Metal oxides have the potential to replace commercial graphite as anode materials for lithium ion batteries, with the controllable synthesis of amorphous/crystalline MnCo2Ox nanoparticles within porous carbon nanofibers showing promising results. The optimized material delivers high stable capacity and excellent electrode performance, attributed to the synergistic effect of its unique structure.
Metal oxides are prospective alternative anode materials to the commercial graphite for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), while their practical application is seriously hampered by their poor conductivities and large volume changes. Herein, we report the controllable synthesis of amorphous/crystalline MnCo2Ox nanoparticles within porous carbon nanofibers (marked as MCO@CNFs) through a facile electrospinning strategy and subsequent annealing reactions. The phase structures from Co to MnOx amorphous MnCo2Ox and crystalline MnCo2O4.5 can be readily tuned by thermal reduction/oxidation under controlled atmosphere and temperature. When examined as anode for LIBs, the optimized MCO@CNFs delivers a high stable capacity of 780.3 mA h g(-1) at 200 mA g(-1) after 250 cycles, which is attributed to the synergistic effect of the distinctive amorphous structure and defective carbon nanofiber matrices. Specifically, the amorphous structure with rich defects offers more reactive sites and multiple pathways for the Li+ diffusion, while carbon hybridization sufficiently improves the electrode conductivities as well as buffers the volume changes. More importantly, we demonstrate a convenient synthesis strategy to control the metalto-oxide structure evolution within carbon matrices, which is of great importance in exploring highperformance electrodes for next generation LIBs.
