Construction of hybrid bowl-like structures by anchoring NiO nanosheets on flat carbon hollow particles with enhanced lithium storage properties

Abstract

Bowl-like hybrid structures have been designed and fabricated by anchoring NiO nanosheets on flat carbon hollow particles. When evaluated as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries, these unique NiO/carbon hybrid particles exhibit superior lithium storage properties in terms of high capacity, long term cycling stability and excellent rate capability.
