| Abstract | We report the preparation of porous CuO nanowires that are composed of nanoparticles (∼50 nm) via a simple decomposition of a Cu(OH)$_{2}$ precursor and their application as the anode materials of rechargeable Na-ion batteries. The as-prepared porous CuO nanowires exhibit a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of 13.05 m$^{2}$·g$^{−1}$, which is six times larger than that of bulk CuO (2.16 m$^{2}$·g$^{−1}$). The anode of porous CuO nanowires showed discharge capacities of 640 mA·h·g$^{−1}$ in the first cycle and 303 mA·h·g$^{−1}$ after 50 cycles at 50 mA·g$^{−1}$. The high capacity is attributed to porous nanostructure which facilitates fast Na-intercalation kinetics. The mechanism of electrochemical Na-storage based on conversion reactions has been studied through cyclic voltammetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). It is demonstrated that in the discharge process, Na$^{+}$ ions first insert into CuO to form a Cu 1−x II Cu x I O$_{1−x/2}$ solid and a Na$_{2}$O matrix then Cu 1−x II Cu x I O$_{1−x/2}$ reacts with Na$^{+}$ to produce Cu$_{2}$O, and finally Cu$_{2}$O decompose into Cu nanoparticles enclosed in a Na$_{2}$O matrix. During the charge process, Cu nanoparticles are first oxidized to generate Cu$_{2}$O and then converted back to CuO. This result contributes to the design and mechanistic analysis of high-performance anodes for rechargeable Na-ion batteries. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
