Abstract
Substantially defect-free layered lithium nickel oxide materials of Formula (I): Li(NiM)Oand Formula (II): LiNiMOare provided herein, wherein M is one or more metal selected from the group consisting of Co, Mn, Al, Mg, Ti, B, Zr, Nb, and Mo; 0≤x≤0.05; and 0≤y≤0.1, 0.97≤a≤1.03; 0.9≤b≤1; 0≤c≤0.1; and 0.97≤(b+c)≤1.03; and the material has a layered structure with no more than about 1.2 percent disorder between lithium and transition metal (TM) layers, as determined by structural refinement calculations on x-ray diffraction (XRD) data, compared to an ideal layered LiNiOstructure. The materials can be formed by heating Ni(OH)or NiO with lithium hydroxide at a temperature in the range of about 650 to 680° C.
