Abstract
Spinel cathode materials have great application prospects in lithium batteries (LIBs) due to their characteristics of abundant raw materials, simple preparation processes, and cobalt-free nature. During the electrochemical cycles, the specific capacity of the electrodes decreases significantly due to the dissolution of excess metal ions and mechanical degradation, which hinder their further application and development. Here, a bending curvature measurement system (BCMS) was designed to simultaneously measure the mechanical properties of the spinel cathodes during the electrochemical reaction. Three types of cathodes were chosen as the working cathode, and the coupled mechanical and electrochemical properties were analyzed to understand their degradation mechanism. During cycling, a hysteresis loop is observed for the curvature, modulus, plain strain, and stress, where LiMn2O4 (LMO) has the largest loop for the mechanical response while the LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4@Al2O3 (LNMO@Al) one has the smallest loop. Besides, the changing trend of LNMO@Al is the smallest in multiple cycles and it shows the more stable mechanical properties. This study shows from in situ mechanical measurements that the mechanical properties can greatly affect the electrochemical performance of the cathodes. These findings could offer new insights into the understanding of the electrochemical performance degradation in the spinel cathodes and can help develop strategies to enhance the performance of LIBs.

Abstract
With a focus on Mn based organometallic compounds with suitable physico-chemical properties to serve as precursors for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD) of Mn-containing materials, systematic synthetic approaches with ligand variation, detailed characterization, and theoretical input from density functional theory (DFT) studies are presented. A series of new homoleptic all-nitrogen and mixed oxygen/nitrogen-coordinated Mn(II) complexes bearing the acetamidinate, formamidinate, guanidinate and ß-ketoiminate ligands have been successfully synthesized for the first time. The specific choice of these ligand classes with changes in structure and coordination sphere and side chain variations result in significant structural differences whereby mononuclear and dinuclear complexes are formed. This was supported by density functional theory (DFT) studies. The compounds were thoroughly characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetic measurements, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. To evaluate their suitability as precursors for deposition of Mn-based materials, the thermal properties were investigated in detail. Mn(II) complexes possessing the most promising thermal properties, namely Bis(N,N'-ditertbutylformamidinato)manganese(II) (IV) and Bis(4-(isopropylamino)pent-3-en-2-onato)manganese(II) (ßIII) were used in reactivity studies with DFT to explore their interaction with oxidizing co-reactants such as oxygen and water which will guide future CVD and ALD process development.

Abstract
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have prospered a rechargeable world, predominantly relying on various metal oxide cathode materials for their abilities to reversibly de-/intercalate lithium-ion, while also serving as lithium sources for batteries. Despite the success of metal oxide, issues including low energy density have raised doubts about their suitability for next-generation lithium batteries. This has sparked interest in metal chlorides, a neglected cathode material family. Metal chlorides show promise with factors like energy density, diffusion coefficient, and compressibility. Unfortunately, challenges like high solubility hamper their utilization. In this review, we highlight the opportunities for metal chlorides in the post-lithium-ion era. Subsequently, we summarize their dissolution challenges. Furthermore, we discuss recent advancements, encompassing liquid-state electrolyte engineering, solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) cooperation, and LiCl-based cathodes. Finally, we provide an outlook on future research directions of metal chlorides, emphasizing electrode fabrication, electrolyte design, the application of SSEs, and the exploration of conversion reactions.

Abstract
Lithium-rich layered oxides (LRLOs) are opening unexplored frontiers for high-capacity/high-voltage positive electrodes in Li-ion batteries (LIBs) to meet the challenges of green and safe transportation as well as cheap and sustainable stationary energy storage from renewable sources. LRLOs exploit the extra lithiation provided by the Li1.2TM0.8O2 stoichiometries (TM = a blend of transition metals with a moderate cobalt content) achievable by a layered structure to disclose specific capacities beyond 200-250 mA h g-1 and working potentials in the 3.4-3.8 V range versus Li. Here, we demonstrate an innovative paradigm to extend the LRLO concept. We have balanced the substitution of cobalt in the transition-metal layer of the lattice with aluminum and lithium, pushing the composition of LRLO to unexplored stoichiometries, that is, Li1.2+x (Mn,Ni,Co,Al)0.8-x O2-δ. The fine tuning of the composition of the metal blend results in an optimized layered material, that is, Li1.28Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.02Al0.03O2-δ, with outstanding electrochemical performance in full LIBs, improved environmental benignity, and reduced manufacturing costs compared to the state-of-the-art.

