Abstract
Abstract With the development of lithium-ion batteries, high capacity and high cycle stability have been the two main goals being pursued. Recent studies have shown that ZrV2O7 does not perform well in energy storage due to its low electrical conductivity and poor cycling stability. Elemental doping has proven to be an effective strategy for improving electrochemical performance. In this paper, we prepared Zr0.1Fe0.9V1.1Mo0.9O7(ZFVMO) and Zr0.1Fe0.9V1.1Mo0.9O7@c (ZFVMO@c) materials using a simple solid-phase sintering method and a fast microwave sintering method. Double ionic heterovalent substitution of Zr4+/V5+ in ZrV2O7 using Fe3+/Mo6+, Fe3+/Mo6+ gives it near-zero thermal expansion characteristics and excellent conductive properties. In electrochemical tests, the first discharge capacities of ZFVMO and ZFVMO@C are 2261 mA h g−1 and 727 mA h g−1, respectively, and the batteries were finally stabilized for 475 and 500 cycles. Compared to ZrV2O7, the electrochemical properties of ZFVMO are greatly improved.
