Tin nano-spheres film was synthesized by electrodeposition based on the copper-nickel nano-pillars which were prepared by electrochemical method on the copper foil in an aqueous solution containing Cu (II) and Ni (II) at room temperature. The morphology, structure and composition of the as-prepared copper-nickel nano-pillars and tin nano-spheres were characterized by SEM, XRD, and EDS. The tin nano-spheres film anode features the large surface area, good electronic conductivity, and adhesion with the current collector, leading to the enhanced performance in lithium-ion batteries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
