Multi-channel-contained few-layered MoSe2 nanosheet/N-doped carbon hybrid nanofibers prepared using diethylenetriamine as anodes for high-performance sodium-ion batteries

초록

A facile new strategy for the synthesis of multi-channel-contained N-doped carbon nanofibers composed of few-layered MoSe2 nanosheets (denoted as MC-NCNF/MoSe2) was introduced and the composite was demonstrated as an anode material for sodium-ion batteries. This was the first time that diethylenetriamine was introduced as a pore generator in the electrospinning process and played a key role in generating multi-channels in the structure by phase-separation from the molybdenum salt and subsequent volatilization without any additional process. Polyvinylpyrrolidone was used as a carbon precursor and played the role of a N-doping source for the carbon matrix. MC-NCNF/MoSe2 achieved a high reversible discharge capacity of 386 mA h g(-1) at a current density of 0.5 A g(-1) after the 300th cycle and superior rate capability of 285 mA h g(-1) at 10.0 A g(-1). The multi-channeled structure of MC-NCNF/MoSe2 facilitated effective Na+ and electron diffusion during repeated discharge/charge processes and accommodated the huge volume expansion of the MoSe2 nanosheets induced by electrochemical reaction of the Na+ ion.
