Nitrogen-doped carbon-encapsulated antimony sulfide nanowires enable high rate capability and cyclic stability for sodium-ion batteries

Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) has been employed for materials of the potential anode in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) because it possesses a high theoretical capacity. However, volume variations coupled with sluggish diffusion kinetics cause rapid capacity degradation and cyclic instability during the sodi...

description Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) has been employed for materials of the potential anode in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) because it possesses a high theoretical capacity. However, volume variations coupled with sluggish diffusion kinetics cause rapid capacity degradation and cyclic instability during the sodiation/desodiation process. Here, we introduce a simple strategy to develop nitrogen-doped carbon-encapsulated antimony sulfide nanowire (Sb2S3@N-C) composites for the anode in SIBs. The resulting composites display excellent electrochemical characteristics with remarkable rate capability, ultrahigh capacity, and excellent stability derived from the synergistic effect between a one-dimensional Sb2S3 nanowire and a nitrogen-doped carbon, thus demonstrating the Sb2S3@N-C composites as a material with potential characteristics for the anode in next-generation storage devices. Electrochemical analysis reveals that pseudocapacitive behavior dominates the overall electrochemical process of the Sb2S3@N-C composites, which is responsible for the fast capacitive charge storage.
