Owing to high safety, low cost, nontoxicity, and environment-friendly features, LiFePO4 that is served as the lithium ion battery cathode has attracted much attention. In this paper, a novel 3D LiFePO4@C core-shell configuration anchored on carbon cloth is synthesized by a facile impregnation sol-gel approach. Through the binder-free structure, the active materials can be directly combined with the current collector to avoid the falling of active materials and achieve the high-efficiency lithium ion and electron transfer. The traditional slurry-casting technique is applicable for pasting LiFePO4@C powders onto the 2D aluminum foil current collector (LFP-Al). By contrast, LFP-CC exhibits a reversible specific capacity of 140 mAh·g-1 and 93.3 mAh·g-1 at 1C and 10C, respectively. After 500 cycles, no obvious capacity decay can be observed at 10C while keeping the coulombic efficiency above 98%. Because of its excellent capacity, high-rate performance, stable electrochemical performance, and good flexibility, this material has great potentials of developing the next-generation high-rate performance lithium ion battery and preparing the binder-free flexible cathode.

Design and synthesis of ZnO@TiO2 core-shell nanorod arrays as promising photocatalysts have been widely reported. However, it remains a challenge to develop a low-temperature, low-cost, and environmentally friendly method to prepare ZnO@TiO2 core-shell nanorod arrays over a large area for future device applications. Here, a facile, green, and efficient route is designed to prepare the ZnO@TiO2 nanorod arrays with a highly uniform core-shell structure over a large area on Zn wafer via a vapor-thermal method at relatively low temperature. The growth mechanism is proposed as a layer-by-layer assembly. The photocatalytic decomposition reaction of methylene blue (MB) reveals that the ZnO@TiO2 core-shell nanorod arrays have excellent photocatalytic activities when compared with the performance of the ZnO nanorod arrays. The improved photocatalytic activity could be attributed to the core-shell structure, which can effectively reduce the recombination rate of electron-hole pairs, significantly increase the optical absorption range, and offer a high density of surface active catalytic sites for the decomposition of organic pollutants. In addition, it is very easy to separate or recover ZnO@TiO2 core-shell nanorod array catalysts when they are used in water purification processes.
