Synthesis and electrochemical performance of micro-nano structured LiFe1−xMnxPO4/C (0 ≤x ≤ 0.05) cathode for lithium-ion batteries

The porous micro-nano structured Mn-doped LiFePO4/C microspheres were prepared by spray drying process. For optimized Mn doping content of 3 mol%, the LiFe0.97Mn0.03PO4/C demonstrates better discharge capacity and cycling performance at rates of 0.2-1.0 C.172
