Received Date: 27 August 2007

Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) doped with magnesium was hydrothermally synthesized from commercial LiOH, FeSO₄, H₃PO₄ and MgSO₄ with glucose as carbon precursor in aqueous solution. The samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and constant charge-discharge cycling.The results show that the synthesized powders have been in situ coated with carbon precursor produced from caramel reaction of glucose. At ambient temperature (28±2℃), the electrochemical performances of LiFePO₄ prepared exhibit the high discharge capacity of 135 mAh g^-1 at 5C and good capacity retention of 98% over 90 cycles. The excellent electrochemical performances should be correlated with the intimate contact between carbon and LiFePO₄ primary and secondary particles, resulting from the in situ formation of carbon precursor/carbon, leading to the increase in conductivity of LiFePO₄.
