Abstract: | This paper reports on the synthesis, characterization and electrochemical performance of LiV3O8 nanorods which were prepared through a very facile hydrothermal route. The diameters of the LiV3O8 nanorods are about 150 nm. The morphology of LiV3O8 can be controlled by adjusting the reaction conditions such as the reaction time and temperature. Electrochemical measurements reveal that the as‐prepared LiV3O8 nanorods display high initial discharge capacities (292.5 mA·hg?1) and excellent cyclability. This result indicates that the nanorods are a promising cathode candidate material for lithium batteries. |
