Abstract

Abstract : A double-layered Ge coated carbon cloth composite as integrated electrode shows promising application in flexible lithium ion batteries. Abstract : A double-layered Ge coated carbon cloth composite was synthesized by electrodepositing Ge from an ionic liquid using carbon cloth as substrate. As an integrated electrode, the composite exhibits a high initial charge capacity of 1169 mA h g −1 and retains 989 mA h g −1 after 100 cycles at 300 mA g −1 .
