Atomically Engineered Encapsulation of SnS2 Nanoribbons by Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for High-Efficiency Lithium Storage
NANO LETTERS(2024)
摘要
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are integral to contemporary energy storage, yet current anode material systems struggle to meet the increasing demand for extended range capabilities. This work introduces a novel composite anode material composed of one-dimensional 2H-phase tin disulfide (SnS2) nanoribbons enclosed within cavities of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SnS2@SWCNTs), achieved through precise atomic engineering. Employing aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy, we precisely elucidated the crystal structure of SnS2 within the confines of the SWCNTs. This deliberate design effectively addresses the inherent limitations of SnS2 as a lithium-ion anode material, including its low electrical conductivity, considerable volume expansion effects, and unstable solid electrolyte interface membrane. Testing confirmed that SnS2 transforms into the Li5Sn2 alloy phase after full lithiation and back to SnS2 after delithiation, showing excellent reversibility. The composite also benefits from edge effects, improving lithium storage through stronger binding and lower migration barriers, which were supported by calculations. This pioneering work advances high-performance anode materials for applications.
