Fabrication of CuO/C films with sisal-like hierarchical microstructures and its application in lithium ion batteries

Self-assembled sandwich-like NiO film and its application for Li-ion batteries

“…3d transition metal oxides (M-O, M is Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu) have been widely studied as anodes for lithium ion batteries due to their high theoretic capacity, excellent reversibility of electrode reaction and low cost [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Among these transition metal oxides, NiO has been paid much attention due to its attractive advantages such as high theoretic capacity (718 mAh g −1 ), nontoxicity and low material cost.…”

Fabrication of highly ordered porous nickel phosphide film and its electrochemical performances toward lithium storage

“…The initial capacity loss commonly reflects the formation of large-scale SEI during the discharging process and the incomplete decomposition in the subsequent charging process [1,[24][25][26][27]. The capacity loss of porous Ni 3 P film during the first cycle is a little larger than that of the dense one.…”

Pure and Alloyed Copper‐Based Nanoparticles Supported on Activated Carbon: Synthesis and Electrocatalytic Application in the Reduction of Nitrobenzene

“…The average particle size of Cu/AC(N)-H 2 was calculated to be around 7 nm from the width of the CuO (111, 200) peak at 2 q = 38.68. [19,34] The surface properties of the supported Cu-Cu x O nanoparticles were analyzed by XPS (Figure 7). The dominant peak in the Cu 2p 3/2 signal of Cu/AC(S)-N 2 H 4 corresponds to either Cu or Cu 2 O species, and is assigned to metallic copper based on the XRD data of these samples.…”
