摘要
The preparation of Sn2Co3 nanowire arrays (NWs) electrogrown inside the channels of polycarbonate membranes and their characterization as anodes for Li-ion batteries both in half-cell vs. Li and in battery configuration are reported. The Sn2Co3 NW electrodes tested by deep galvanostatic charge/discharge cycles in ethylene carbonate-dimethylcarbonate (1:1) - LiPF6 1 M displayed 80% capacity retention after 200 cycles at C/2 and 30 degrees C, and a high charge and discharge rate capability at C-rate from C/3 (0.33 A/g) to 10C (10 A/g) at 30 degrees and 10 degrees C. Electrodes with the highest alloy loading delivered up to 0.6 mAh cm(-2) at C/2. The performance of these electrodes in battery configuration with LiFePO4 as cathode is also reported, as well as the effect of the vinylene carbonate additive on the charge/discharge coulombic efficiency of the Sn2Co3 NWs.
