Abstract
Solid solutions of structure type have been synthesized from homogeneous hydroxide precursors. X‐ray powder diffraction and scanning transmission electron microscopy show that single‐phase solid solutions are formed up to y ≈ 0.5 at 800°C in air. Electrochemical tests using nonaqueous liquid electrolyte cells shows that the open‐circuit voltage and working voltage increase with Al content as predicted by ab initio calculations [Ceder et al., Nature, 392, 694 (1998)], while capacity fade was significant during cycling at room temperature. However, both the absolute capacity and cycleability were improved at 55°C. © 1999 The Electrochemical Society. All rights reserved.
