Abstract:
The introduction of oxygen vacancies (OVs) into Nb2O5 can not only provide more active sites for lithium storage but also change the electronic structure of Nb2O5 to boost electron/ion transport kinetics. Consequently, the defective Nb2O5-x exhibits high lithium storage capacity, superior rate capability, and cycling stability.
