The investigation of Ni(OH)2/Ni as anodes for high performance Li-ion batteries

Ni(OH)2 nanowalls were prepared via a novel hydrothermal method, which show excellent cycling stability as anodes for Li-ion batteries. The initial discharge and charge capacities are 0.63 and 0.49 mA h cm−2, respectively, showing no evident capacity attenuation over 100 cycles.

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.

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.
