description Lithium cobalt fluorophosphate, Li2CoPO4F, is successfully synthesized by a solid state reaction under Ar flow at 700 °C.

The electrochemical properties are evaluated by means of Li/Li2CoPO4F half-cell configurations in both potentiostatic and galvanostatic modes. The Li/Li2CoPO4F cell delivers an initial discharge capacity of 132 mA h g−1 at a current density of 0.1 mA cm−2 between 2.0 and 5.1 V at room temperature.
