“…For solving these issues, a wide variety of strategies have been performed for maintaining the structural integrity and improving the electrical conductivity of LiV 3 O 8 . For example, the coatings of conductive polymers, graphene oxide, or metal oxides have been proved to be an efficient strategy for improving the Li-ion storage performance of LiV 3 O 8 . − The elemental substitution for V is another effective approach accomplished by introducing Mo, Ni, or Si, which can form a mix-valence state of V 4+ /V 5+ and provide abundant oxygen vacancies in LiV 3 O 8 . − In addition, it has been demonstrated that controlling the morphology of the LiV 3 O 8 cathode material has an aggressive impact on its electrochemical performance. ,, …”
