Reinforced Capacity and Cycling Stability of CoTe Nanoparticles Anchored on Ti₃C₂ MXene for Anode Material.

ABSTRACT: Developing high-performance anode materials is critical for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) to meet consumers' demands. Cobalt tellurides (CoTe) exhibit promising electrochemical properties due to their higher theoretical capacity compared to commonly used graphite anodes. However, their practical application is hindered by poor electrical conductivity, agglomeration of nanoparticles, and significant volume changes during charge-discharge cycling. To overcome these challenges, CoTe nanoparticles are synthesized and anchored on Ti₃C₂ MXene (CoTe@Ti₃C₂) via a facile hydrothermal approach. The integration of CoTe nanoparticles with Ti₃C₂ nanosheets leverages their synergistic advantages: Ti₃C₂ MXene serves as
