The new cells have fundamental material changes in the cathode to a 3-dimensional insertion structure. Two 3-D structures have been researched extensively: Manganese Spinel (LiMn2O4) and Iron Phosphate Olivine (LiFePO4). In addition, the problem can be addressed physically by decreasing the particle size of the materials to as small as nano-scale. These materials offer great ionic conductivity and low resistance with a trade-off in capacity. The manganese material has been most notably commercialized by E-One Moli Energy and a nano-scale phosphate has been commercialized by A123 Systems.
