Abstract

Orthorhombic type $LiCo_{x}Mn_{1-x}O_2$ (0 x 0.14) oxides have been synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of ($Co_{x}Mn_{1-x}$)$_3O_4$ precursors and LiOH aqueous solution at $170^{\circ}C$. As-synthesized powders showed well-ordered ${\beta}$-$NaMnO_2$ structures, and the products were single crystalline particle oxides from TEM observations. The particle size decreased with increasing the amount of Co substituent. Much more improved capacity upon 100 cyclings was clearly seen in orthorhombic $LiCo_{0.1}Mn_{0.9}O_2$, comparing to orthorhombic $LiMnO_2$.
