Silicon nanoparticles–graphene paper composites for Li ion battery anodes.

The article presents information on the composites of silicon nanoparticles that are highly dispersed in the graphene sheets aid in the storage capacities and cycling stability of lithium ion batteries. The graphene sheets are supported by a three-dimensional (3-D) network of graphite that is formed by the reconstitution of the regions of graphene stacks. Information on conducting the silicon structure with a carbonaceous layer is also presented.
