Problems solved by technology

Although these two methods are effective in synthesizing Ge nanowires, they also have some inherent disadvantages, such as the requirement for high temperature or low pressure; moreover, these two methods usually use refined and expensive toxic semiconductor precursors.
The electrochemical liquid-liquid-solid (EC LLS) method is a new method to electrodeposit germanium nanowires directly from aqueous solution, using liquid metal nanodroplets as seeds for ultramicroelectrodes and crystal growth; however, the obtained Electrodeposited nanowires have poor electrochemical performance as electrode materials

Abstract

The invention provides an application of a gallium-germanium nanowire as a lithium ion battery electrode material. The gallium-germanium nanowire comprises a simple substance germanium and a simple substance gallium, and an atomic ratio of the simple substance germanium to the simple substance gallium in the gallium-germanium nanowire is (4-9):1. The gallium-germanium nanowire as the electrode material of a lithium ion battery can improve the cell cycle performance and multiplying power performance of the lithium ion battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrode materials, in particular to the application of a germanium gallium nanowire as an electrode material of a lithium ion battery. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries have become the most important energy sources in portable devices and industrial energy storage systems due to their long cycle life, low self-discharge rate, and high operating voltage. However, the low energy density of about 150 Wh / kg is a challenge to meet the demands of future mobile devices. Since the graphite anode has a low reversible capacity of only 372mAh / g, it has become a worldwide hotspot to replace graphite with materials such as silicon, germanium, tin, and antimony to develop high-capacity lithium alloy anodes. Among them, silicon and germanium have become promising materials because of their theoretical capacities of 4200mAh / g and 1600mAh / g respectively. However, the common disadvantage of silicon an...
