Description
Summary:Research and developments on preparing electrode material for lithium-ion batteries are burgeoning nowadays widely. In this study, we used the high energy ball-milling method to prepare pure and samarium-doped lithium manganese oxide (Li4Mn5O12) and investigated its structural, morphological, and electrical properties. The XRD spectrum for the produced materials confirmed the phase purity and crystallinity of the material. The fourier transform infrared spectrum was used to determine the different sorts of vibrations between molecules. The particle size with the presence of polyhedral-shaped morphology was certified by using SEM and TEM analysis. EDS mapping was used to assess the elemental composition and purity of the samples. Complex impedance spectroscopy analysis was used to investigate the temperature dependency of the materials’ electrical properties, and high conductivity (1.15 × 10−7 S cm−1) was reported for samarium-doped lithium manganese oxide at 100°C, and its dielectric relaxation behavior was examined.
