Zn3V2O8 hexagon nanosheets: a high-performance anode material for lithium-ion batteries†
Abstract
Novel Zn3V2O8 hexagon nanosheets were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The Zn3V2O8 nanosheets were revealed to show a high performance as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries with good rate capacity, high cycling stability, and excellent discharge capacity up to 1103 mA h g−1 at a 200 mA g−1 current density.
