One-dimensional lithium-rich Li1.17Ni0.35Mn0.48O2 cathode and carbon-coated MnO anode materials for highly reversible Li-ion configurations

One-dimensional Li-rich Li1.17Ni0.35Mn0.48O2 (0.4Li2MnO3∙0.6LiNi0.7Mn0.3O2) cathode and carbon-coated MnO anode material synthesized from the same 1D MnC2O4 precursor nanowires were fabricated for use in lithium-ion full batteries. As-fabricated full lithium-ion batteries showed enhanced Li+ storage performance, such as high discharge capacity, long-term cycle life, and excellent rate capability.
