Abstract
In this work, we first report a synthesis of Zn2GeO4–C–Ag nanorods through a simple dip/redox process followed by a thermal treatment. With the carbon buffer layer accommodated the volume change and the Ag nanoparticles enhanced the overall conductivity, the Zn2GeO4–C–Ag nanorods demonstrated an improved cycle stability with higher capability compared to that of the as-prepared Zn2GeO4 and Zn2GeO4–C nanorods. In addition, this synthetic method might be utilized to synthesize other Ge-based materials combined with carbon as well as metal decoration for energy storage.
