Abstract

Abstract: This bimonthly review paper highlights 100 recent published papers on lithium batteries. We searched the Web of Science and found 2241 papers online from Feb. 1, 2016 to Mar. 31, 2016. 89 of them were selected to be highlighted. Layered oxide and high voltage spinel cathode materials are still under extensive investigations for influences of doping, coating and interface modifications on their cycling performances. Large efforts were devoted to Si based composite anode materials for analyzing the SEI and making nano structures. There are a few papers related to electrolyte additives, solid state lithium batteries, Li/S batteries, Li-air batteries, and modeling, and more papers for the charcterzations and calculations of doping to cathode materials, SEI and solid state electrolytes and batteries.
