Abstract: | Electrochemical properties of Li3SbO4 have been investigated as an anode in lithium-ion coin cells. X-ray powder diffraction of the material, synthesized by the conventional solid state technique with thermal treatment at 800 °C in air, confirmed a monoclinic structure with lattice parameters of a = 5.159 Å, b = 6.048 Å, c = 5.144 Å and β = 109°. Electrochemical measurements in 2032 type coin cells show that Li insertion and extraction in this material take place at 0.72 and 1.05 V vs Li/Li+ respectively. Although the material shows a low average reversible capacity of 81 mAhg−1 at a current density of 0.05 mAcm−2 (C/5), an excellent rate performance with nearly 100% Coulombic efficiency has been observed. Continuous cycling up to 200 cycles at current densities of 0.05, 4.0 and 8.0 mAcm−2 shows that by increasing the current rate from C/5 to 43 C i.e. 215 times, the average reversible capacity decreases only 10%. Thus, the material might be very useful for applications requiring high rate of charge and discharge. |
