  • Publication number: 20170040603
    Abstract: An electrode structure of a lithium ion battery includes a current collector, at least one energy active layer, and at least one power active layer. The energy active layer is formed on the current collector and the power active layer is formed on the energy active layer. The energy active layer includes a first lithium-containing compound and multiple first conductive particles. The power active layer includes a second lithium-containing compound and multiple second conductive particles. The first lithium-containing compound includes lithium manganese cobalt nickel oxide (LiMnxCoyNizO2), where 0<x, y, z<1. The second lithium-containing compound includes lithium manganese oxide (LiMn2O4). A weight ratio of the first conductive particles to the energy active layer is greater than a weight ratio of the second conductive particles to the power active layer. A lithium ion diffusion coefficient of the second lithium-containing compound is greater than that of the first lithium-containing compound.

  • Publication number: 20140162118
    Abstract: An electrode structure of a lithium ion battery includes a current collector, at least one energy type active layer, and at least one power type active layer. The energy type active layer and the power type active layer are formed on the current collector. The energy type active layer includes a first lithium-containing compound and multiple first conductive particles. The power type active layer includes a second lithium-containing compound and multiple second conductive particles. The first and second lithium-containing compounds are lithium-containing complex transitional metal oxides. Compositions of the first and second lithium-containing compounds include at least one of Ni, Co and Mn. A lithium ion diffusion coefficient of the second lithium-containing compound is greater than that of the first lithium-containing compound. A specific capacity of the first lithium-containing compound is greater than that of the second lithium-containing compound.
