The sensitive surface chemistry of Co-free, Ni-rich layered oxides: identifying experimental conditions that influence characterization results

Recent studies have suggested that Co-free, Ni-rich layered cathodes ( e.g. , doped LiNiO 2 ) can provide promising battery performance for practical applications. However, these layered cathodes suffer from significant surface instability during various stages of the sample history, which generates...

description Recent studies have suggested that Co-free, Ni-rich layered cathodes ( e.g. , doped LiNiO 2 ) can provide promising battery performance for practical applications. However, these layered cathodes suffer from significant surface instability during various stages of the sample history, which generates inherent challenges for achieving stable battery performance and obtaining statistically representative characterization results. To reliably report the surface chemistry of these materials, delicate controls of stepwise sample preparation are required. In this study, we aim to illustrate how the surface chemistry of LiNiO 2 based materials changes with various environments, including human exhalation, sample storage, sample preparation, electrochemical cycling, and surface doping. Our results demonstrate that the surface of these materials is highly reactive and prone to alter at various stages of sample handling and characterization. The sensitive surface could impact the interpretation of the surface chemical and structural information, including surface carbonate formation, transition metal reduction and dissolution, and surface reconstruction. Importantly, the heterogeneity of the surface degradation calls for a consolidation of nanoscale, high-resolution characterization and ensemble-averaged methods in order to improve statistical representation. Furthermore, the doping chemistry can effectively mitigate the surface degradation and improve overall battery performance due to the enhanced surface oxygen retention. Our study highlights the necessity of strict measurements through complementary characterization at multiple length scales to eliminate unintentional biased conclusions. Co-free, Ni-rich layered cathodes suffer from surface instability during various stages of the sample history, creating challenges for obtaining statistically representative characterization results and achieving stable battery performance.
