Preparation of Tin Nano-Spheres Film Anode Based on Copper-Nickel Nano-Pillars for Lithium Ion Batteries

Abstract:

Tin nano-spheres film was synthesized by electrodeposition based on the copper-nickel nano-pillars which were prepared by electrochemical method on the copper foil in an aqueous solution containing Cu (II) and Ni (II) at room temperature. The morphology, structure and composition of the as-prepared copper-nickel nano-pillars and tin nano-spheres were characterized by SEM, XRD, and EDS. The tin nano-spheres film anode features the large surface area, good electronic conductivity, and adhesion with the current collector, leading to the enhanced performance in lithium-ion batteries.
