▎ 摘　　要

Thin films of MoO2 nanoparticles and graphene sheets are created by layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly as binder-free anodes for lithium-ion batteries. Both anionic polyoxometalate clusters and graphene oxide nanosheets with oxygen functional groups on both basal planes and edges are assembled into LBL films with the aid of a cationic polyelectrolyte. After a subsequent thermal treatment in an Ar-H-2 atmosphere, hybrid MoO2-graphene films with three-dimensionally interconnected nanopores are formed, which comprise ultrafine MoO2 nanoparticles homogeneously embedded in the porous network of graphene nanosheets. When used as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, the MoO2-graphene thin-film electrode shows superior electrochemical performance with high specific capacity and excellent cyclability. A high specific capacity of 675.9 mA h g(-1) after 100 discharge-charge cycles is achieved, indicating a promising anode candidate for lithium-storage applications.
