We report the synthesis and optimization of metal (Mn, Fe and Al) doped NASICON type Li3V2(PO4)3 by solid-state reaction method. Among the metal doping, 0.02 mol concentration of Al is found better performing electrode while approaching the removal of three moles of lithium between 3-4.8 V vs. Li. A...
