In order to enhance the electrochemical properties of nickel-rich LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 cathode material, lithium-ion conductor shell was coated on the surface of the material through a facile wet chemical route. The morphologies, structures and chemical compositions of the samples were characterized by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectrometer and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The result shows that the particle surface was uniformly coated by a very thin LaPO4 layer. Electrochemical measurements proved that the LaPO4 co...
