Abstract:
Ternary transition metal oxides (TMOs) are potentially promising anode materials for lithium storage with high power and energy density. Designing appropriate electrode structures is an effective strategy to sufficiently exhibit the advantages of TMOs for lithium storage. Here, we present the synthetic process and electrochemical properties of carbon-coated mesoporous Ni-Mn-Co-O (NMCO) nanowire arrays (NWAs) grown on Ni foam as an integrated electrode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The electrochemical measurements show that the carbon-coated NMCO integrated electrode exhibits high capacity and cycling properties. In addition, we have also developed an all one-dimensional (1D) structural full cell using an LiMn2O4 nanorod cathode and an NMCO/Ni NWAs@C-550 anode, which exhibits relatively outstanding cycling properties.
