This description is made for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention and should not be taken in a limiting sense. The scope of the invention is best determined by reference to the appended claims.
- The invention provides a method for manufacturing a positive electrode. First, a lithium alloy oxide layer is formed on a substrate. The substrate can be stainless steel, polyamide, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), mica, glass, poly(ethyleneterephthalate) (PET), poly-p-phenylene-benzobisoxazole (PBO), or epoxy resin. The lithium alloy oxide is a general positive electrode material such as LiMnO2, LiMn2O4, LiCoO2, LiCr2O7, Li2CrO4, LiNiO2, LiFeO2, LiNxCo1-xO2 LiFePO4, LiMn0.5Ni0.5O2, LiMn1/3Co1/3Ni1/3O2, LiMc0.5Mn1.5O4, or combinations thereof, wherein 0<x<1 and Mc is a divalent metal. There are three major types formation methods: (1) conventional powder pressing; (2) vapor deposition such as plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), laser plating, low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD), rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition (RTCVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD), or physical vapor deposition (PVD), magnetron sputtering, RF sputtering, or RF plasma sputtering; and (3) chemical solution deposition such as sol-gel coating, electrochemical plating, hydrothermal deposition, and the likes. As a result, a lithium alloy oxide thick layer of 2-100 μm or a lithium alloy oxide thin film of 50 nm to 2000 nm is formed on the substrate.
- In one embodiment, as the cross section of an SEM image, the lithium alloy oxide layer formed by the described process is not dense. Furthermore, the top surface of the lithium alloy oxide layer is uneven. Thus, if the top layer is directly applied as a positive electrode, capacity will be dramatically reduced after several charge/discharge cycles.
- To solve the above problem, a critical process sequentially follows forming of the lithium alloy oxide layer In the invention, the lithium alloy oxide layer is applied an additional plasma treatment. Therefore, the lithium alloy oxide layer is modified to have uniform, dense, inter-necked nano grains (3 nm to 10 nm) on a top surface, and leave originally larger grains on a bottom structure. According to the ESCA and X-ray diffraction diagram, the top surface of the modified lithium alloy oxide layer has similar chemical composition and crystalline type when compared to the lithium alloy oxide layer before the plasma treatment. Thus, the plasma treatment only changes the grain size of the top surface thereof, and the lithium alloy oxide layer is not induced to conduct undesired reactions such as oxidation or reduction. The RAMAN spectrum shows that the nano crystal structure is formed on the top surface. The plasma treatment can be an RF plasma or microwave plasma treatment, and the plasma power depends on the lithium alloy oxide layer area, and the plasma power density is 0.8 W/cm2 to 5 W/cm2. If the power density is lower than 0.8 W/cm2, insufficient power for treatment efficiency occurs. If the power density is higher than 4 W/cm2, the high energy and high density plasma will destroy the surface or coarsen the grain size. The plasma treatment is preferably processed under inert gas such as argon to prevent undesired reactions. If the positive electrode contains a high oxidation state metal, such as cobalt or manganese of +3 to +4 value, the plasma treatment can be processed under oxygen. The plasma chamber may include an anode shield, inductively coupled coil, and a closed magnetic field to reach high densities with low energy, such that the plasma concentration thereof is 1011 to 1013 cm−3 and the electron temperature thereof is 1 to 2 eV. If the plasma concentration or electron temperature thereof is too low, treatment inefficiency occurs. If the plasma concentration or electron temperature thereof is too high, the surface of the lithium alloy oxide layer may be destroyed or phase of the positive electrode may be dramatically changed, due to the high energy and high density plasma. The plasma treatment is processed for 5 to 60 minutes, wherein uniform treatment can not be accomplished in a shorter period and for a longer period, the internal portion of the positive electrode would be damaged. The plasma treatment is a low temperature process, and the positive electrode temperature is controlled to be under 150° C. A high treatment temperature (>150° C.) will destroy the flexible substrate without high-temperature resistance.
- Note that although some skilled in the art form a lithium alloy oxide layer by plasma device equipment, the plasma is applied to assist deposition or sputtering. The plasma is stopped at the end of the deposition or sputtering process, and the lithium alloy oxide layer formed with the plasma has an uneven top surface. If some skilled in the art uses an additional plasma treatment to modify the lithium alloy oxide layer, it would still lack the plasma source design and the plasma factors of the invention. Therefore, the lithium alloy oxide layer is different from the conventional plasma treatment, wherein cell performance is not enhanced due to the grains of the positive electrode being coarsened, phase changed, and destroyed.
- In one embodiment, the substrate is a rigid material such as a stainless material. The rigid substrate can be annealed at a high temperature, such as 300° C. to 700° C., before or after the plasma treatment. If the anneal temperature is less than 300° C., the substrate has poor crystalline phase and lower capacity. If the anneal temperature is higher than 700° C., the substrate will have a high temperature mixed phase.
