Li-rich layered cathode Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2is prepared via a co-precipitation followed with high-temperature calcination, and then successfully modified with nano-Li3PO4by ball milling and annealing. The TEM and EDS reveal that Li3PO4is homogeneously coated on the particle surface of Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2. And the electrochemical performance of Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2is significantly improved by coating with lithium ion conductor Li3PO4. The Li3PO4-coated sample delivers a high initial discharge capacity of 284.7 mAhg−1at 0.05 C, and retains 192.6 mAhg−1after 100 cycles at 0.5 C, which is higher than that of the pristine sample (244 mAhg−1at 0.05 C and 168.2 mAhg−1after 100 cycles at 0.5 C). The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) demonstrates that the resistance for Li/Li3PO4-coated Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2cell was reduced compared to Li/Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2, which indicates the Li3PO4coating layer with high ionic conductivity (6.6 × 10−8S cm−1) facilitates the diffusion of lithium ions through the interface between electrode and electrolyte and accelerates the charge transfer process. What is more, the Li3PO4coating layer can also act as a protection layer to protect the cathode material from encroachment of electrolyte. The two aspects account for the enhanced electrochemical performance of Li3PO4-coated Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2.
