Abstract

Flexible electrodes (C–Si/C) composed of Si/C fibers trapped in carbon fiber frames via double-nozzle electrospinning improve the cycling stability and rate capability of Si/C fabrics. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) has been demonstrated as a superior carbon matrix for Si compared with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) annealed using the same heat-treatment process.
