A Nasicon-type LiTi_2-xMn_x(PO₄)₃@C (x=0.02, 0.05, 0.08 and 0.1) has been successfully synthesized by a simple sol-gel method. The precipitates were annealed at 700℃ for 10 h in Ar. The metallic ion doping could increase their lattice parameters, along with the large available tunnels for Li⁺ diffusion, and then decrease the electrochemical resistance. The carbon layer plays an important role in improving the electronic conductivity. These composites were characterized via powder X-ray diffractometry with Cu Kα line as a radiation (λ=0.154 18 nm). The morphologies were observed by a transmission electron microscopy. The molar ratio of n_Mn:n_Ti was obtained from ICP-AES analysis. Among the samples, LiTi_1.92Mn_0.08(PO₄)₃@C exhibited the best electrochemical performance as a cathode material for lithium ion batteries, with a discharge capacity of 145 mAh·g^-1 after 150 cycles at 0.1 C. It even delivered a discharge capacity of 132 mAh·g^-1 in the first cycle at 5 C. This superior electrochemical property could be ascribed to its enhanced lithium-diffusion induced by doping and improved electronic conductivity induced by carbon coating.
