    摘要: An improved nanocomposite cathode material for lithium-ion batteries comprising iron oxyfluoride (FeOF) nanoparticles with a conductive matrix of graphene sheets and a method of making the same. The FeOF/graphene composite may improve the specific capacity, rate capability and cycle life of the cathode. The graphene sheets may provide substrates for the FeOF nanoparticles to prevent delocalization of metallic Fe from the FeOF/graphene composite, allowing conversion back to rutile structures. The graphene sheets may be functionalized, and the FeOF nanoparticles may be coated.
