Many efforts have been made to improve the electrochemical performance of Li-rich cathode materials such as metal ion doping, surface modification, and fabricating nanostructured materials. Here, we demonstrate Li2MnO3 (denoted as OLO) cathode materials coated with TiO2 (OLO@TiO2) for high-performance LIBs. The ratio of layered Li2MnO3 to anatase TiO2 as well as the shell thickness in the OLO@TiO2 cathodes were controlled by increasing the addition of titanium butoxide. The structure and chemical states for TiO2 coated OLO electrodes were confirmed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy, field emission transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. To evaluate the performance of the electrodes for LIBs, charge/discharge curves, cycling performance, cyclic voltammograms, and Nyquist plots of the as-prepare cathode materials were obtained using lithium coin cells. In particular, since the TiO2 coating layer in OLO@TiO2 could stabilize the interface between the cathode and electrolyte, OLO@TiO2 exhibited high specific capacity, improved high rate cycling performance, and excellent cycle life due to the low interface resistance and high diffusion coefficient of lithium ion, compared with the uncoated OLO cathode.
