Mn vacancies in Mn3O4: steering lithiation kinetics during solid-state synthesis toward ultrastable spinel cathode materials

The lithiation process during solid-state synthesis governs lattice formation, defect evolution and, ultimately, the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion battery cathodes. However, how the competition between lithiation and oxidation during precursor conversion dictates the formation of the final crystal lattice...
