Influence of LiFePO4/C interface on electrochemical properties

Abstract

LiFePO4/C particles with different LiFePO4–C interface were prepared and investigated with emphasis on the interface property which has been found to be important for the power performance of LiFePO4. Soft-X-ray-absorption (XAS) spectra collected at O and C K-edge show a distinct bonding character between carbon and LiFePO4 in carbon coated LiFePO4/C. Galvanostatic change-discharge at different rates and electrochemical impedance tests demonstrate that the interface action between LiFePO4 and carbon within LiFePO4/C composites has a crucial effect on its electrochemical performance.
