ZnS nanoparticles embedded in porous carbon matrices as anode materials for lithium ion batteries†
Abstract
In situ synthesis of a novel zinc sulfide/porous carbon composite (ZnS/PC) with ZnS nanoparticles finely embedded in porous carbon matrices is achieved by virtue of the metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) strategy. The as-obtained ZnS/PC exhibits significant electrochemical performance as an anode material for lithium ion batteries.
