Transition metal vanadium oxides and vanadate materials for lithium batteries

Facile synthesis of porous Mn2O3 microsphere as an anode material for lithium ion batteries

“…Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is a fast-developing technology in electric energy storage, are the dominant power source for a wide range of the communications, transportation and renewable-energy sectors [1,2]. The current choice of anode materials for LIBs is graphite due to its long cycle life, abundant material supply and relatively low cost.…”

An Experimental and Computational Study of β-AgVO3: Optical Properties and Formation of Ag Nanoparticles

“…In the past years, materials based on silver vanadium oxide, such as AgVO 3, have attracted much interest owing to their technological applications in areas such as sensors, electrical and antibacterial agents, implantable medical devices, and photocatalysts [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] . This material is present in two stable phases, namely, α-AgVO 3 and β-AgVO 3 1, 15, 16 , both having a monoclinic structure, and α-AgVO 3 can be irreversibly transformed to β-AgVO 3 at around 200 °C 16 .…”

Synthesis and properties of Fe0.83V1.17O4

“…Transition metal orthovanadates of general formula MVO 4 , where M = Cr, Fe, In, have been extensively studied because of their potential use as electrode materials in lithium secondary batteries [1][2][3][4]. One of the most attractive properties of orthovanadates during the insertion of lithium ions is their high charge insertion capacity.…”
