چکیده

Few-layer V(2)O(5) nanosheets with a thickness of 2.1-3.8 nm have been successfully synthesized in this work via a simple and scalable liquid exfoliation technique. The unique nanostructure allows the high-rate transportation of lithium ions and electrons due to very short diffusion paths provided by this ultrathin thickness, resulting in Li-ion cathodes with remarkable energy and power densities.

Supercritically exfoliated ultrathin vanadium pentoxide nanosheets with high rate capability for lithium batteries.

Ultrathin V2O5 nanosheets were successfully prepared through supercritical solvothermal reaction followed by annealing treatment. The formation of ultrathin nanosheets is owing to Ostwald ripening and the effect of supercritical fluids. As cathode material for lithium batteries, the ultrathin V2O5 nanosheets exhibit a capacity of 108 mA h g(-1) at a high rate of up to 10 C at 2.4-4 V and excell...

Bottom-up approach toward single-crystalline VO2-graphene ribbons as cathodes for ultrafast lithium storage.

Although lithium ion batteries have gained commercial success owing to their high energy density, they lack suitable electrodes capable of rapid charging and discharging to enable a high power density critical for broad applications. Here, we demonstrate a simple bottom-up approach toward single crystalline vanadium oxide (VO2) ribbons with graphene layers. The unique structure of VO2-graphene ...

Controllable Preparation of V2O5/Graphene Nanocomposites as Cathode Materials for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Transition metal oxides and graphene composites have been widely reported in energy storage and conversion systems. However, the controllable synthesis of graphene-based nanocomposites with tunable morphologies is far less reported. In this work, we report the fabrication of V2O5 and reduced graphene oxide composites with nanosheet or nanoparticle-assembled subunits by adjusting the solvotherma...

Nanoporous LiMn2O4 nanosheets with exposed {111} facets as cathodes for highly reversible lithium-ion batteries†

Control over porosity and exposed highly reactive facets is challenging in the area of materials science. Materials with high porosity and reactivity of exposed facets are favorable candidates in catalysis and energy storage. Here we demonstrate a facile template-free route to synthesize nanoporous LiMn2O4 nanosheets composed of single-crystalline LiMn2O4 nanorods with exposed {111} facets via ...
