| Summary: | Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets attached with ferrocene were prepared via a
scalable solvothermal route. For Li ion battery electrode applications, the ferrocene
greatly improves the specific capacity while the rGO serves as light-weight flexible
platform to anchor the ferrocene molecules to prevent them from dissolving into the
aprotic electrolyte. These ferrocene/rGO nanohybrids showed excellent improvement in
lithium storage performance, especially at high current densities. |
