| Abstract | Abstract TiO 2 -graphene nanocomposite was first synthesized by a facile gas/liquid interface reaction. The structure and morphology were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller measurements. The results indicate that TiO 2 nanoparticles (ca. 10 nm in mean grain size) were successfully deposited onto the graphene sheets during the gas/liquid interfacial reaction process. The electrochemical performance was evaluated by using coin-type cells versus metallic lithium in an enlarged potential window of 0.01–3.0 V. A high specific charge capacity of 499 mAh g −1 was obtained at a current density of 100 mA g −1 . More strikingly, the TiO 2 -graphene nanocomposite exhibits excellent rate capability, even at a high current density of 3000 mA g −1 , the specific charge capacity was still as high as 150 mAh g −1 . The high specific charge capacities can be attributed to the facts that graphene possesses high electronic conductivity, and the lithium storage performance of graphene is delivered during discharge/charge processes of TiO 2 -graphene nanocomposite between 0.01 and 3.0 V. |
