A new SnO_2-Fe_2O_3/SWCNTs(single-walled carbon nanotubes) ternary nanocomposite was first synthesized by a facile hydrothermal approach.SnO_2 and Fe_2O_3 nanoparticles(NPs) were homogeneously located on the surface of SWCNTs,as confirmed by X-ray diffraction(XRD),transmission electron microscope(TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX).Due to the synergistic effect of different components,the as synthesized SnO_2-Fe_2O_3/SWCNTs composite as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries exhibited excellent electrochemical performance with a high capacity of 692 mAh·g^(-1) which could be maintained after 50 cycles at 200 mA·g^(-1).Even at a high rate of2000 mA·g^(-1),the capacity was still remained at 656 mAh·g^(-1).
The electronic structures of single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWCNTs)were modulated by filling with tetracyanoquinodimethane(TCNQ),a strong electron acceptor.The structures of TCNQ-filled SWCNTs were checked by X-ray diffraction analysis,high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy.Optical absorption spectroscopy demonstrated an enhanced reactivity between aryl diazonium and semiconducting SWCNTs.
本文选用不同基底和溶剂进行单壁碳纳米管(SWNTs)样品制备,采用原子力显微镜(atomic force microscope,AFM)观察进行表征和观测。结果表明,溶剂和基底对样品制备十分重要,会直接影响AFM观测效果。以去离子水为溶剂进行样品分散时,SWNTs在石英、硅片和云母三种基底上都出现了不同程度的聚积和重叠,影响观测效果。而采用乙醇为溶剂,在石英或云母为基底进行成像时,均可获得质量良好的图像。选择云母作为基底,可以大大减少基底处理时间,制样方便快速,并且能够获得理想的观测效果。
