Abstract
High energy density lithium-ion batteries are eagerly required to electric vehicles more competitive. In a variety of circumstances closely associated with the energy density of the battery, positive electrode material is known as a crucial one to be tackled. Among all kinds of materials for lithium-ion batteries, nickel-rich layered oxides have the merit of high specific capacity compared to LiCoO2, LiMn2O4 and LiFePO4. They have already become one of the most attractive candidates for the mainstream batteries in industries. In this work, the recent advances on three commonly concerned nickel-rich layered oxides are presented. The preparation, microstructure, electrochemical performances are focused, the modification including coating design as well as dopant selection is specially discussed in details, which is essential to enhance the durability and energy density of lithium-ion batteries. Additionally, the prospects and challenges are also systematically discussed, as well as the potential applications in the field of energy storage technologies.
