context: The electrochemical performances of bare LMO and LMO-30 min in a full cell (S-C(PAN)‖LMO) configuration at 1C-rate and 25 °C were compared as shown in Fig. 4a. The full cell (S-C(PAN)‖LMO) with the LMO-30 min cathode shows better capacity retention of 77% after 1000 cycles at 1C, corresponding to only 0.023% fading rate per cycle from the first cycle to the 1000th cycle. In contrast, the bare LMO delivers a retention capacity of 45%, about 0.055% capacity fading rate per cycle under the same conditions. The performance is noteworthy, since S. Wei et al. have reported 0.027% capacity decay rate per cycle calculated from the second to 1000th cycle, even at low current density (0.4C-rate) for the Li/S-C(PAN) cell.
