Abstract
Owing to the abundance and low price of sodium, researches on sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) as a lithium-ion battery (LIB) alternative are emerging as a consensus. It is crucial to develop electrode materials suitable for sodium storage. In recent years, two-dimensional (2D) layered transition metal disulfide compounds (TMDs) have trigered interest in the realm of energy and environmental fields. In particular, MoSe2 is thought to be a suitable material for SIBs due to its wide original layer spacing and high conductivity. Herein, N-doped dual carbon-coated MoSe2 with multichannel paths (MoSe2/multichannel carbon nanofibers (MCFs)@NC) is fabricated via electrospinning, followed by a selenation and carbonization process. The existence of a 3D conductive network, abundant void spaces, and sufficient electron transportation pathways are conducive to rapid and fast charge transfer kinetics under volume expansion stress. When applied in SIBs, the MoSe2/MCFs@NC shows a high capability (319 mA h g−1 at 10 A g−1), as well as good cycling stability (303 mA h g−1 after 1100 cycles at 10 A g−1). Furthermore, coupled with the Na3V2(PO4)2O2F cathode, the full cell also exhibits excellent performance. The theoretical calculation of the MoSe2/MCFs@NC confirms that the superiority of its SIB performance is owing to the strong interaction between the double-doped carbon and MoSe2. This scheme provides a wide space for preparing high-performance electrode materials for SIBs.
摘要
由于钠资源储量丰富且价格低廉, 钠离子电池(SIBs)可作为锂离 子电池(LIBs)的有效替代品已成为共识. 基于此, 开发适合钠存储的电 极材料是钠离子电池发展的关键. 近年来, 二维层状过渡金属硫属化物 在能源和环境领域受到广泛关注. 其中MoSe2, 由于其宽的层间距和较 高电导率, 被认为是一种具有潜力的SIBs负极材料. 本工作中, 我们通 过静电纺丝, 硒化及碳化过程, 设计制造了具有多通道电子传输路径的 氮掺杂双碳壳层MoSe2纳米材料(MoSe2/MCFs@NC). 此结构具有三维 连通的导电网络, 丰富的空隙和足够的电子传输路径, 有助于适应钠离 子脱嵌带来的体积膨胀应力, 并加快电荷转移动力学. 作为钠离子电池 负极材料时, MoSe2/MCFs@NC表现出高的比容量(10 A g−1电流密度下 为319 mA h g−1)和优异的循环稳定性(10 A g−1的电流密度下可循环 1100圈). 此外, 该材料在与Na3V2(PO4)2O2F正极材料组成的钠离子全电 池中也表现出了卓越的性能. 理论计算进一步验证了双碳壳层和MoSe2 之间的强相互作用, 对于提升MoSe2/MCFs@NC的钠离子电池综合性能 具有重要意义. 本研究为制备高性能钠离子电池电极材料提供了新 思路.
