Intercalation into Mg spinels such as MgMn 2 O 4 is more encouraging (if suitable electrolytes are developed) and has been directly observed with a variety of characterization tools []. Furthermore, first-principles calculations suggest that both Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ spinels may achieve high energy densities (up to 1000 Wh/kg) and reasonable activation energies for diffusion.

It is found that the duration of voltage plateau depends on the rate of Li stripping, while the stripping rate is restricted by the capability of Li+ intercalation into graphite. Parameters like intercalation kinetics, solid-state diffusivity of graphite and cell temperature can substantially influence the voltage curves even with the same amount of Li plating.
