• Summary:Li-rich layered oxides have been regarded as valuable cathode materials for high energy density lithium-ion
  batteries. However, high initial irreversible capacity, bad rate capability, as well as serious capacity fading
  and voltage decay hinder their commercial application. In this paper, a nano CoF2 protective layer is coated
  on the surface of Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2 via a facial wet chemistry method. A high initial discharge capacity of
  264.4 mAh g1 is obtained for 0.5% CoF2-coated sample and 259.1 mAh g1 for 1% CoF2-coated sample
  owing to the suppression of irreversible release of O2 and the contribution of electrochemical conversion of
  CoF2/LiF. Furthermore, 1% CoF2-coated sample exhibits the excellent rate capability of 167.5 mAh g1 at 5 C
  rate, the superior cycling stability with the capacity retention of 241.0 mAh g1 and the ameliorative voltage
  drop of 0.312 V at 0.1C after 100 cycles. The enhanced rate performance as well as stability of capacity and
  voltage can be attributed to the nano coatings which inhibit the electrolyte-electrode side reaction,
  enhance the electrochemical kinetics and mitigate structure transition from layered to spinel phase.