Abstract
Layered lithium transition metal oxides derived from LiMO2 (M = Co, Ni, Mn, etc.) have been widely adopted as the cathodes of Li-ion batteries for portable electronics, electric vehicles, and energy storage. Oxygen loss in the layered oxides is one of the major factors leading to cycling-induced structural degradation and its associated fade in electrochemical performance. Herein, we review recent progress in understanding the phenomena of oxygen loss and the resulting structural degradation in layered oxide cathodes. We first present the major driving forces leading to the oxygen loss and then describe the associated structural degradation resulting from the oxygen loss. We follow this analysis with a discussion of the kinetic pathways that enable oxygen loss, and then we address the resulting electrochemical fade. Finally, we review the possible approaches toward mitigating oxygen loss and the associated electrochemical fade as well as detail novel analytical methods for probing the oxygen loss.

Abstract
High-nickel layered oxides, such as NMC 811, are very attractive high energy density cathode materials. However, the high nickel content creates a number of challenges, including high surface reactivity and structural instability. Through a wet chemistry method, a Li-Nb-O coated and substituted NMC 811 was obtained in a single step treatment. This Li-Nb-O treatment not only supplied a protective surface coating but also optimized the electrochemical behavior by Nb5+ incorporation into the bulk structure. As a result, the 1st capacity loss was significantly reduced (13.7 vs 25.1 mA h/g), contributing at least a 5% increase to the energy density of the full cell. In addition, both the rate (158 vs 135 mA h/g at 2C) and capacity retention (89.6 vs 81.6% after 60 cycles) performance were enhanced.

Abstract
Results of an early-stage sustainability evaluation of two development strategies for new nanoscale cathode materials for Li-ion batteries are reported: (i) a new production pathway for an existing material (LiCoO2 ) and (ii) a new nanomaterial (LiMnPO4 ). Nano-LiCoO2 was synthesized by a single-source precursor route at a low temperature with a short reaction time, which results in a smaller grain size and, thereby, a better diffusivity for Li ions. Nano-LiMnPO4 was synthesized by a wet chemical method. The sustainability potential of these materials was then investigated (at the laboratory and pilot production scales). The results show that the environmental impact of nano-LiMnPO4 is lower than that of the other examined nanomaterial by several factors regardless of the indicator used for comparison. In contrast to commercial cathode materials, this new material shows, particularly on an energy and capacity basis, results of the same order of magnitude as those of lithium manganese oxide (LiMn2 O4 ) and only slightly higher values than those for lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4 ); values that are clearly lower than those for high-temperature LiCoO2 .

Abstract
Spinel oxides with composition LiMn2-xMxO4 (M, a transition metal) are intensively studied due to their remarkable electrochemical properties. This study deals with cathode materials based on the lithium iron manganese oxide LiFe0.5Mn1.5O4 synthesized by different methods (sol-gel, in solution and hydrothermal) in order to obtain samples with various morphologies. SEM results show microspheres, composed of nanosized/submicrometer-sized subunits, microrods with a less porous surface, and finally nanoparticles that form micro-sized aggregates. The samples obtained by both solution and hydrothermal methods provided the best electrochemical behavior. In all cases, the coulombic efficiency is around 90%, and it remains constant during the tested cycles. Specific capacities remain stable between 95% and 98% of capacity retention after series of cycles in samples formed by microspheres or micro-size aggregates. These values are notably higher than those obtained for the samples with particles of heterogeneous size (49%). A LiMn1.5Fe0.5O4/Li2MnO3 composite has been prepared by the solvothermal technique in order to increase its capacity and energy density. These cells show a good cyclability at different current densities. All cells based on these LiFe0.5Mn1.5O4 cathodes recover their discharge capacity when the current density returns to C/10.
