Abstract:With the advancement of the portable technology, the need for the new-generation batteries has increased accordingly. Li-ion batteries (LIB) first commercialized in the early 1990s have long served as the life-saver till our days. Though, they also possess a number of issues in terms of theoretical capacity, safety, cost, ageing and so on. The commercialized graphite and Li4Ti5O12 anodes used nowadays in LIBs have theoretical capacities of ~372 mAh/g and 350 mAh/g, which is quite low compared to other anode ma… Show more
