Abstract

Abstract : ε-Ti2 N synthesized by an N2 plasma-assisted process is first applied to lithium-ion batteries with good performance. Abstract : Non-layered ε-Ti2 N with a work function of ∼4.75 eV, synthesized by a rapid process assisted by N2 plasma immersion, is successfully applied as the anode material of lithium-ion batteries with good performance; it exhibits discharge capacity of ∼450 mA h g −1, which is close to the theoretical value, coulombic efficiencies of >85%, and capacity retentions (≥80%).
