The fine electrochemical performance of porous Cu3P/Cu and the high energy density of Cu3P as anode for Li-ion batteries

Porous Cu3P/Cu anode was prepared, which shows good electrochemical performance because of a novel electrochemical reconstruction in cycling. The compatible voltage plateau, specific capacity and density of Cu3P suggest that it can be an ideal high energy density anode for Li-ion batteries.

Superior electrochemical performance of Li3VO4/N-doped C as an anode for Li-ion batteries

A high performance Li3VO4/N-doped C anode was successfully prepared, which delivers an initial discharge/charge capacity of 600/472 mA h g−1 at 150 mA g−1, maintaining 462/460 mA h g−1 after 100 cycles. It shows no capacity attenuation over 2200 cycles at 2000 mA g−1, delivering a discharge/charge capacity of 267/264 mA h g−1.

The preparation of NiV3O8/Ni composite via an in situ corrosion method and its use as a new sort of anode material for Li-ion batteries

A NiV3O8/Ni composite was successfully prepared via a novel in situ corrosion method, which shows good electrochemical performance as a new sort of anode for Li-ion batteries. After 60 cycles at various rates from 0.1 to 20 C, the discharge capacity can be restored when the charge–discharge rate is lowered to 0.1 C.
