Abstract
LiMn2O4 is a promising candidate for a cathode material in lithium-ion batteries because of its ability to intercalate lithium ions reversibly through its three-dimensional manganese oxide network....

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are used for power storage in portable electronic devices, electric cars, and many other cutting-edge applications
The samples were prepared by Atomic layer deposition (ALD) in two steps
First an MnO2 film was deposited with Mn(thd)[3] and O3 as precursors, and second, after characterization of the MnO2 film, lithium was intercalated by pulsing LiOtBu and H2O alternately so that the composition of the sample changed from MnO2 to LiMn2O4
Summary
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are used for power storage in portable electronic devices, electric cars, and many other cutting-edge applications. The depth profiles (Figure 2) reveal that lithium is distributed only in the top part of the film in the samples 10cLi−MnO2, 50cLi− MnO2, and 100cLi−MnO2, that is, when the average composition of the material is LixMn2O4, x ≤ 0.5.
