Aluminium substitution in SbS nanorods enhances the stability of the microstructure and high-rate capability in the alloying regime
Alloy anodes, with twice the capacity of graphite, are promising for next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, poor rate-capability and cycling stability, mainly due to pulverization, have limited their application. By constraining the cutoff voltage to the alloying regime (1 V to 10 mV...
