Free-Standing SnO2@rGO Anode via the Anti-solvent-assisted Precipitation for Superior Lithium Storage Performance

Metal oxides have been attractive as high-capacity anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. However, oxide anodes encounter drastic volumetric changes during lithium ion storage through the conversion reaction and alloying/dealloying processes, leading to rapid capacity decay and poor cycling stability. Here, we report a free-standing SnO2@reduced graphene oxide (SnO2@rGO) composite anode, in which SnO2 nanoparticles are tightly wrapped within...
