title: High-Performance Polyoxometalate-Based Cathode Materials for Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Batteries.
abstract: The polyoxovanadate cluster Li7[V15O36(CO3)] is shown to be an active cathode material in Li-ion batteries, delivering a capacity of 250 mA h g(-1) at 50 mA g(-1) and 140 mA h g(-1) at 10 A g(-1). Li-ion diffusion is rapid in this material and gives rise to an impressive maximum power density output of 25.7 kW kg(-1) (55 kW L(-1)).
