Abstract
Systems and methods related to manufacturing of Lithium-Ion cells and Lithium-Ion cell cathode materials composed of LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) or LMFP (Lithium Manganese Iron Phosphate) are disclosed. In one exemplary implementation, there is provided a method of using a Nitrogen-containing plasma to treat the Lithium-Ion cell's LFP or LMFP cathode materials. Moreover, the method may include treating the LFP or LMFP cathode materials before and/or after coating the cathode materials on a metal foil.
