摘要
This work deals with nitrogen-doped TiO2 nanofibers with increased ionic conductivity and good catalytic activity, as a potential cathode catalyst for lithium-air battery. The electrochemical enhancement with nitrogen-doped TiO2 in comparison with pristine TiO2 could be realized by the changed electronic properties correlated with the evolution of oxygen vacancies altering the surface oxidation state of TiO2. A discharge capacity greater than 11 000 mA h g((carbon))(-1) and a cyclic retention more than 25 cycles were achieved with the corresponding nitrogen-doped TiO2 catalyst.
