Abstract

A high and stable reversible specific capacity (1277.7 mAh g−1) was successfully achieved by the CoFe2O4/ordered mesoporous carbon nanohybrids (CFO/CMK-3) composite anode at the current density of 0.1 A g−1 after 100 cycles. CFO/CMK-3 electrode also exhibited a stable capacity up to 733.2 and 482.6 mAh g−1 at the current densities of 0.5 and 1 A g−1 after 500 cycles, respectively. The CFO particles were found to be uniformly distributed inside the pore channels of CMK-3. Structure characterization before and after 100 tests revealed that the specific CMK-3 mesoporous structure and CFO crystallites remained unchanged. The stability of the anode composite stability and the rapid redox capability of CFO gave rise to superior lithium storage capacity and excellent cycling stability. CFO/CMK-3 showed a great promise to serve as anode for high-performance lithium-ion battery.
