Liquid source misted chemical deposition was used to fabricate LiMn2O4 film as a cathode for lithium rechargeable microbatteries. The effect of crystallization temperature on the film properties was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy (RS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and charge/discharge experiments. When the heat treatment for crystallization of the as-deposited film was carried out at 800degreesC in a rapid thermal apparatus (RTA) in an oxygen atmosphere for 5 min, the structural and compositional purity, and the electrochemical activity of the deposited film, were optimized. The LiMn2O4 films prepared by this method exhibited much better electrochemical rechargeability than those deposited by other techniques, such as sputtering, laser ablation, sol-gel coating, etc. The prepared film exhibits an initial discharge capacity of 62.5 muA h cm(-2) mum(-1) and a low capacity fade of 8.0 % over 100 cycles.
