Structural analysis using X-ray diffraction and high-resolution electron microscopy indicate that LiFe 1.5O 7 synthesized at 500°C, using metal acetates, is crystallized in the monoclinic structure with lattice parameters a = 0.698 76 nm, b = 0.812 36 nm, c = 0.964 22 nm, and β=111.83° (P2 1/c space group). Electrochemical characterization of LiFe 1.5O 7 in lithium cells indicates a capacity of 95 mA·h/g obtained in the voltage range 2.5-4.2 V. The resulting incremental capacity indicates a stable structure for the first cycle with the redox peaks at 3.33 and 3.22 V versus Li 0/Li +. The capacity of LiFe 1.5P 2O 7 decreased with cycling number at the rate of 0.22% per cycle while the capacity falls off rapidly in the case of material prepared at higher temperatures.falseCrystallizationElectrochemical electrodesHigh resolution electron microscopyLattice constantsLithium batteriesSynthesis (chemical)X ray diffractionElectrochemical characterizationLithium iron pyrophosphateMonoclinic structureLithium compoundsjournal article2-s2.0-36049034914
