摘要
The NbO electrode materials were successfully synthesized by high-temperature solid-phase method using Nb powders and Nb2O5 powders as raw materials. The crystalline structure, morphology, and electrochemical properties of the obtained materials were characterized by X-ray diffi＇action （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, dynamic light scattering instrument （DLSA）, half- cell charge-discharge tests, and cyclic voltammetry （CV）. The reaction mechanism of lithium with NbO was inves- tigated by ex-situ XRD studies. The results show that material average Li storage voltage is nearly located at 1.6 V, and the lithium intercalation into NbO remains a single-phase process. For the first discharge, a capacity of 355 mAh·g^-1 is obtained at a current rate of 0.1C, and 293 mAh·g^-1is maintained after 50 cycles, whereas a capacity of 416 mAh·g^-1 is obtained at a current rate of 0.1C alter ball milling. And 380 mAh·g^-1 reversible capacity remains for the ball milling sample.
