Three-Dimensional Crumpled Reduced Graphene Oxide/MoS₂ Nanoflowers: A Stable Anode for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Recently, layered transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have gained great attention for their analogous graphite structure and high theoretical capacity. However, it has suffered from rapid capacity fading. Herein, we present the crumpled reduced graphene oxide (RGO) decorated MoS₂ nanoflowers on carbon fiber cloth. The three-dimensional framework of interconnected crumpled RGO and carbon fibers provides good electronic conductivity and facile strain release during electrochemical reaction, which is in favor of the cycling stability of MoS₂. The crumpled RGO decorated MoS₂ nanoflowers anode exhibits high specific capacity (1225 mAh/g) and excellent cycling performance (680 mAh/g after 250 cycles). Our results demonstrate that the three-dimensional crumpled RGO/MoS₂ nanoflowers anode is one of the attractive anodes for lithium-ion batteries.
