Li3VO4 anchored graphene nanosheets for long-life and high-rate lithium-ion batteries†
Abstract
Li3VO4 nanoparticles embedded in graphene nanosheets (Li3VO4@GNS) were obtained using a sol–gel method. The composite presents excellent high-rate performance with a stable capacity of 133 mA h g−1 at 50 C and long-life performance with a capacity retention rate of 63.1% after 5000 cycles at 5 C.
