Incorporation of heterostructured Sn/SnO nanoparticles in crumpled nitrogen-doped graphene nanosheets for application as anodes in lithium-ion batteries†
Abstract
Sn/SnO nanoparticles are incorporated in crumpled nitrogen-doped graphene nanosheets by a simple melting diffusion method. The resulting composite exhibits large specific capacity, excellent cycling stability and high rate capability as an anode for lithium-ion batteries.
