A novel Fe3O4/C composite with a hierarchical pore carbon network has been synthesized simply by one-step pyrolysis synthesis using ferrous gluconate as the precursor, which shows excellent electrochemical properties as an anode material for LIBs.
Hollow nanomaterials provide abundant reaction sites and facilitate tolerance for volume changes during the charging- discharging process, which is potential candidates for alkaline ion storage. In this work, hollow CuO...
Pure 1T SnS2 was synthesized by the hydrothermal method and its atomic image was obtained. The Li-storage performance and its structure evolution were revealed by ex situ TEM.
A novel binder-free LIB anode made of ultrafine MoO2 nanoparticles encapsulated in hierarchically porous carbon nanofibers exhibits high Li-storage performance.
A novel shock-wave combustion synthesis method was developed for ultra-scalable, clean and energy efficient conversion of sand to nanostructured silicon with excellent performance as an anode material for Li-ion batteries.
