A Mo-doped TiNb₂O₇ anode for lithium-ion batteries with high rate capability due to charge redistribution

Abstract

Mo-doped TiNb2O7 (TNO) anode material has shown excellent electrochemical performance, especially at high C-rates. Doping TNO with Mo(6+) resulted in charge redistribution, leading to the enhancement of electronic conductivity (caused by bandgap narrowing) and Li(+) diffusivity in the lattice.
