Abstract:
A nitrogen-containing carbon (N-C) film was synthesized by pyrolysis of vapor phase polymerized polypyrrole (PPy). This carbon film exhibits excellent rate capability and cyclability as a lithium-ion battery anode. The reversible capacities are 908.4, 825.7, 664.0, 531.6, 415.5 and 325.9 mA h g(-1) at 1C, 2C, 5C, 10C, 20C and 40C, respectively.
