Reconstruction of Mini‐Hollow Polyhedron Mn2O3 Derived from MOFs as a High‐Performance Lithium Anode Material

Electrodes: Reconstruction of Mini‐Hollow Polyhedron Mn2O3 Derived from MOFs as a High‐Performance Lithium Anode Material (Adv. Sci. 3/2016)

Nano electrochemical reactors of Fe2O3 nanoparticles embedded in shells of nitrogen-doped hollow carbon spheres as high-performance anodes for lithium-ion batteries.

Iron oxides are extensively investigated as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) because of their large specific capacities. However, they undergo huge volume changes during cycling that result in anode pulverization and loss of electrical connectivity. As a result, the capacity retention of the iron oxide anodes is poor and should be improved for commercial applications. Herein, we...

High interfacial lithium storage capability of hollow porous Mn2O3 nanostructures obtained from carbonate precursors.

The preparation of porous Mn2O3 boxes has been developed via a carbonate precursor route. As a Li-ion battery anode, it delivers a high reversible capacity of 1442 mA h g(-1) over 600 cycles at 800 mA g(-1), and 65% of the capacity originates from the gradually emerging interfacial storage contribution.

A high performance lithium-ion battery using LiNa0.02K0.01FePO4/C as cathode material and anatase TiO2 nanotube arrays as anode material

In this paper we report on a lithium ion battery (LIB) based on improved olivine lithium iron phosphate/carbon (LiFePO4/C) as cathode material and LiNa0.02K0.01FePO4/C  synthesized by sol-gel method and TiO2 nanotube arrays (TNAs) with an anatase phasesynthesized through anodization of Ti foil as an anode electrode. Crystallographic structure and surface morphology of the cathode and anode mate...

Three-Dimensional (3D) Bicontinuous Hierarchically Porous Mn2O3 Single Crystals for High Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries

Bicontinuous hierarchically porous Mn2O3 single crystals (BHP-Mn2O3-SCs) with uniform parallelepiped geometry and tunable sizes have been synthesized and used as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The monodispersed BHP-Mn2O3-SCs exhibit high specific surface area and three dimensional interconnected bimodal mesoporosity throughout the entire crystal. Such hierarchical interpenetr...
