Red-phosphorus-impregnated carbon nanofibers for sodium-ion batteries and liquefaction of red phosphorus
Abstract
Red phosphorus is a promising anode for Na-ion batteries but suffers from large volume change upon cycling. Here the authors show a red-phosphorus-impregnated carbon nanofiber design in which the sodiated red phosphorus is featured by a “liquid-like” behavior and ultra-stable electrochemical performance is realized.
