It is developed with the nominal composition of Fe735-Cu1-Ta3-Si13.5-B9 by single-roller melt spinning technique in air. The dielectric constant and loss factor have been measured both for as cast and annealed samples using Agilent Impedance analyzer. They are found to decrease with frequency up to 10 MHz and remain constant afterwards. The decrease of dielectric constant and loss factor with frequency is due to ceasing of orientational polarizability. Their constancy is owing to presence of only electronic contribution to its polarizability above 10 MHz. Three distinct regions (1-4 MHz, 4-10 MHz and 10 MHz-1 GHz) also noticed from its frequency dependence, which might make it useful in switching and sensor devices. The temperature dependence of dielectric constant and loss factor maintain inverse relationship: (1) dielectric constant increases, and (2) loss factor decreases with annealing temperature for structural relaxation due to thermal agitation.展开更多

Although with the presence of organic sources in synthesis process, the pure phase Li3VO4 with superior nanofibrous morphology is still successfully obtained through adjusting different heat treatment processes and different vanadium sources. The prepared Li3VO4@C nanofibers exhibit a unique structure in which nanosized Li3VO4 particles are uniformly embedded in amorphous carbon matrix. Compared with LiBVO4/C powder, Li3VO4@C nanofibers display enhanced reversible capacity of 451 mAhg^-1 at 40mAg^-1 with an increased initial coulombic efficiency of 82.3%, and the capacity can remain at 394 mAh g ^-1 after 100 cycles. This superior electrochemical performance can be attributed to its unique structure which ensures a high reactivity by nanosized Li3VO4, more stable electrode/electrolyte interface by carbon encapsulation, improved electronic conductivity and buffered volume changes by flexible carbon matrix. The electrospinning technology provides an effective method to obtain high performance Li3VO4 as a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries.展开更多
