Lithium-rich layered cathode material (LLM) can meet the requirement of power lithium-ion energy storage devices due to the great energy density. However, the de/intercalation of Li⁺ will cause the irreversible loss of lattice oxygen and trigger transition metal (TM) ions migrate to Li⁺ vacancies, resulting in capacity decay. Here we brought Ti⁴⁺ in substitution of TM ions in Li_1.2Mn_0.54Ni_0.13Co_0.13O₂, which could stabilize structure and expand the layer spacing of LLM. Moreover, optimized Ti-substitution can regulate the anions and cations of LLM, enhance the interaction with lattice oxygen, increase Ni³⁺ and Co³⁺, and improve Mn⁴⁺ coordination, improving reversibility of oxygen redox activation, maintaining the stable framework and facilitating the Li⁺ diffusion. Furthermore, we found 5% Ti-substitution sample delivered a high discharge capacity of 244.2 mAh/g at 50 mA/g, an improved cycling stability to 87.3% after 100 cycles and enhanced rate performance. Thereby Ti-substitution gives a new pathway to achieve high reversible cycle retention for LLMs.
