Superior electrochemical performance of Li3VO4/N-doped C as an anode for Li-ion batteries

Abstract

A high performance Li₃VO₄/N-doped C anode was successfully prepared, which delivers an initial discharge/charge capacity of 600/472 mA h g⁻¹ at 150 mA g⁻¹, maintaining 462/460 mA h g⁻¹ after 100 cycles. It shows no capacity attenuation over 2200 cycles at 2000 mA g⁻¹, delivering a discharge/charge capacity of 267/264 mA h g⁻¹.
