Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) interconnected carbon nanofibrous mats containing well-dispersed MoO2+δ nanocrystals are fabricated through a facile electrospinning route followed by thermal treatment in N2. The resulting nanostructured monolithic hybrid mat made of C/MoO2+δ nanofibers exhibits superior Li-storage performances, when evaluated as a free-standing anode material. At a current density of 200 mA g−1, a reversible capacity as high as 876.9 mA h g−1 is achieved after 250 cycles. A capacity of 447.9 mA h g−1 could still be maintained after 1000 cycles even at a high current density of 2000 mA g−1, indicating high rate capability and cyclability. The attractive electrochemical performances of the as-obtained 3D C/MoO2+δ networks may benefit from the synergistic effects of the unique nanoarchitectures and the integrity of the electrodes. Monodispersed MoO2+δ nanocrystals encapsulated in carbon nanofibers not only provide interfacial storage but also improve the transport kinetics of electrons and lithium ions.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
