Outline of Final Research Achievements

Layered transition-metal oxides and phosphates have been extensively studied as positive electrode materials for Li- and Na-ion batteries. The materials generally consist of MeO6 (Me: transition metals) octahedra in the structure. In order to find new high-performance materials for batteries, alkali-metal containing transition-metal oxides with a MeO4 tetrahedra and the related frameworks are synthesized, and their electrochemical properties are examined. Beta-NaFeO2 shows electrochemically inactive in the Na electrochemical cell. Na4Mn2O5, however, delivers reversible capacities in the Na cell. Furthermore, KCoO2 which has a MeO5 pyramid framework, was evaluated in Li, Na, K cells and amorphization during charge. These results reveal that the materials show obvious difference in voltage curves depending on the polyhedral framework structures as well as transition metals.
