• Global market for Li-ion batteries

increases 22%/year.

• 35% of all lithium are already used by

Li-ion industry.

• Li resources are geographically

localized: rapid variations in price with

demand.

"An Increasingly Precious Metal." The Economist. The Economist Newspaper, 14 Jan. 2016.

ü Li-ion battery technology cannot meet the increasing demands on large scale energy storage systems, including electric vehicles and grids.

ü Transition metal component

èHigh redox activity

ü 2-dimensional K migration pathways

èGood rate capability

ü Rigid oxide framework

è Good cycle stability

Xiang et al. J. Electrochem. Soc. 2015, 162, A1662

Layered transition metal oxides (KxTMO2, TM= Transition Metal) can be

promising cathode candidates for K-ion batteries.

ü P2-type K0.6CoO2 was synthesized by a conventional solid-state method.

ü The smaller K content (compared to Na) likely results from the largerionic size of K.

ü Upon charge, (008) peak moves to lower angle, indicating the increase ofCoO2 slab distance.

ü (008) peak moves back to the original position, indicating reversiblereactions.

ü Less screening of electrostatics between K ions by oxygen results in

much larger effective interaction, forming remarkable amount of phase

transitions.
