Abstract = {{A combination of high resolution x-ray absorption and x-ray emission
   spectroscopy is used to investigate electronic properties of LiCoO2
   nanoparticles with various sizes down to 8 nm. We find that the
   nanostructuring has direct influence on the electronic structure of the
   title system, similar to the effect of delithiation. In particular, an
   abrupt reduction (increase) of the intersite (intrasite) 4p-3d
   hybridization is observed for nanoparticles with size smaller than 15
   nm. Since the electrochemical properties are known to degrade in
   nanoparticles below the critical size of 15 nm, the results indicate a
   direct relationship between the intersite-intrasite correlations and the
   cathode efficiency, limiting the use of LiCoO2 nanoparticles. (C) 2013
