Construction of SnS2/SnO2 heterostructures with enhanced potassium storage performance

摘要

Increasing attention has been focused on potassium ion batteries(KIBs) as promising energy-sto rage system(ESS) owing to the abundance and low-cost of potassium resources.Here,SnS2/SnO2 hete rostructures were successfully fixed onto stainless steel mesh(SnS2/SnO2/SSM) through a facile two-step hydrothermal method and used as anodes for KIBs.Due to the advantages of SnS2/SnO2 heterostructures and good conductivity of SSM substrate,the SnS2/SnO2/SSM anodes display enhanced electrochemical performance.The SnS2/SnO2/SSM anodes deliver specific capacity of 394 mA h g^-1 at 50 mA g^-1 over 100 cycles,better than SnO2/SSM.Even at 500 mA g^-1 after 250 cycles,high capacity of 155 mA h g^-1 can still be obtained.
