摘要
Magnesium ion batteries are emerging as promising alternatives to lithium ion batteries because of their advantages including high energydensity,dendrite-free features and low cost.Nevertheless,one of the major challenges for magnesium ion batteries is the kinetically sluggishmagnesium insertion/extraction and diffusion in electrode materials.Aiming at this issue,biphase eutectic-like bismuth-tin film is designedherein to construct a self-supporting anode with interdigitated phase distribution and hierarchically porous structure,and further fabricated bya facile one-step magnetron cosputtering route.As benchmarked with single-phase bismuth or tin film,the biphase bismuth-tin film delivershigh specific capacity (538 mAh/g at 50 mA/g),excellent rate performance (417 mAh/g at 1,000 mA/g) and good cycling stability (233 mAh/gat the 200th cycle).The superior magnesium storage performance of the sputtered bismuth-tin film could be attributed to the synergetic effectof the interdigitated bismuth/tin phase distribution,hierarchically porous structure and biphase buffering matrices,which could increase ionictransport channels,shorten diffusion lengths and reduce total volume changes.
