Nanostructured europium and palladium oxide substituted lithium manganese oxide [lieu(x)pdo(y)mno3] perovskite material for li ion battery cathode

Abstract

The 4th Industrial revolution which is to be mainly powered by cleaner energy technologies has necessitated the scientific community to develop new high-tech energy storage materials. Furthermore, 4IR is associated with increased use of handheld and portable devices which require energy carriers such as supercapacitors and batteries with high power densities and high capacities. Although layered materials such as highly lithiated manganese oxides have paved the way in the development of new high-tech energy storage materials for Li-ion batteries, there is still huge room for improvements in such materials to achieve even greater electrochemical performance.
