Conventional Li-ion batteries work by cationic redox, when a metal ion changes its oxidation state as lithium is inserted or removed. This is the mechanism credited with the high capacity of the materials, nearly doubling the energy storage compared to conventional cathodes. Lithium-rich cathodes, however, can store much more.
