Diethylzinc-Assisted Atomic Surface Reduction to Stabilize Li and Mn-Rich NCM.

Li and Mn-rich nickel cobalt manganese oxide (LMR-NCM) is one of the most promising cathode materials for realizing next-generation Li-ion batteries due to its high specific capacity of >250 mA h g and operating potential > 4.5 V. Nevertheless, being plagued by severe capacity fading and voltage decay, the commercialization of LMR-NCM appears to be a distant goal.
