In Situ Formation of Conductive Metal Sulfide Domain in Metal Oxide Matrix: An Efficient Way to Improve the Electrochemical Activity of Semiconducting Metal Oxide

Abstract: wileyonlinelibrary.comreliability of the lithium titanate render this material one of the most suitable anode materials for the EV application. However, the rate performance of lithium titanate is seriously limited by its low electronic and ionic conductivities. Such poor charge transport characteristic of Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 basically results from its wide bandgap energy related to the empty 3d states of Ti 4+ ions. [ 3f,k ] Various attempts such as cationic and anionic doping, and the hybridization and surface c… Show more

“…The significantly improved Na + storage performance might be related to the synergetic enhancement of electron and sodium‐ion transport kinetics, benefiting from the internal electric field within the nanoparticles . Furthermore, the in situ generation of SnS nanoparticles in the SnO 2 matrix can effectively immobilize the SnO 2 , thus reducing the self‐agglomeration of SnO 2 nanocrystals and maintaining good structural stability . We also compare the rate performance of the C@SnS/SnO 2 @Gr electrode in this work with the state‐of‐the‐art results in previously published papers on SnO 2 ‐, SnS‐, SnS 2 ‐ and Sn‐based systems (Table S1).…”

“…[22,25] Furthermore,t he in situ generation of SnS nanoparticles in the SnO 2 matrix can effectively immobilize the SnO 2 ,t hus reducing the selfagglomeration of SnO 2 nanocrystals and maintaining good structural stability. [33] We also compare the rate performance of the C@SnS/SnO 2 @Gr electrode in this work with the stateof-the-art results in previously published papers on SnO 2 -, SnS-, SnS 2 -a nd Sn-based systems (Table S1). Thec apacity and high-rate performance of the C@SnS/SnO 2 @Gr composite is greatly superior to those of most reported anodes for Na-ion batteries.S uch excellent performance shows that the as-prepared C@SnS/ SnO 2 @Gr composite has great potential as the anode in applications for Na-ion batteries.…”

“…These advantages of titanium oxide render them one of the most promising electrode materials for NIB. , However, the wide bandgap nature of titanium oxide with larger bandgap energy of >3.2 eV leads to the low electrical conductivity, which has a detrimental effect on the electrode performance of this material, especially under high current density . To overcome the inferior electrode performance of TiO 2 , many attempts have been made such as carbon coating, cation doping, and anion doping including sulfur doping. Taking into account the lower electronegativity of sulfur than oxygen, the (metal–sulfur) bond has less ionic nature than the (metal–oxygen) bond, leading to the smaller bandgap energy and higher electrical conductivity of metal sulfide than metal oxide. , Thus, the composite formation of metal oxide–metal sulfide would be effective in improving the electrical conductivity and electrochemical activity of metal oxide . Actually, several metal sulfides like TiS 2 show much higher electrical conductivity than corresponding metal oxide like TiO 2 , which can act as conducting path.…”
