Title: Beyond Yolk–Shell Nanoparticles: Fe 3 O 4 @Fe 3 C Core@Shell Nanoparticles as Yolks and Carbon Nanospindles as Shells for Efficient Lithium Ion Storage

Abstract

In order to well address the problems of large volume change and dissolution of Fe3O4 nanomaterials during Li+ intercalation/extraction, herein we demonstrate a one-step in situ nanospace-confined pyrolysis strategy for robust yolk–shell nanospindles with very sufficient internal void space (VSIVS) for high-rate and long-term lithium ion batteries (LIBs), in which an Fe3O4@Fe3C core@shell nanoparticle is well confined in the compartment of a hollow carbon nanospindle. This structure can not only introduce VSIVS to accommodate volume change of Fe3O4 but also afford a dual shell of Fe3C and carbon to restrict Fe3O4 dissolution, thus providing dual roles for greatly improving the capacity retention. Consequently, Fe3O4@Fe3C–C yolk–shell nanospindles deliver a high reversible capacity of 1128.3 mAh g–1 at even 500 mA g–1, excellent high rate capacity (604.8 mAh g–1 at 2000 mA g1), and prolonged cycling life (maintaining 1120.2 mAh g–1 at 500 mA g–1 for 100 cycles) for LIBs, which are much better than those of Fe3O4@C core@shell nanospindles and Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The present Fe3O4@Fe3C–C yolk–shell nanospindles are the most efficient Fe3O4-based anode materials ever reported for LIBs.
