Temperature-Dependent Dynamic Properties of LixMn2O4 in Monte Carlo Simulations
-
Abstract
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are used to simulate the voltage profile and the ionic conductivity s of Li ions in LixMn2O4 and its dependence on the lithium concentration x. The open circuit potential shows clearly the two plateaus in the charge/discharge curve, which agrees well with the experimental results. The two plateaus become more and more steep when the temperature is increased. The simulated ionic conductivity shows an M-shaped curve in the plot of ionic conductivity σ versus x when the simulation temperature is low. Interestingly, the minimum valley, which lies at the middle single-phase area near x = 0.5, disappears gradually when the temperature increases to 453K.
