Abstract

Li<sub>3.5+x</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub> and Li4Ti5O12 layers coated LiMn<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>were prepared via sol–gel route, with subsequent annealing at 750 °C. XRD studies showed coating did not change the structure of LiMn<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>. TEM studies showed coating layers were formed around LiMn<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> particles, both corresponding spinel LiTiO phase. XPS studies showed the valence of surface Mn for the Li<sub>3.5+x</sub>Ti<sub>5</sub>O<sub>12</sub>-coated-LiMn<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> increased after annealing. This sample also demonstrated a favorable cycling performance.
