A pulverulent cathode material contains at least one mixed oxide containing the metal components Li, at least one further metal component selected from the group consisting of Mn, Ni and Co. The pulverulent cathode material is produced by a process in which an ammonia-containing aerosol containing metal compound of the metal components is converted in a high-temperature zone of a reaction space and then the solids are removed.

A self-assembling structure using non-equilibrium driving forces leading to “living crystals” and other maniputable particles with a complex dynamics. The dynamic self-assembly assembly results from a competition between self-propulsion of particles and an attractive interaction between the particles. As a result of non-equilibrium driving forces, the crystals form, grow, collide, anneal, repair themselves and spontaneously self-destruct, thereby enabling reconfiguration and assembly to achieve a desired property.
