As a cathode material for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs), manganese-based layered oxides have attracted widespread attention due to their low cost, ease of synthesis, and high performance. However, the Jahn-Teller effect caused by Mn3+ and the irreversible phase transformation of the structure leads to poor cycle stability, limiting the development of layered oxides in PIBs. Herein, we demonstrate the use of phase-transition-free CaTiO_(3) as rivets in K_(0.5)Mn_(0.9)Ti_(0.1)O_(2) by a simple solid-state method. As verified by the in situ X-ray diffraction, the CaTiO_(3) rivets effectively prevent the slippage of the transition metal layer during charge and discharge, inhibiting structural degradation. As a result, the obtained K_(0.5)Mn_(0.9)Ti_(0.1)O_(2)-0.02CaTiO_(3) shows excellent cycling stability and rate performance, with high capacities of 119.3 and 70.1 mAh·g^(-1) at 20 and 1000 mA·g^(-1), respectively. At 200 mA·g^(-1), the capacity retention remains 94.7% after more than 300 cycles. This work represents a new avenue for designing and optimizing layered cathode materials for PIBs and other batteries.
