Hydrothermal growth of SnS2 hollow spheres and their electrochemical properties

Abstract

SnS2 hollow microspheres and SnS2 3D nanoflake-based hollow microspheres are successfully synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal process. From the experimental results, a mechanism based on bubble-templating, self-assembling and subsequent shell evolution was proposed. These hollow spheres were tested as anode materials in lithium ion batteries (LIBs) and found to have good cycling performance. This article provide a facile strategy to prepare hollow structures and give some insight studies on their applications in lithium ion storage and retrieval.
