摘要
We report here on the lithium storage performance of alpha- and gamma-Fe(2)O(3), undergoing conversion reaction at C/10 and 2C. Both alpha- and gamma-Fe(2)O(3) transform to nanostructured Fe/Li(2)O composite during the first discharge, while the first charge results in the formation of nanosized gamma-Fe(2)O(3). Such a transition from alpha-Fe(2)O(3) to gamma-Fe(2)O(3) is attributed to its thermodynamics at the nanosize. Better storage performance of gamma-Fe(2)O(3) at 2C compared with alpha-Fe(2)O(3) is attributed to the formation of highly crystalline, nanosized gamma-Fe(2)O(3). Apart from the reported inherent electronic conductivity of alpha-Fe(2)O(3), the thermodynamics at the nanosize is also found to be one of the rate-limiting factors.
