Abstract

Lithium-ion battery which widely used as portable power sources with high energy density is greatly being increased due to the development and popularity of portable electronic device and vehicle. Lithium nickel oxide (LiNiO2) and their derivatives are promising positive cathode materials for next generation of lithium-ion batteries. LiNiO2 potentially offers a higher capacity at about 200 mAh/g. However it is more difficult to synthesized stoichiometric LiNiO2 because of the loss of lithium from host structure during high temperature calcination due the high vapor pressure of lithium and capacity fade when charging up to a high voltage (> 4.0V vs Li+/Li) during deintercalation of lithium ion that affected cycling. The review is focused the electrochemical performance by substitution or effect doping of LiNiO2 and their derivative by other metals as a cathode materials for lithium ion batteries.
