The Aluminum-Doped Lithium Manganese Oxide Target (AlLiMn₂O₄) enhances the performance of standard LiMn₂O₄ by incorporating Al³⁺ ions into the spinel lattice. This substitution mitigates Jahn-Teller distortions typically caused by Mn³⁺, thereby improving the material’s structural integrity during charge-discharge cycles. The addition of aluminum not only stabilizes the crystal structure but also increases resistance to phase transitions and capacity degradation, making it highly suitable for thin-film lithium-ion battery applications.
Key features include:
These attributes make AlLiMn₂O₄ an excellent choice for next-generation energy storage systems, providing both durability and high performance.
Our Aluminum-Doped Lithium Manganese Oxide Targets are meticulously packaged to ensure their protection during transit and storage. Depending on the dimensions, smaller targets are securely placed in polypropylene (PP) boxes, while larger targets are shipped in custom-designed wooden crates. We prioritize customized packaging solutions and utilize appropriate cushioning materials to provide optimal protection throughout transportation.

Aluminum is a lightweight, silvery-white metal with the atomic number 13, renowned for being the most abundant metal in the Earth’s crust. It boasts excellent corrosion resistance, high thermal and electrical conductivity, and remarkable malleability. Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer on its surface, preventing further oxidation and enhancing durability. With a low density of approximately 2.7 g/cm³, aluminum is ideal for applications where weight is a critical factor, such as in aerospace, transportation, and packaging industries. Additionally, aluminum is widely used as an alloying element to improve the properties of other metals and materials.
Lithium is a soft, silvery-white alkali metal with atomic number 3, celebrated for its high electrochemical potential. It is a vital component in rechargeable batteries, including lithium-ion and solid-state variants. Beyond batteries, lithium is utilized in advanced ceramics, glass production, and lightweight metal alloys, contributing to a range of high-performance applications.
Manganese is a hard, brittle gray-white metal with atomic number 25, commonly used to enhance the strength, toughness, and wear resistance of steel and other alloys. It plays a crucial role in lithium-ion battery cathode materials due to its favorable redox properties and cost-effectiveness.
