Preparation and Characteristics of MWNT/SnO2Nanocomposites Anode by Colloidal Heterocoagulation for Li-ion Battery

FeMnO3: a high-performance Li-ion battery anode material.

In this communication, FeMnO3 particles were prepared and evaluated as an anode material for Li ion batteries. This electrode shows high capacity, excellent rate capability, and good cycling stability (984 mA h g-1 at 1.0 A g-1 after 500 cycles). Moreover, the Li storage mechanism is studied.

Preparation and Electrochemical Properties of Cathode and Anode Materials for Lithium Ion Battery by Aerosol Process

All-carbon-based porous topological semimetal for Li-ion battery anode material.

Topological state of matter and lithium batteries are currently two hot topics in science and technology. Here we combine these two by exploring the possibility of using all-carbon-based porous topological semimetal for lithium battery anode material. Based on density-functional theory and the cluster-expansion method, we find that the recently identified topological semimetal bco-C16 is a prom...

Electrochemical properties of iron oxide nanoparticles as an anode for Li-ion batteries

The synthesis of iron oxide nano-particles by direct thermal decomposition was studied. Simultaneous thermal analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results confirmed the formation of iron-urea complex, and disclosed iron oxide formation mechanism. Calcination of the iron-urea complex at 200°C and 250°C for 2 hrs. resulted in the formation of maghemite along with hematite as a seco...

Electrochemical properties of Sn-decorated SnO nanobranches as an anode of Li-ion battery

Sn-based oxide materials as an anode of lithium ion batteries (LIBs) suffer from the unavoidable mechanical stress originated from huge volume changes during lithiation/delithiation reactions. We synthesized the hierarchical SnO nanobranches (NBs) decorated with Sn nanoparticles on Cu current collector using a vapor transport method. The Sn-decorated SnO NBs as an anode of LIB showed good elect...
