Abstract
We have investigated initial stage of the delithiation of Li1.2-<I>x</I>Mn0.4Fe0.4O2 nanoparticles by means of transmission electron microscopy and electron energy-loss spectroscopy. It was found that depletion areas with diameters of less than 10 nm are preferentially formed at Fe-rich regions on the particle surfaces. Correlations between redox reactions of transition metal ions and formation of the depletion areas are discussed.
