Material synthesis The cathodes designated as Li1.2Ti0.4Mn0.4O2.0 (LTMO) and Li1.2Ti0.2Mn0.6O1.8F0.2 (LTMOF) were prepared through a conventional solid-state reaction process. Starting materials such as Li2CO3 (sourced from Alfa Aesar with an ACS purity of at least 99%), Mn2O3 (with a purity of 99.9% from Alfa Aesar), TiO2 (99.9% pure, Alfa Aesar), and LiF (Alfa Aesar, with a purity of 99.99%)…

Experimental methods LSTZ0.75 ceramics synthesis LSTZ0.75 were synthesized via conventional solid state reaction method. Stoichiometric amounts of Li2CO3 (99.99%, Sigma-Aldrich), SrCO3 (99.9%, ALB Materials Inc.), ZrO2 (99.9%, MSE Supplies), and Ta2O5 (99.9%, ALB Materials Inc.) were ground and mixed with ethanol for 18 h by high energy vertical planetary ball mill (MSE Supplies) with yttria…
