Abstract

Titanium oxide nanotubes were prepared by hydrothermal treatment of anatase-type TiO_(2) powders and NaOH solution in an autoclave.Transmission Electron Microscopy and X-ray Diffraction showed that the product is anatase-type TiO_(2) nanotubes.The constant charge-discharge current and cyclic voltammetry exhibited the TiO_(2) nanotubes have a large initial lithium insertion capacity of 260 mA·h/g and good reversibility.This study indicates that TiO_(2) nanotubes might be a good negative electrode materical for second lithium battery in the future.
