Coordination competition-driven synthesis of triple-shell hollow α-Fe2O3 microspheres for lithium ion batteries

Core‐Shell Architectured Sulfur Coated α‐Fe2O3 Nano‐Sheet Anode for Li‐Ion Battery with Insitu Active Solid Electrolyte Interfacial Layer and Li‐Sulfur Energy Storage Systems

“…To tackle these challenges and to achieve higher energy density LIBs, researchers are making various strategies including (i) structural engineering, (ii) composite engineering, or surface modifications. [28] In order to enhance the redox kinetics of an electrode through structural aspects, the electrode materials are tailormade into nanoparticles with various shapes, such as nanosheets, [29] nano-spheres, [30] nano-disks, [31] and nano-needles. [32] Among these particular nanostructures, the nanosheet dimensions have attracted considerable attention due to their low mass density, excellent strain accommodation, and rapid electron and ion transport in various electrodes.…”

Construction of crystalline cadmium complex based on 1,4,5,8‐naphthalene diimide derivative and photocatalytic degradation about organic dyes

“…So far, researchers have developed many types of catalysts to resolve this problem, such as metal oxide (TiO 2 , Fe 2 O 3 , and WO 3 ), bismuth‐related nanomaterials, polymetallic chalcodides, and G‐C 3 N 4 . [ 1–8 ] Among them, complexes as a catalyst have more advantages in degrading organic dyes under visible light or ultraviolet (UV) light. [ 9,10 ] First, complexes have overcome the shortcomings of most metal nanoparticles, such as low utilization efficiency under visible light, low adsorption capacity of organic pollutants, and difficult recovery due to aggregation.…”

Design and synthesis of yolk–shell Fe2O3/N-doped carbon nanospindles with rich oxygen vacancies for robust lithium storage

“…For example, Gu 15 et al reported hierarchical nanotubes of α-Fe 2 O 3 as a high performance anode for LIBs, exhibiting a stable capacity of 764.2 mA h g −1 after 500 cycles at 0.5 A g −1 . Zhang 16 et al proposed triple-shell hollow α-Fe 2 O 3 microspheres as anodes for LIBs, which retained a stable capacity of 903.6 mA h g −1 after 1000 cycles at a current density of 0.5 A g −1 . Although these strategies could help to facilitate ion transport and release the volume expansion for a partly improved electrochemical performance for LIBs, their lithium storage still suffers from the drawback of poor conductivity.…”
