Abstract

A novel surface phosphate strategy was adopted to dramatically improve the charge transport, ion diffusion, electroactive sites, and cycle stability of mesoporous NiCoO nanowire arrays (NWAs), drastically boosting their electrochemical properties. Consequently, the as-prepared phosphated NiCoO NWA (P-NiCoO NWA) electrode achieved excellent energy storage performance as a bifunctional anode material for both lithium ion batteries (LIBs) and sodium ion batteries (SIBs). When evaluated as an anode for LIBs, this P-NiCoO NWA electrode showed a high reversible capacity up to 1156 mA h g for 1500 cycles at 200 mA g without appreciable capacity attenuation, while in SIBs, the electrode could also deliver an admirable initial capacity as high as 687 mA h g and maintained 83.5% of this after 500 cycles at the same current density. Most important, when the current density increased from 100 to 1000 mA g, the capacity retention was about 63% in LIBs and 54% in SIBs. This work may shed light on the engineering of efficient electrodes for multifunctional flexible energy storage device applications.
