ANIONIC REDOX ACTIVE LITHIUM IRON OXIDE BASED CATHODE MATERIALS FOR RECHARGEABLE LITHIUM ION BATTERIES

摘要

Cathode materials for lithium ion batteries, lithium ion batteries incorporating the cathode materials, and methods of operating the lithium ion batteries are provided. The materials, which are composed of lithium iron oxides, are able to undergo reversible anionic and cationic redox reactions with no O_2(g) generation.
