Synthesis of CuS@CoS2 Double-Shelled Nanoboxes with Enhanced Sodium Storage Properties

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

Metal sulfides have received considerable attention for efficient sodium storage owing to their high capacity and decent redox reversibility. However, the poor rate capability and fast capacity decay greatly hinder their practical application in sodium-ion batteries. Herein, an elegant multi-step templating strategy has been developed to rationally synthesize hierarchical double-shelled nanoboxes with the CoS2 nanosheet-constructed outer shell supported on the CuS inner shell. Their structure and composition enable these hierarchical CuS@CoS2 nanoboxes to show boosted electrochemical properties with high capacity, outstanding rate capability, and long cycle life. © 2019 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
