Abstract

Amorphous Ge nanoparticles are prepared by capping butyl groups and are characterized using XAS, TEM, FT-IR reflectance and electrochemical cycling. The capping ligand plays an important role in controlling the irreversible capacity as opposed to lithium-storage metals, which showed a large irreversible capacity.
