Synthesis of carbon coated nanocrystalline porous α-LiFeO2 composite and its application as anode for the lithium ion battery

Nanoparticle Li2FeSiO4 as anode material for lithium-ion batteries

“…The subsequent CV curves are very similar to the second one, indicating the electrochemical reversibility of the electrodes is gradually built after the initial cycle and become much better [23]. These voltage values are bearing good resemblance to LiFeO 2 composites reported in the literature [24].…”

Fe3O4C open hollow sphere assembled by nanocrystals and its application in lithium ion battery

“…To deal with the poor lithium ion diffusion in electrode materials which greatly affects the electrochemical performance, many approaches have been employed, such as carbon coating [4][5][6][7][8][9], nanostructure [10][11][12], and modified by electronically conductive phases [13][14][15]. Wan and co-workers [5] synthesized carbon-coated Fe 3 O 4 nanospindles with high reversible capacity (∼745 mAh g −1 at C/5 and ∼600 mAh g −1 at C/2).…”

Synthesis of mesoporous copper oxide microspheres with different surface areas and their lithium storage properties

“…This is because the porous structure may increase the electronic conductivity [51] of the Cu 2 O and CuO electrodes, which will result in a faster electron exchange on the interface of electrolyte/electrode, and a higher reversible capacity and longer cycling life [52,53]. The developed mesoporous structure and high specific surface area can increase the accommodation of lithium ions [54], shorten the diffusion distance for lithium ions [55], reduce charge transfer resistance [56], and increase the absorption of electrolyte [57]. It is well known that highly divided metal oxide particles are able to enhance electrochemical properties via promoting the decomposition of the electrolyte that they contact.…”
