The carbonization temperature of the precursors is the key factor for the formation of M02C nanoparticles on the carbon nanofibers (MCNFs). Compared with the Mo2N nanoparticles embedded into N-doped carbon nanofibers film (MNNFs) and N-doped carbon nanofibers film (NFs), the battery with MCNFs cathode is capable of operation with a high-capacity (10,509 mAhg-1 at 100 mAg-l), a much reduced discharge-charge voltage gap, and a long-term life (124 cycles at 200 mA g-1 with a specific capacity limit of 500 mAh g -1). These excellent performances are derived from the synergy of the following advantageous factors: (1) the hierarchically self-standing and binder-free structure of MCNFs could ensure the high diffusion flux of Li+ and O2 as well as avoid clogging of the discharge product, bulk Li202; (2) the well dispersed M02C nanoparticles not only afford rich active sites, but also facilitate the electronic transfer for catalysis.展开更多
