Lithium titanate (Li_4Ti_5O_<12>) crystal layers, useful as anode material for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries, were successfully grown on surfaces of lithium-ion conducting glass via an atmospheric pressure plasma-assisted flux coating (APP-FC) method. First, TiO_x layers have been fabricated on a lithium-ion conducting glass substrate by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition using a titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) and oxygen. Then, TiO_x layers were converted to Li_4Ti_5O_<12> crystal layers by APP-FC method. In addition, the form and thickness of the crystal layers depended on the growth conditions such as the starting composition and an atmospheric pressure N_2 plasma irradiation time.
