Sulfur-doped ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles with enhanced lithium storage capabilities
Source abstract
Abstract
Sulfur-doped ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized through sulfurizing ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles in the hydrothermal process using Na2S as the sulfur source. The content of sulfur dopant was tuned from 0.70 to 1.26 wt% by controlling concentrations of Na2S solutions. When evaluated as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, sulfur-doped ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles exhibited much higher reversible capacities, better rate performances, and more excellent cycling stabilities than the pristine ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles. After 60 cycles at a current density of 100 mA g−1, the electrode of sulfur-doped ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles (1.26 wt%) delivered a reversible specific capacity of 604 mA h g−1, while the pristine ZnFe2O4 electrode only remained 200 mA h g−1.
