This material may be a simple way to the water-phase synthesis of a large number of synthesis between 40-60nm in diameter, length up to several microns. Polycrystalline TiO2-B nano-tube is an excellent lithium insertion vector, inserted lithium potentials in 1.5-1.6V, the formation of Li0.91TiO2-B (305mAh / g), with excellent reversible cycle of capacity (capacity after 100 cycles of several No reductions). It is interesting that it is superior to the same kinds of specific capacity relative to the diameter of nanowires with diameters similar to that of nano-particles.

2003 Green, M et al [7] found that the surface of magnetic nano-column electrode due to changes in the particle size limits, the deformation behavior and to reduce the fracture generation, also showed excellent reversible capacity (after 50 cycles most of the columnar structure is still intact ).
One study found that carbon nanotubes can exceed the charge-discharge capacity of lithium intercalation compounds of graphite theoretical capacity more than doubled. ZH Yang [8] found that chemical vapor deposition method of carbon nanotubes with a capacity of 700mAh / g, Frackowia [9] with the Co / silica gel as a catalyst at 900 ℃ under the catalytic decomposition of acetylene gas to be the first embedded carbon nanotubes Lithium capacity of 952mAh / g. But also found that compared with other carbon materials, carbon nanotubes as a cathode material is not only there is potential lag, and there is a clear double-layer effect.

Particle size reduction in broadening the people's choice of electrode material
A breakthrough in nanoscale research may quickly change the way people of inorganic materials, chemical / electrochemical reaction of the original understanding of, the original thought that does not meet the standards of traditional lithium-intercalation materials have been rejected but now is worth rethinking. This is from the 2003 Larcher, D, etc.'s report on the macro-& nano-hematite particles and the reaction of lithium live * comparison experiment [10]. Nano-hematite particles (diameter 20nm) in the process of reversible lithium insertion capacity of 0.6Li per Fe2O3, and no phase change occurred; large granular hematite (diameter of 1-2um) when the lithium insertion capacity of 0.03 Li per Fe2O3 pm irreversible phase transition can occur.
