- Abstract
- Metal selenite materials have unique advantages from forming metal oxide and selenide heterostructure nanocrystals, which assist in accelerating electron and lithium-ion transportation and providing more active sites via interfacial coupling, during the first cycle. In this study, synthesis of amorphous iron selenite materials derived via oxidation at a low temperature of 250 degrees C of crystalline iron selenide was firstly researched in detail, and their composite (FeSeO-C-CNT) with carbon materials was applied as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries. The reversible reaction mechanism of iron selenite with Li ions is described by the reaction: Fe2O3+ FeSe2 + xSeO(2) + (1 - x)Se + (4x + 12)Li+ (4x + 12)e(-) <-> 3Fe + (2x + 3)Li2O + 3Li(2)Se. FeSeO-C-CNT composite electrode showed high reversible capacities of 617 mA h g(-1) for the 1800th cycle even at an extremely high current density of 30 A g(-1), which surprisingly indicated that FeSeO-C-CNT is enabled to fully charge in a very short time of 72 s. This study demonstrated that amorphous iron selenite materials could be excellent candidates for new anode compositions with high capacities and fast electrochemical kinetics properties.
