摘要： The local crystal structures and electronic structures of LiMxFe1-xPO4 $(M$ = Co, Ni, Rh) are studied through first-principles calculations. The lattice constants and unit cell volumes are smaller for the Co and Ni doped materials than for pure LiFePO$_{4}$, while larger than for the Rh doped material. The local structures around $M$ atoms in the doped materials are studied in details. The total density of states (DOS) and atomic projected DOS (PDOS) are all calculated and analysed in detail. The results give a reasonable prediction to the improvement of electronic conductivity through Fe-site doping in LiFePO4 material.
