Popis: | Silicon doped tin oxide embedded porous carbon microspheres (Siy Sn1-y Ox @C) are synthesized. It is found that the doped Si not only improves the reversibility of lithiation/delithiation reactions, but also prevents Sn from aggregation. In addition, the doped Si introduces extra defects into the carbon matrix and produces Li+ conductive Li4 SiO4 , which accelerates Li+ diffusion. Together with the conductive, porous carbon matrix that provides void space to accommodate the volume change of Sn during charge/discharge cycling, the novel Siy Sn1-y Ox @C exhibits excellent electrochemical performance. It shows a high initial columbic efficiency of 75.9%. A charge (delithiation) capacity of 880.32 mA h g-1 is retained after 150 cycles, i.e., 91% of the initial capacity. These results indicate that the as-synthesized Siy Sn1-y Ox @C is a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries. |
