Abstract:The rapid increase in demand for high-performance lithium ion batteries (LIBs) has prompted the development of high capacity anode materials that can replace/complement the commercial graphite. Transition metal oxides (TMOs) have attracted great attention as high capacity anode materials because they can store multiple lithium ions (electrons) per unit formula via conversion reaction, resulting in high specific capacity (700-1,200 mAh g<sup>-1</sup>) and volumetric capacity (4,000-5,500 mAh cm<s… Show more
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.
