Claims17
An anode material comprising pre-lithiated α-MoO3 nanostructures.
A method of fabricating an anode material, comprising the steps of:
- synthesizing α-MoO3;
- adding Si nanoparticles to α-MoO3;
- mixing the Si decorated α-MoO3 with a carbon binder;
- and
- electrochemically lithiating α-MoO3.
2 more elements
A method of fabricating a full cell having an α-MoO3 anode, comprising:
- at least partially enclosing an α-MoO3 anode with a first separator material;
- at least partially enclosing a cathode with a second separator material;
- placing a lithium metal foil between the α-MoO3 anode and the cathode;
- and
- electrochemically lithiating α-MoO3.
