Popis: | Sn is considered as a promising anode for lithium-ion batteries due to its low cost and high theoretical capacity (992 mA h g −1 with Li4.4Sn). However, the volume expansion (∼300%) during lithiation/delithiation process can result in the continuous pulverization of active materials and exfoliation from current collector, deteriorating the capacity and cycling performance. Here Co/Co3SnC0.7 N-doped carbon nanofibers are successfully synthesized by a feasible electrospinning method. And the materials as the self-standing anode for lithium-ion batteries reveal a high-rate performance as delivering reversible capacities of 480 mA h g−1 at 100 mA g−1 and 290 mA h g−1 at 2000 mA g−1. In addition, the specific capacity can still maintain 320 mA h g−1 at 500 mA g−1 even after 900 cycles, showing the outstanding cycling stability. The inactive metal Co and one-dimensional N-doped carbon nanofibers synergistically promote the electrochemical performance of the Sn-based anode by inhibiting the aggregation of the nanoparticles and buffering volume variation during lithiation/delithiation process. |
