To enhance the performance of lithium-ion batteries, zinc oxide (ZnO) has generated interest as an anode candidate owing to its high theoretical capacity. However, because of its limitations such as its slow chemical reaction kinetics, intense capacity fading on potential cycling, and low rate capability, composite anodes of ZnO and other materials are manufactured. In this study, we introduce binary and ternary composites of ZnO with other metal oxides (MOs) and carbon-based materials. Most ZnO-based composite anodes exhibit a higher specific capacity, rate performance, and cycling stability than a single ZnO anode. The synergistic effects between ZnO and the other MOs or carbon-based materials can explain the superior electrochemical characteristics of these ZnO-based composites. ... |
In this study, we have investigated the influence of crystallinity, phase ratio, and heterojunction formation on the sensing performance of ZnO/ZnFe2O4 (ZnO/ZFO) nanocomposite-based electrochemical sensors for the detection of furazolidone (FZD) antibiotic drug. Results obtained show that the crystallinity and phase ratio of ZnO/ZFO nanocomposites have decisive effects on their electron transfer and active site density. Tuning the crystallinity and ZnO content of ZnO/ZFO nanocomposites is an effective way to enhance the FZD electrochemical sensing performance. Findings from this research suggested that the formation of ZnO/ZFO heterojunction could significantly improve their electrochemical responses for FZD due to arising of the internal electric field and redistribution of Zn2+, F... |
