A hierarchical micro/nanostructured Li-rich layered 0.5Li2MnO3·0.5LiMn0.4Ni0.3Co0.3O2 (H-LMNCO) material is prepared for the first time through the development of a solvothermal method, and served as cathode of lithium ion batteries. Electrochemical tests indicate that the H-LMNCO exhibits both a high reversible capacity and an excellent rate capability. The reversible discharge capacity of the H-LMNCO has been measured as high as 300.1 mAh·g− 1 at 0.2 C rate. When the rate is increased to 10 C, the discharge capacity could still maintain a high value of 163.3 mAh·g− 1. The results demonstrate that the developed solvothermal route is a novel synthesis strategy of preparing high rate performance Li-rich layered cathode material for lithium ion batteries.
