摘要
As a potential alternative cathode material,α-LiFeO2 suffers a realization handicap,mainly due to its poor electrical conductivity and low lithium ion diffusion rate.In this work,we have successfully synthesized α-LiFeO2/rGO nanocomposite through a layer by layer self-assembly modification process and annealing treatment.Due to the strong electrostatic attraction between opposite cha rged spices,α-LiFeO2 nanoparticles were homogeneously dispersed on the graphene sheet to form a typical interconnected conducting network which was bene ficial for electronic conductivity and ionic diffu sivity.In comparison to pristine α-LiFeO2,the α-LiFeO2/rGO displayed an excellent electrochemical perfo rmance with average discharge capacities of 238.9,187.2,178.4,121.8 and 99.5 mA hg^-1 at 0.1,0.2,0.5,1 and 2 C,respectively.Besides,the specific capacity retained 164.9 mA h g^-1 and 107.98 mA h g^-1 after 50 cycles at 0.5 C and 1 C,respectively.The remarkable progress in rate capability and cycling ability of this new nanocomposite developed a new approach to improve the electrochemical performance of α-LiFeO2.
