Abstract

Micron sized, three dimensional (3D) nanoporous spherical LiFePO₄/C synthesized by spray pyrolysis shows excellent cyclability and superior rate capability. The 3D conductive carbon coating and interconnected pore networks facilitate the kinetics of both electron transport and lithium ion diffusion within the particles.
