ABSTRACT
Tailoring the omnidirectional conductivity networks in nickel oxide-based electrodes is important for ensuring their long lifespan, stability, high capacity, and high-rate capability. In this study, nickel metal nanoparticles and a three-dimensional nitrogen-doped carbon matrix were used to embellish the nickel oxide composite NiO-Ni/N-C via simplified hard templating. When a porous nitrogen-doped carbon matrix is present, a rapid pathway would be established for charging and discharging the electrons and lithium ions in a lithium-ion battery, thereby alleviating the volumetric expansion of the NiO nanoparticles during the operation of the battery. Moreover, the Ni0 ions added to serve as active sites to improve the capacity of the NiO-based electrodes and strengthen their conductivities. The multielement-effects of the optimal NiO-Ni/N-C electrode leads it to exhibit a capacity of 1310.8 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 for 120 loops and a rate capability of 441.5 mAh g-1 at 20.0 A g-1. Kinetic analysis of the prepared electrodes proved their ultrafast ionic and electronic conductivities. This strategy of hard templating reduces the number of routes required for preparing different types of electrodes, including NiO-based electrodes, and improves their electrochemical performance to enable their use in energy storage applications.
