Abstract

A composite positive active material represented by Formula 1, LiaNibCOcMndMeO2  Formula 1 wherein, in Formula 1, M is zirconium (Zr), aluminum (Al), rhenium (Re), vanadium (V), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), gallium (Ga), silicon (Si), boron (B), ruthenium (Ru), titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb), molybdenum (Mo), magnesium (Mg), or platinum (Pt), 1.1≤a≤1.3, b+c+d+e≤1, 0≤b≤0.3, 0≤c≤0.3, 0<d≤0.6, and 0≤e≤0.1, wherein, through atomic interdiffusion of lithium and the metal, the composite positive active material has a uniform distribution of lithium excess regions and a uniform degree of disorder of metal cations, and the metal cations have a disordered, irregular arrangement at an atomic scale. Also a method of preparing the composite positive active material, a positive electrode including the composite positive active material, and a lithium battery including the positive electrode.
