Capacitive Properties

The precursor Ni (OH)2 was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method with hexamethylenetetramine ((CH2)6N4) as precipitant and template, and then NiO was gained after calcination. The phase and morphology of the synthesized product were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the electrochemical capacitive characterization was performed using cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronopotentiometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in a 6mol/L KOH aqueous solution electrolyte. The result shows that spherical NiO without impurity was synthesized, the average diameter of the spheres is 5 um and these spheres were constructed by the interactive arrangement of many nanoflakes in three dimensions. This kind of NiO shows the typical electrochemical characteristics of pseudo capacitance with high specific capacity and excellent rate capability. The specific capacity can reach 515F/g at the current density of 1A/g

We demonstrate a general method for the preparation of a series of 3D alkali metal vanadate aerogels, including NaV3O8, NaV6O15, and K0.25V2O5. The resulting aerogels exhibit excellent Li+ storage properties in terms of high specific capacity, good rate capability, and outstanding cyclic stability as cathodes for LIBs.

Li0.99Gd0.01FePO4/C composite was prepared by solid-state reaction, using particle modification with amorphous carbon from the decomposition of glucose and lattice doping with supervalent cation Gd3+. All samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, multi-point Brunauer Emmett and Teller methods. The electrochemical tests show Li0.99Gd 0.01FePO4/C composite obtains the highest discharge specific capacity of 154 mAh.g-1 at C/10 rate and the best rate capability. Its specific capacity reaches 131 mAh.g-1 at 2 C rate. Its capacity loss is only 14.9 % when the rate varies from C/10 to 2 C.

Li4Ti5O12(LTO) and Li4Ti5O12/TiO2/Li0.4TiO2/C (LTO/C) composite were prepared by the electrospinning method using acetic acid, ethanol, butyl titanate, lithium acetate and PVP (K90) as the raw materials. The phase structure and the morphology were characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. It was found that the specific capacity was 356mAh/g at 0.5C for the composite, which was higher than the theoretical specific capacity of the pure Li4Ti5O12 due to the inclusion of other phase. Moreover, the C-rate performance for the composite was also better than that of the pure Li4Ti5O12 resulting from the formation of carbon-based fiber structure. Electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS) revealed that the composite exhibited the improved electronic conductivity than that of Li4Ti5O12.

Doped and undoped titanium dioxide films have been deposited on indium tin oxide glass using the sol-gel technique. The percentage of rutile in the prepared TiO2, calcined at 823 K and determined by X-ray diffraction, was 23% compared to 24% of rutile in P25-TiO2. Cerium doped TiO2 showed mainly the anatase phase, as characterised by both X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The electrochemical and photoelectrochemical properties of the films were studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The (photo)electrochemical characteristics of the different films are reported and discussed.
