Abstract

The principal challenges for lithium/sodium-ion batteries are cost, energy density and cycle life, and the cathode material is the biggest limiting factor. To further improve the power and energy density of lithium/sodium-ion batteries, new cathode materials need to be developed. Vanadium phosphate is regarded as an excellent substitute for lithium-ion battery cathode materials due to its low price, low toxicity, structural stability and high theoretical capacity. Nevertheless, the intrinsically low electrical conductivity hampers the rate performance and cycling stability. In this chapter, we overview the structures, transport characteristics, and (de)lithiation mechanisms of a series of vanadium phosphate, included Li3V2(PO4)3, Na3V2(PO4)3, vanadium fluorophosphates, vanadium pyrophosphate, and vanadium-based mixed polyanion materials. In the same time, the future prospects and feasible research directions are discussed.
