Mo-doped LiV₃O₈ nanorod-assembled nanosheets as a high performance cathode material for lithium ion batteries

Abstract

A new Mo-doped LiV₃O₈ nanorod-assembled nanosheet was prepared by a simple hydrothermal method and subsequent calcination. Its unique structure demonstrates a maximum discharge capacity of 269 mAh g⁻¹ at 300 mA g⁻¹ within 4.0-2.0 V, and excellent rate and cycle performance for Li-ion batteries.