- The lithium alloy oxide layer modified by the invention can be used as positive electrode in, but not limited to a lithium battery as shown in

- The plasma source for plasma treatment in the invention is designed as shown in
FIG. 2 . Thetop electrode 7 is a single electrode plate, an electrical inductively coil, or a microwave generator. Ananode shield 8 is disposed between the top and bottom electrode plates. Theanode shield 8 is coupled to the ground by an adjustable capacitor. The plasma source is covered by a closedmagnetic field 9, and the material for afterward treatment is set on thebottom electrode 10. - Because the positive electrode of the invention has high capacity and long cycle lifetime, a lithium battery utilizing the same will have better performance.
- The preparation of the positive electrode
- A 500 nm thick LiMn2O4 layer was magnetron sputtered on a stainless substrate, and then annealed at 600° C. The described LiMn2O4 surface layer was cut by a focused ion beam to be analyzed, wherein the electron diffraction spectrum thereof is shown in
FIG. 3 a, the ESCA spectrum thereof is shown inFIG. 4 , the RAMAN spectrum thereof is shown inFIG. 5 , and the SEM image of the top surface thereof is shown inFIG. 6 . As shown inFIG. 6 , the surface of the LiMn2O4 without an additional plasma treatment is uneven, and the grain thereof is rough and large. - A 500 nm thick LiMn2O4 layer was magnetron sputtered on a stainless substrate, then annealed at 600° C., and treated by an Rf plasma. The power for the Rf plasma was 30 W, the treatment atmosphere was argon, the treatment temperature was lower than 100° C., and the treatment period was 30 minutes. The LiMn2O4 layer after the plasma treatment had an ESCA spectrum as shown in
FIG. 4 and a RAMAN spectrum as shown inFIG. 5 . - Example 2 is similar to Example 1, except that the power for plasma treatment was enhanced to 50W in Example 2. The described LiMn2O4 surface layer after the plasma treatment was cut by a focused ion beam to be analyzed, wherein the electron diffraction spectrum thereof is shown in
FIG. 3 b, the ESCA spectrum thereof is shown inFIG. 4 , the RAMAN spectrum thereof is shown inFIG. 5 , and the SEM image of the top surface thereof is shown inFIG. 7 a. As shown inFIG. 7 a, the surface of the LiMn2O4 after the additional plasma treatment is even, dense, and planar. Because the ultra-fine and inter-necked nano grains were formed on a top surface, it is difficult to efficiently analyze the grains by a SEM.FIG. 7 b shows a light field image of a similar surface portion inFIG. 3 b, and it shows the inter-necked structure of the nano grains. - Example 3 is similar to Example 1, except that the power for plasma treatment was enhanced to 80 W in Example 3. The LiMn2O4 layer after the plasma treatment had an ESCA spectrum as shown in
FIG. 4 and a RAMAN spectrum as shown inFIG. 5 . - When comparing the electron diffraction spectrum in
FIG. 3 and the ESCA spectrum inFIG. 4 , it is shown that the chemical composition of the surface molecules in the Comparative Example 1 and Examples 1-3 are similar. Thus, the plasma treatment will not change the molecule composition. However, the RAMAN spectrum inFIG. 5 shows the peak value between 630 to 660 cm−1 shifts to a low wave number after the high density and low energy plasma treatment. As shown in the TEM and SEM images inFIGS. 6 , 7 a, and 7 b, the plasma treatment efficiently improves the even and dense degree of the lithium alloy oxide layer surface. Furthermore, nano grains are induced on the top surface by the plasma treatment. - Electrical Properties (Battery Capacity and Cycle Lifetime)

FIG. 9 , the first charge/discharge curve (the most right curve) had a capacity of 400 mAh/g. Following increase of the charge/discharge cycles, the curves shifted to the left side. At the 20th charge/discharge, the capacity thereof was only 200 mAh/g. - The electrode of Example 2 was charged in a 1M LiPF6 electrolyte in EC/EMC. The electrode was charged/discharged by a forward and a reverse current (0.3 mA/mg) and a voltage (2.0 to 4.5 V vs. Li/Li+) at room temperature (25° C.) to measure its capacity (mAh/g). As shown in
FIG. 10 , the first to twentieth charge/discharge curves were nearly overlapping and remained at 140 mAh/g. - The electrode of Example 2 was charged in 1M LiPF6 electrolyte in EC/EMC. The electrode was charged/discharged by a forward and a reverse current (0.3 mA/mg) and a voltage (1.5 to 4.5 V vs. Li/Li+) at a high temperature (55° C.) to measure its capacity (mAh/g). As shown in
FIG. 11 , the second charge/discharge curve (the most right curve) had a capacity of 500 mAh/g higher than the first charge/discharge curve (having a capacity of 410 mAh/g). Following increase of the charge/discharge cycles, the curves shifted to left side. At the 20th charge/discharge, the capacity thereof remained at 370 mAh/g. - As shown when comparing
FIGS. 8-11 , the lithium alloy oxide layer after surface treatment by plasma, had a longer cycle lifetime and higher capacity than the lithium alloy oxide layer before surface treatment by plasma, when the charge/discharge was processed both at room or high temperatures. - While the invention has been described by way of example and in terms of the preferred embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. To the contrary, it is intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements (as would be apparent to those skilled in the art).
