The low initial coulombic efficiency of a Si-based anode can hinder the performance of practical full-cell Li-ion batteries (LIBs), as the irreversible capacity loss of the anode can diminish the reversible full-cell capacity and the energy efficiency.

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are used as anodes for flexible Li-ion micro-batteries. However, one of the major challenges in the growth of flexible micro-batteries with CNT as the anode is their immense capacity loss and a very low initial coulombic efficiency. In this study, we report the use of a facile direct pre-lithiation to suppress high irreversible capacity of the CNT electrodes in the first cycles. Pre-lithiated polymer-coated CNT anodes displayed good rate capabilities, studied up to 30 C and delivered high capacities of 850 mAh g−1 (313 μAh cm−2) at 1 C rate over 50 charge-discharge cycles.

We report an effective approach to fabricate layered-spinel capped nanotube assembled 3D Li-rich hierarchitectures as a cathode material for Li-ion batteries. The resultant material exhibits a reduced first-cycle irreversible capacity loss, rapid Li-ion diffusion rate and excellent cycle stability.

Layered GeS shows a large capacity of 1768 mA h g−1 with a coulombic efficiency of 94% for lithium storage. With good stability and a low voltage in alloying region, the LiCoO2//GeS full cell exhibits both high cell voltage and large capacity.

Dopamine was used as the carbon precursor to prepare SiO/C composite. Dopamine achieved self-polymerization and covered on the surface of the SiO particles in Tris-buffer, and the SiO/C composites were gained after heat-treating in the tube furnace under Argon. X-ray diffraction ( XRD ) , scanning electron microscope ( SEM ) were used to determine the phases obtained and to observe the morphologies of the composite. The galvanostatic discharge/charge test was carried out to characterize the electrochemical properties of the composite. When the sample of the mixed SiO and dopamine at a weight ratio of 1 : 3, the composite showed the best cycle ability with the discharge capacity of 1362 mAh g−1 in the first cycle, and the initial coulombic efficiency is 55.6%, after 50 cycles, the discharge capacity is 442 mAh g−1. The improved stability of the composite is attributed to carbon-coating forming during heat-treatment process.
