Flexible free-standing Fe-CoP-NAs/CC nanoarrays for high-performance full lithium-ion batteries

In this study, a flexible, free-standing Fe -doped CoP nanoarrays electrode for superior lithium -ion storage has been successfully fabricated. The electrode combines the advantages of a Fe -doping and a flexible carbon cloth (CC) support, resulting in a high specific capacity (1356 mAh/g at 0.2 A/g) and excellent cycling stability (1138 mAh/g after 100 cycles). The cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves at different scan rates investigate the outstanding lithium storage behavior of Fe-CoP-NAs/CC which indicates a combined influence of diffusion behavior and capacitance behavior on the electrochemical process. The galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) analyzes the diffusion kinetics of Li + which indicates the fast diffusion kinetics in the Fe-CoP/NAs/CC anode. The assembled Fe-CoP-NAs/CC//LiFePO 4 battery exhibits a remarkable capacity of 325.2 mAh/g even at 5 A/g. And the battery also has good cycle stability, and still provides 498.1 mAh/g specific capacity after 200 cycles. Moreover, the Fe-CoP-NAs/CC//LiFePO 4 soft -pack battery can continuously power the LEDs when it is bent at various angles which demonstrates its potential for use in wearable devices.
