Li-rich layered oxide cathodes suffer from poor rate capability, voltage decay and inferior cycling stability. Herein, we propose a novel synergistic strategy to improve the electrochemical performances of Li-rich Li1.20Ni0.13Co0.13Mn0.54O2 by the co-doping of Na+ and PO43-. The co-doping of Na+ for Li and PO43- for Mn is simultaneously achieved using Na3PO4 as a dopant. The co-doping of Na+ and PO43- not only enhances the high-rate performance (106.4 mAhg(-1)@10C) and capacity retention (93.8%@1C@100 cycles) but also mitigates the voltage decay owing to the synergistic effect of Na+ and PO43- co-doping. The synergistic mechanism is unraveled based on neutron diffraction, aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ex-situ X-ray absorption spectra, ex-situ X-ray diffraction, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements. The co-doping of Na+ and PO43- enlarges the interlayer spacing and suppresses Li/Ni mixing which increases Li+ diffusivity and enhances the rate capability. Meanwhile, the co-doping of Na+ and PO43- shrinks the thickness of the slabs, weakens the TM-O covalency and alleviates the volume change in the charge/discharge process which improves the layered structure stability and the cycling performances. This study presents some new insights into designing high performance cathode materials through a cooperative modulation of different crystal sites doping.
