacities of LiMn2O4, LiLa0.01Mn1.99O4, and LiLa0.01Mn1.99O3.99F0.01 are 129.9, 122.8, and 126.4 mAh·g^-1, and the capacity losses of the initial values after 50 cycles are 14.5%, 7.6%, and 8.0%, respectively The CVs show that the La and F dual-doped spinel displays a better reversibility than LiMn2O4.
