摘要: Germanium-based materials as the anode for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) have been investigated extensively because of their high theoretical capacities. However, ternary germanium-based sulfides as the anode material for LIBs have been rarely investigated until now. In this work, we successfully synthesized a novel ternary Cu2GeS3 (CGS) incorporated with reduced graphene oxide (CGS@RGO) and measured their lithium storage performance. As a result, the binder-free CGS@RGO anodes deliver excellent stable cycling properties and high rate capabilities. These improved properties can be ascribed to the introduction of RGO, which acts as a buffer to accommodate the large volume change and maintain the structural integrity of the electrode. More importantly, this work opens an opportunity to develop novel Ge-based anodes for high performance LIBs.
