| Research Abstract |
High charge/discharge rate Li-ion batteries require short Li-ion diffusion length in electrodes, thus the nano-sized electrodes. The hydrothermal synthesis of the nano-sized electrodes such as LiCoO_2 or LiMn_2O_4 has been established in this study. Nano-sized LiCoO_2 has revealed to exhibit low charge/discharge capacity and voltage due to the surface Co(II) atom. In contrast, nano-sized LiMn_2O_4 showed higher charge/discharge capacity than the bulk one, since the surface energy compete with the lattice distortion during the redox process.
