Abstract

MoO₂/Mo₂C/C spheres have been synthesized through hydrothermal and calcination processes. MoO₂ is well known for its high theoretical capacity of 838 mAh g^-1, but undergoes capacity fading during Li⁺ insertion/extraction processes. Mo₂C has high specific conductance (1.02 × 10² S cm^-1) that can provide better electronic conductivity. Carbon is popular for its ability to accommodate the volume variation during charge/discharge. By taking advantage of the combination of Mo₂C and C, these MoO₂/Mo₂C/C spheres demonstrate not only high cycling performance, but also good rate capability when they are used as anode materials for lithium ion batteries. After 100 cycles at 100 mA g^-1, the discharge capacities of the MoO₂/Mo₂C/C spheres remain at 800 mAh g^-1, suggesting that MoO₂/Mo₂C/C spheres are promising candidates as anode material for lithium ion batteries. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
