Abstract
Micro/meso-porous reduced graphite oxide (MMRGO) nanosheets were produced using precursor carbide-derived carbon (CDC), which was produced at a high temperature of 1200°C, through a massive wet chemistry synthetic route involving graphite oxidation and microwave reduction. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) show that the MMRGO nanosheets were fabricated with 2-3 layers and ripple-like corrugations. N2 sorption isotherms confirmed that micro/meso-pores coexisted in the RGO sample from CDC. In the anode application of Li-ion batteries, this RGO sample had an enhanced capacity performance at the 0.1 C rate and 1 C rate, with ∼1200 mAh g-1 at the 100th cycle and ∼1000 mAh g-1 at the 200th cycle, respectively.
