Abstract

In this work, tiny CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles with a diameter of several nanometers were firmly grown on carbon nanotube (CNT) through a solvothermal process followed with calcination step. The composite shows a coralline structure, where CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles are dispersed finely on the surface of CNT. The coralline CoFe₂O₄–CNT composite electrode can deliver initial discharge/charge capacities of 1183.6/876.1 mAh g⁻¹ at 100 mA g⁻¹, with a Coulombic efficiency reaching up to 74.0%. The capacity drops first but ascends latter when the electrode is cycled 220 times at 200 mA g⁻¹, giving a value of 747.5 mAh g⁻¹ at 220th discharge process. Besides, the composite displays a capacity of 620.8 mAh g⁻¹ even at a high rate of 1600 mA g⁻¹, larger than commercialized graphite (372 mAh g⁻¹). Thus, coralline CoFe₂O₄–CNT composite of remarkable electrochemical properties makes it a promising anode for lithium ion batteries.
