Abstract

We prepared polycrystalline samples of the AxBO2 type layered oxides Na0.77MnO2 and LiCoO2, and measured thermal conductivity from 15 to 280 K. Na0.77MnO2 shows a low thermal conductivity of 15 mW/cmK, while LiCoO2 shows a much higher value of 40 mW/cmK at 280 K. By comparing them with the data of NaCo2O4, we have found that the low thermal conductivity of AxBO2 comes essentially from the A-ion deficiency, not from the layered structure itself.
