Synthesis of Nanowire and Mesoporous Low‐Temperature LiCoO2 by a Post‐Templating Reaction

Year: 2005

Type: article

Abstract: Giving in to templation: Lithium-containing nanostructured transition metal oxides have been prepared by a templating route with preservation of the nanostructure. Both one-dimensional nanowire and three-dimensional mesoporous samples of low-temperature (LT)-LiCoO2 with highly crystalline structures (see image) have been obtained, and these perform better than “normal” LT-LiCoO2 as intercalation electrodes in lithium batteries.
