Abstract
In this paper, a novel nanocrystalline cadmium molybdate with nanorod morphology has been successfully prepared via hydrothermal method at relatively low temperature. The structure, composition, morphology of the prepared material was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), respectively. The XRD data shows that the nanorods may have grown preferentially along the (001) axis. The diameters of these nanorods are within 30–50 nm in the TEM. The electrochemical intercalation of lithium into this compound and the cycling performance were first tested as the cathode material of lithium rechargeable battery. At the same time, the nanorod morphology presented here can also be helpful for the other property studies of CdMoO4.
