▎ 摘  要

As important anodes in lithium-ion batteries, graphene is always faced with the aggregation problem that makes most of the active sites lose their function at high current densities, resulting in low Li-ion intercalation capacity and poor rate performance. To address this issue, a layered g-C3N4@reduced graphene oxide composite (g-C3N4@RGO) was prepared via a scalable and easy strategy. The resultant g-C3N4@RGO composite possesses large interlayer distances, rich N-active sites, and a microporous structure, which largely improves Li storage performance. It shows excellent cycle stability (899.3 mA h g(-1) after 350 cycles under 500 mA g(-1)) and remarkable rate performance (595.1 mA h g(-1) after 1000 cycles under 1000 mA g(-1)). Moreover, the g-C3N4@RGO electrode exhibits desired capacity retention and relatively high initial Coulombic efficiency of 58.8%. Impressively, this result is better than that of RGO (29.1%) and most of RGO-based anode materials reported in the literature. Especially, the g-C3N4@RGO-based electrode is enough to power two tandem red-light-emitting diodes and run a digital watch. Interestingly, the electronic watch can work continuously for more than 20 days. This novel strategy shows the great potential of g-C3N4@RGO composites as energy-storage materials.
