Effective recovery of the air-exposed Ni-rich lithium transition metal oxide cathodes with a coating-stabilized surface
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The electrochemical cycling performance of Ni-rich cathode materials is adversely affected by the exposure of the active materials to the ambient environment, especially for a harsh cycling condition. To mitigate this degradation, LixByC1-yOz (LBCO) was synthesized where B and C are with identical chemical bonding structures and a 0.5 at% LBCO sol-gel coating process is introduced. Here we provide a comprehensive characterization of the coating material and the effect of coating. We confirm the effectiveness of the coating method and optimize processing parameters from both chemical and electrochemical perspectives. The coating and following process can regenerate the deteriorated surface and recover the capacity. After extended cycling, we demonstrate that the LBCO coating stabilized the surface and protected the bulk from severe structural degradation, with multiscale electron microscopy and spectroscopy characterization techniques. Our in-depth investigation provides a promising approach to recovering the degraded surface structure and electrochemical performance by applying LBCO coatings.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
