采用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理方法计算了锂离子电池正极材料Immm-Li2FeO2的声子谱、电子结构性质和Li扩散系数并与Li2MO2 (M = Co, Ni, Cu)材料进行对比. 计算结果显示, Immm-Li2FeO2材料具有结构稳定性, 计算结果呈铁磁性, 能带结构具有半金属的特征. Fe离子外层d电子呈低自旋态, 自旋极化P = 8.01%. 利用分波态密度分析了自旋向上和自旋向下的电子能带结构. 此外, 采用微动弹性带方法计算了各个方向上Li扩散的势垒, 结果表明Li离子比较容易先进行c轴方向的迁移, 迁移势垒为0.1 eV; 然后再沿ab轴方向迁移, 迁移势垒为0.21 eV, 而沿a轴方向迁移的势垒为0.39 eV. 这些势垒值比其他的Li2MO2 (M = Co, Ni, Cu)材料中的势垒值小, 也比其他Fe基Li离子电池正极材料中的势垒值更低, 意味着Li2FeO2中的Li离子将有更高的扩散系数, 这对Li2FeO2作为正极材料具有重要的意义.

The electronic structures and lithium diffusion in the cathode material Immm-Li2FeO2 of lithium-ion batteries are calculated by the first-principles method based on the density functional theory. The calculated results show that Immm-Li2FeO2 is ferromagnetic, and the band structure indicates a semi-metal character. The d-electrons of Fe ions are in the low spin state, with a spin polarization of 8.01%. The spin-up and spin-down band structure are also analyzed by using the l-decomposed electronic density of states. Furthermore, the energy barriers for the lithium ion diffusion in different directions are calculated by the nudged elastic band method. For comparison, the potential barriers for the Li2MO2 (M = Co, Ni, Cu) are also calculated. The results suggest that it is easier for Li ion to diffuse in the c-axis directionof Li2FeO2, with an energy barrier of only 0.1 eV. The energy barrier is 0.21 eV for Li to diffuse in the ab-axis direction, while the diffusion barrier is 0.39 eV along the a-axis direction of Li2FeO2. All these values of energy barriers are lower than those in other Fe-based cathodes mentioned, indicating that the Li diffusion coefficient in Immm-Li2FeO2 should be larger than those of other materials, which also indicates that the Li2FeO2 is of great importance as cathode material.-
