Review of Li₃VO₄ anode materials for energy storage

Abstract

Li₃VO₄ anode has advantages of high energy density, long cycle life, safe working voltage, low cost, and simple synthesis process. It is considered to be a promising intercalation anode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). However, its practical application is limited for poor electronic conductivity and low initial coulombic efficiency (ICE). At present, nanocrystallization, surface coating, material combination and lattice doping are adopted to improve the electrochemical performance, including ICE, rate capability, cycling stability, etc. This review systematically summarizes the progress and challenges of Li₃VO₄ anode for energy storage, and provides some guidance for its future study.

Keywords:

• Li₃VO₄ anode
