Epitaxial Growth of Branched α‐Fe2O3/SnO2 Nano‐Heterostructures with Improved Lithium‐Ion Battery Performance
Abstract
We report the synthesis of a novel branched nano‐heterostructure composed of SnO 2 nanowire stem and α‐Fe 2 O 3 nanorod branches by combining a vapour transport deposition and a facile hydrothermal method. The epitaxial relationship between the branch and stem is investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The SnO 2 nanowire is determined to grow along the [101] direction, enclosed by four side surfaces. The results indicate that distinct crystallographic planes of SnO 2 stem can induce different preferential growth directions of secondary nanorod branches, leading to six‐fold symmetry rather than four‐fold symmetry. Moreover, as a proof‐of‐concept demonstration of the function, such α‐Fe 2 O 3/SnO 2 composite material is used as a lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) anode material. Low initial irreversible loss and high reversible capacity are demonstrated, in comparison to both single components. The synergetic effect exerted by SnO 2 and α‐Fe 2 O 3 as well as the unique branched structure are probably responsible for the enhanced performance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
