In this paper, we synthesized Bi 2 Se 3 -NFs@rGO composite and analyzed electro chemical properties. Bi 2 Se 3 -NFs@rGO composite improved specific capacity, cycle stability and ion conductivity by rGO composite. [Display omitted] • The synthesis of Bi 2 Se 3 nanoflakes(NFs) by organic molecules as selenium precursor. • Synthesized homogenously nanoflakes by oleylamine as surfactant. • Bi2Se3-NFs@rGO composite exhibits high specific capacity compared to previous articles. • Analyzed the mechanism of Bi 2 Se 3 -NFs@rGO composite via Ex-situ TEM and Ex-situ XRD. Metal selenides have gained attention as alternative anode materials for lithium-ion batteries, with increasing demand for electro-vehicles and appliances. Bismuth selenide has significant potential as anode materials in lithium-ion batteries. Nevertheless, metal selenides have essential drawbacks, such as volume expansion and poor cycle performance. In this paper, bismuth selenide synthesized homogeneous morphology-like nanoflakes (NFs) using the wet chemical method. We combined these nanoflakes with reduced graphene oxide to improve their structural stability. The Bi 2 Se 3 -NFs@rGO composite showed enhanced specific capacity from 750 mAhg−1 to 1100 mAhg−1 at 100 mAg−1. Furthermore, at a current density of 500 mAg−1, it reached a specific capacity (819 mAhg−1) after 300 cycles and demonstrated a coulombic efficiency of 96 %. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
