Layered solid solution materials Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2were synthesized with one sample heat treated and three other coated with ZnAl2O4with varying amounts (0.5, 1 and 2.5 wt%) at high temperature. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The effect of ZnAl2O4coatings on the electrochemical performance of the pristine material was evaluated from charge/discharge cycles, rate performance, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results from TEM and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) indicate that the ZnAl2O4coating assumes a spinel structure on the Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2. The discharge capacities and coulombic efficiencies of the Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2materials in the first cycle are improved with the addition of ZnAl2O4. Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2coated with 1 wt% ZnAl2O4shows the highest discharge capacity (254.3 mAhg−1), highest capacity retention (98.6% for 50 cycles), and best rate capability (84 mAhg−1at 10 C). EIS indicates that the resistance of Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2electrodes decrease with the addition of ZnAl2O4consistent with the excellent rate capability.
