Nanocomposite ZnO:MWCNT Thin Films for Li-Ion Batteries Prepared via Reactive Magnetron Sputtering

摘要

In this study, ZnO/MWCNT buckypaper nanocomposite structures were obtained as an anode electrode material for Li-ion batteries. MWCNT based buckypapers were produced via vacuum filtration techniques and the surfaces of the buckypapers were coated with ZnO in order to increase stability and mechanical integrity during charging and discharging processes. The effect of deposition powers on the battery performance is also investigated.
