The 3D porous Ge/N-doped carbon nanocomposite preparation by encapsulating 3D porous Ge in a nitrogen-doped carbon matrix is reported, exhibiting excellent electrochemical performance for Li-ion batteries.
Transition metal oxides are promising for Li-ion batteries but suffer from sluggish Li-ion storage in thick electrodes. This work achieves high-mass-loading Li-ion storage by forming holey porous structures in CoO nanosheets using layered hydrotalcites as starting materials.
Developing novel composite materials with delicate micro or nanoscale structures that enable fast lithium transport are crucial for the high performance anode materials of lithium batteries. Herein, we developed a...
