Abstract
- How to well retain the specific structures during the thermal transformation from metal hydroxide, carbonate, or acetate precursors to metal oxides is a challenging mission. A novel SiO 2 scaffold method has been developed for the first time to synthesize 1D porous Fe 2 O 3 nanostructures. The coated SiO 2 shell supplies additional mechanical support to prevent the collapse of nanorod precursors during the heat-treatment. The obtained 1D porous nanostructures possess great benefits for electrochemical lithium storage, including high contact surface area between active materials and electrolyte, pores for easily electrolyte penetration, and shortened migration path for Li + and electron. When tested as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, the sample delivers high capacity and improved cyclic stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
