Metal silicates characterized as layered structure can promote the reversible intercalation/deintercalation of lithium ions, which are considered as promising anodes due to their high capacity and abundant reserves. [16][17][18][19] However, metal silicates have fatal defects due to their poor electrical conductivity (≈10 −4 -10 −8 S m −1 ) and large volumetric variation during cycling, causing poor rate capability and cycling performance. [20,21] To tackle these issues, researchers adopt two effective strategies, compounding metal silicates with carbonaceous materials and dwindling the material size from bulk to nanosize. [22][23][24] For instance, ultrathin nickel silicate nanoplates embedded into porous carbon tube (CNT) have been fabricated using tubular porous carbon/silica as raw materials by Lu group. The composite shows pleasurable rate performance and low capacity deterioration. [22] Wang et al. synthesized sandwich-like structure composite with nickel silicate nanoplates grown on reduced graphene oxide (RGO), which exhibits highly reversible lithium storage. [23] The nanoplate structure can shorten the transportation distance of lithium ion. The cooperation of CNT and RGO can improve the electronic conductivity effectively. The flexibility of CNT and RGO can relax the volume change during cycling. It manifests that combining two strategies together can greatly enhance the electrochemical performance of the composites.As a typical metal silicates, ferric silicate (FS) has been explored as anode material and exhibits electrochemical activity. [25][26][27] Due to its poor electronic conductivity and large volumetric variation, the lithium storage is not so satisfactory. It is reported that the composite decorated with good conductivity nanoparticles can improve its electrical conductivity and enhance the lithium storage. [11][12][13] Fe 3 O 4 has excellent conductivity with the conductance coefficient of 2.5 × 10 4 S m −1 , much higher than FS. Therefore, a unique hybrid structure with Fe 3 O 4 @ferric silicate anchored on the RGO is fabricated (FO@FS/RGO) via facile hydrothermal method to improve the electrochemical performance.As shown in Figure 1, in step I, SiO 2 was deposited on the surface of GO via modified Stöber method. In step II, SiO 2 was in situ transformed into amorphous FS nanosheets and FO nanoparticles are embedded in the nanosheets via Ferric silicate (FS) has been explored as a potential lithium ion batteries candidate for its environment benign, low cost, rich reserves, and high capacity. Despite these advantages, poor electronic conductivity and large volume variation obstruct its practical utilization. To improve its electrochemical performance, a unique hybrid structure with Fe 3 O 4 @ferric silicate nanosheets anchored on the reduced graphene oxide (FO@FS/RGO) is fabricated. The disordered amorphous nanosheet structure of FS not only shortens the transferred length for lithium ions but also facilities the Li + diffusion and can effectively keep the structure integrity.
