Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj412gxf7" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />Silicon oxycarbide (SiCO) shows a three times larger lithium capacity than does graphite. This work provides an insight into the lithiation mechanism of SiCO as anode material for Li-ion batteries.</p> </abstract>
