High-performance nanohybrid anode based on FeS2 nanocubes and nitrogen-rich graphene oxide nanoribbons for sodium ion batteries

Sodium ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted considerable attention as an alternative to Li ion batteries (LIBs) because of the sustainable sodium resources and similar chemistry to LIBs. On the other hand, the larger and heavier sodium results in unfavorable sodium ion storage capacity. In this study, an inexpensive precursor-based conversion material, FeS2, was synthesized as a nanostructured pyrite crystal
