Abstract
The Fe-based anode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) has gained great attention due to their abundant resources, high theoretical capacity and chemical stability. In this work, FeSe2 and FeSe2/C were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method, and the samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, energy dispersive spectrometer and x-ray photoelectron spectrometer techniques, respectively. The electrochemical performances for both FeSe2 and FeSe2/C are tested as anode materials. These results exhibited that the FeSe2/C composite has better electrochemical performance. FeSe2/C composite has large specific capacities of 1060 mA h g−1 over 100 cycles at current density of 0.2 A g−1. The rate performance of FeSe2/C is also excellent. The capacity can be maintained at 697 mA h g−1 and 470 mA h g−1 at a current density of 3.0 A g−1 and 5.0 A g−1. The excellent performance of FeSe2/C composites makes it possible to be used as anode materials for LIB applications.
