Lithium- manganese-rich oxides are believed to be suitable candidate for cathode materials in the next generation of lithium-ion batteries. However, they have some disadvantages such as low initial coulombic efficiency, low rate capacity...

LiFePO4 nanoparticles, as one of the main cathode materials used in lithium ion batteries, are currently in the center of attention due to its extraordinary characteristics such as low cost, abundancy, environmentally friendly and high quality...

In this study, lithium ion (Li+) diffusion inside lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) as a cathode material is investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The effect of some important parameters such as voltage, Li+ content, and diffusion axis...
