Abstract

A new strategy based on the P excess reaction system is innovated to hydrothermally synthesize olivine phosphates (LiMPO4), and even unoptimized samples still show competitive electrochemical performance. Meanwhile, it is found that the presence of NH4+ in the P excess reaction system is detrimental to the efficient hydrothermal synthesis of LiMPO4.
