Firmly combination of CoMnOx nanocrystals supported on N-doped CNT for lithium-ion batteries
A novel one-dimensional CoMnOx/N-CNT composite was synthesized by binding Mn-Co nanoparticles on nitrogen doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNT) through solvothermal method and followed by high temperature pyrolysis. The as-made Mn-Co/N-CNT as LIBs anode material exhibits excellent rechargeable capability, i.e. 1028 mAh.g(-1) at 200 mA.g(-1). Doped nitrogen on CNT effectively increase the conductivity of the complex and the binding energy between Mn-Co nanoparticles and CNT, which lead to more stable and higher conductive complex during charge/discharge cycling process.
