Abstract: Various composites including (1-x-y) LiNi_0.7Co_0.3O₂, xLi₂MnO₃ and yLiCoO₂ systems were synthesised using the sol-gel method. Stoichiometric weights of the LiNO₃, Mn(Ac)₂·4H₂O, Co(Ac)₂·4H₂O, Ni(NO₃)₂·6H₂O for preparing of 28 samples have been used. We found that the sample "Li_1.167Ni_0.117Co_0.699Al_0.017Mn_0.167O₂" with Al doped is the best composition for cathode material in LIBTs. Obviously, the weight of cobalt used in this sample is lower compared to LiCoO₂ which is an advantage in view point of cost and toxicity. Charge-discharge characteristics of the mentioned cathode materials were investigated by performing cycle tests in the range of 2.4-4.6 V. Our results confirmed that this kind of system can help removing the mentioned disadvantage of cobalt with high efficiency.
