Abstract

The electrochemical storage performance of anatase TiO2 nanotubes (NT) is compared to the performance of TiO2 nanotubes covered by sulfur. Charge/discharge curves and cycling performance of TiO2 NT with and without sulfur deposition with respect to lithium anodes are demonstrated in electrochemical test cells. At 0.5C cycle rate the TiO2 NT exhibited a first cycle specific charge/discharge capacity of 180/155 mAh/g, whereas the TiO2 NT deposited with sulfur showed a remarkably higher performance at 0.5C cycle rate with first cycle charge/ discharge specific capacities of 258/260 mAh/g and a coulombic efficiency of 98%.
