Rational construction the composite of graphene and hierarchical structure assembled by Fe2O3 nanosheets for lithium storage
Electrochimica Acta(2017)
Abstract
Taking the advantage of hierarchical nanostructures into consideration, herein a facile and template free approach to achieve hierarchical microspheres assembled from the α-Fe2O3 nanosheet was formulated. The followed freeze-drying treatment is employed to realize the construction of nanostructured Fe2O3/graphene composite. The unique hierarchical structure of α-Fe2O3 combined with the flexible graphene layer not only effectively buffer the volume expansion during the cycling process, but also promote the transport of lithium ion and electron through three-dimensional networks when being assessed for lithium ion battery. The as-obtained composite exhibits significantly enhanced cycling stability (1850mAhg−1 after 190 cycles at the current of 300mAg−1) and superior rate performance (around 520mAhg−1 for the current of 5000mAg−1). The obtained-results illustrate that the rational designing of the nanostructured composite can result in the fast lithium insertion/de-insertion in lithium ion batteries which mimic merits seen in high-power electrochemical capacitors.
