中文摘要	Li2MnO3 component plays a key role in Li-rich Mn-based layered materials (mLi(2)MnO(3)center dot nLiMO(2), M = Mn, Ni, Co, etc.) for achieving unusually high lithium storage capacity. However, detailed lithium storage mechanism in Li2MnO3, such as structure evolution and charge compensation are still not very clear. In this work, the redox mechanism, the delithiation process, the kinetics of lithium diffusion, and the oxygen stability of Li2MnO3 are investigated through 'density functional calculations. The ground-state Li/vacancy configurations of Li2-xMnO3(0 <= x <= 1) at five Li concentrations are determined, from which the delithiation potential is calculated as similar to 4.6 V vs Le(+)/Li, and the charge compensation during Li removal is contributed mainly by oxygen. According to the Li/vacancy configuration in each ground state, the sequence of lithium removal is suggested from an energetic view. Both the Li+ in the lithium layer and in the transition-metal layer can be extracted. The first-principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) simulations indicate that the lithium layer, is the main diffusion plane in this material, while the Le. in the transition-metal LiMn2 layer can migrate into the lithium layer first, and then diffuse through the lithium plane or move back to the LiMn2 layer. The energy barriers of such migrations are in the range of 0.51-0.84 eV, according to the calculations with the nudged elastic band method. The release of O-2 gas from Li2-xMnO3(0 <= x <= 1) happens spontaneously if x >= 0.5, from the point of view of enthalpy change. Further understanding on the evolution Of oxygen in Li2-xMnO3 with x >= 0.5 is needed to find a way to stabilize the structure during electrochemical cycles.
