HOMOLOGOUS HETEROSTRUCTURE FeSe ELECTRODE MATERIAL WITH HIGH TAP DENSITY AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREOF

Abstract

This invention introduces a homologous heterostructure FeSe electrode material with exceptional tap density and its preparation method, situated within a specific technical domain. The material comprises a unique homo-heterostructure of tetragonal t-FeSe and hexagonal h-FeSe, boasting a tap density of 2.57 cm3g-1. It is synthesized by uniformly mixing iron and selenium powders, followed by heating in a tube furnace. This carbon-free, homologous heterogeneous crystalline FeSe, designed as a sodium-ion battery anode, demonstrates notable structural stability and superior rate performance. The invention enhances charge transfer efficiency through charge redistribution and lattice distortion at the phase boundary, facilitates metal ion transport, and introduces extra active sites for reversible redox reactions. These features significantly boost the material's ion transport kinetics and storage capacity, leading to remarkable long-cycle and high-rate performance.
