Abstract:
A novel hierarchical composite consisting of an ordered NiCo2O4 nanowire array growing on the lateral side of a Fe2O3 microdisc is presented, which was confirmed by X-ray holography technology on a synchrotron radiation station. The composite-based Li-ion battery anode exhibits a high capacity of 1528 mA h g-1 after 200 cycles at 0.2C, a recoverable rate-performance after repeated tests, and robust mechanical properties.
