Abstract
SnO2-reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite in the form of a free-standing film was prepared by simple chemical synthesis. The homogeneous and compact formation of the nanocomposite of SnO2 and reduced graphene oxide was confirmed by various analysis methods. When incorporated as anode in lithium-ion batteries, a high capacity (503 mAh g-1) and very stable cycle life were observed. These favorable properties probably arise from the efficient relaxation of high mechanical stress by the reduced graphene-oxide layers during the lithiation-delithiation process within SnO2.
