Lithium-ion batteries are the state-of-the-art power source for most consumer electronic
devices. Current collectors are indispensable components bridging lithium-ion batteries and …

To advance current Li rechargeable batteries further, tremendous emphasis has been made
on the development of anode materials with higher capacities than the widely …

NiO is a highly appealing anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to its relatively
high Li storage capacity. However, its low electrical conductivity and large volume change …

Most transition metal oxides (TMOs) with medium conductivity and large volume expansion
upon lithiation have a relatively poor rate capability and cycling life. To improve the …

A novel leaven dough method was developed to prepare three-dimensional Ni foams, upon
which a thin NiO nanostructure was grown through thermal oxidation to form NiO/Ni foams …

For the first time, we demonstrate a template-assisting synthesis to make CoP nanotubes
(CoP NTs) through low-temperature phosphidation of Co salt inside a porous anodic …

High-entropy oxides (HEO) enable stabilization of numerous transition metals in a single
solid solution phase, and provide a new platform for electrode design, overcoming the rapid …

Improving the interfacial properties between the electrode materials and current collectors
plays a significant role in lithium-ion batteries. Here, four kinds of electrolytic copper foils …

Abstract Herein, NiO-decorated Ni nanowires with diameters ca. 30–150 nm derived from Ni
wire backbone (ca. 2 μm in diameter) is directly synthesized on commercially available Ni …

Metal-metal oxide composite materials have been garnering wide attention due to their
extraordinary properties and applications in several areas. Ni-NiO is an important …
