A hydrolysis-hydrothermal route for the synthesis of ultrathin LiAlO2-inlaid LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 as a high-performance cathode material for lithium ion batteries

Lithium residues on the surface of LiNi_0.5Co_0.2Mn_0.3O₂ have been removed as raw materials to synthesize LiAlO₂-inlaid LiNi_0.5Co_0.2Mn_0.3O₂ cathode materials in situ for lithium ion batteries.
