By using density functional theory plane-wave pseudo-potential technique (DFT-PW-PS), the electronic structures of LiFeSO₄F and LiTi_0.25Fe_0.75SO₄F cathode materials were calculated. The computational results indicated that after lithium was intercalated into the materials, the atomic populations of S, O and F atoms are changed slightly, and that the electrons are mainly filled on the 3d orbits of the transition metals, leading to the reduction of the transition metals and making the transition metals being as redox centers. In the intercalation states, ionic bonds were formed between lithium and oxygen (fluorine), while covalent bonds were formed between the transition metals (Ti and Fe) and oxygen (fluorine), and the covalency of the S-O bonds is the strongest. The results from the density of states (DOSs) suggested that both titanium and iron take a high spin arrangement; the band gaps for the two spin channels of LiFeSO₄F are 2.88 and 2.29 eV, implying a rather poor electric conductivity; Ti doing will result in the disappearance of the band gap, enhancing significantly the electric conductivity of the cathode materials; As Ti-O and Ti-F bonds in LiTi_0.25Fe_0.75SO₄F system are stronger than Fe-O and Fe-F bonds in pure phase, Ti doping cathode materials would have a much better structural stability.
