Abstract

A fluoride-based cathode (FeF₃·0.33H₂O) for lithium batteries, the synthesis of which has been reported recently (C. L. Li et al. Adv. Mater. 2010, 22, 3650), is described in terms of structure, morphology, and performance. A self-assembled mesoporous morphology connected with a high specific surface area is obtained through the soft template role of the ionic liquid. The fluoride exhibits a one-dimensional tunnel structure produced by continuous hexagonal cavities, in which hydration water molecules are located. The high Li-intercalation activity of carbon-free FeF ₃·0.33H₂O is expected to be associated with various factors, including electrolyte-infiltratable mesoporosity, wide Li ⁺-insertable channels, and medium conductivities. A single solid-solution reaction mechanism is indicated by potentiostatic intermittent titration technique and ex situ X-ray diffraction at different reactive potentials.
