The effects of laser energy density and annealing on the quality of the films are studied by x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The crystalline quality of AlN films is improved considerably by increasing the laser energy density while there is increased number of farraginous particles on the surface. The annealing treatment at 600~C produces a recrystallization process in the film, characterized by the improvement of the original crystallinity, the appearance of new crystalline orientations, and the increase of the crystallites. The surface becomes rougher due to the increase of the grain size during annealing.展开更多

Commercial foamed copper(Cu) current collectors are unsuitable for Li anodes because of their large volume and mass and lithiophobic nature. Herein, a three-dimensional(3 D) copper@tin(Cu@Sn) nanocone current collector with small volume, light weight, and lithiophilic nature was prepared by a simple electrodeposition method. The synergy of the nanoconical structure and lithiophilic Sn promotes the even deposition of Li and effectively inhibits the formation of Li dendrites. The resultant half batteries exhibit high Coulombic efficiency of 97.6% after 100 cycles at 1 mA cm^(-2), and the symmetrical Li battery demonstrates a prolonged lifespan of over 600 h at 1 mA cm^(-2). The full battery based on organic liquid electrolyte with LiFePO_(4) also exhibits a long lifespan of 550 cycles with high capacity retention of 95.1% at 1 C.Moreover, 3 D Cu@Sn nanocone-based solid-state batteries exhibit excellent electrochemical performance and show no decay after 500 cycles at 1 C. Our work provides a strategy for fabricating 3 D current collectors for high-energy-density Li metal batteries.展开更多
