Abstract

The design of electrode materials with specific structures is considered a promising approach for improving the performance of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this paper, FeO/CoO hollow nanocages coated with a N-doped carbon layer (FCO@NC) was prepared using Fe-Co-based Prussian blue analogs (PBA) as a precursor. During the synthesis, dopamine was the carbon and nitrogen source. The reducing atmosphere was assured via NH3/Ar, which regulated the vacancies in the structure of FCO@NC as well as increased its conductivity. When used as anode materials for LIBs, the FCO@NC nanocages deliver a high reversible capacity of 774.89 mAh·g−1 at 0.3 A·g−1 after 200 cycles with a capacity retention rate of 80.4% and 426.76 mAh·g−1 after 500 cycles at a high current density of 1 A·g−1. It is demonstrated that the hollow nanocage structure can effectively enhance the cycle stability, and the heat treatment in NH3/Ar atmosphere contributes to the oxygen vacancy content of the electrode materials, further facilitating its conductivity and electrochemical performance.

摘要

设计具有特殊结构的负极材料是改善锂离子电池性能的有效措施。本文以铁钴基普鲁士蓝类似物（PBA）为前驱体，制备了包覆氮掺杂碳层（FCO@NC）的FeO/CoO中空纳米笼。以多巴胺为氮源和碳源，煅烧过程中通过NH3/Ar调节FCO@NC结构中的空位，提高其电导率。当用作l锂离子电池负极材料时，FCO@NC纳米笼在200次循环后在0.3 A·g−1电流密度下可保持774.89 mAh·g−1的高可逆容量，容量保持率为80.4%，在1 A·g−1的高电流密度下500次循环后容量为426.76 mAh·g−1。结果表明，中空纳米笼结构可以有效提高循环稳定性，在NH3/Ar气氛中的热处理有助于增加电极材料的氧空位含量，进一步促进其导电性和电化学性能。
