Single-crystalline α-MoO3 microbelts derived from a bio-templating method for superior lithium storage application

Herein, novel single-crystalline Ge nanotetrahedrons with dominantly exposed (102) facets are synthesized via a liquid-phase chemical reduction strategy. Polyvinyl pyrrolidone is innovatively employed to mediate the product morphology, while the reaction time also plays a significant role. As the anode materials for lithium ion batteries, the nanoscale size effect, highly active crystal planes and lightened agglomeration guarantee the excellent performance of Ge nanotetrahedrons. They could maintain a capacity of 730 mAhg–1 after 100 cycles at 160 mAg–1, and exhibited greatly enhanced rate capability when compared with Ge random nanoparticles.

Single crystalline lithium nickel manganese oxide ( LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4) nanotubes have been prepared by a facile self-templating method from β- MnO 2 nanotubes. The wall thickness and hollow part of the nanotubes are around 250 nm and 200 nm, respectively. The tubular LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 exhibits good rate capability and high-rate cycling stability. At 10 C, it can yield a high discharge capacity of 99 mAh g-1. After 550 cycles at 5 C, a discharge capacity of 85 mAh g-1 can be kept, indicating a promising application in high-power Li -ion batteries.
