ZnO Nanocrystals as Anode Electrodes for Lithium-Ion Batteries

ZnO Nanocrystals as Anode Electrodes for Lithium-Ion Batteries

ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized via a thermal decomposition method. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence were used to investigate the composition and nanostructure of the material. Compared with commercial ZnO nanoparticles, ZnO nanocrystals showed higher lith...
