Facile synthesis of crumpled nitrogen-doped carbon/molybdenum disulfide hybrid sheets as high-rate anodes for lithium-ion batteries

N-doped 3D porous carbon materials derived from hierarchical porous IRMOF-3 using a citric acid modulator: fabrication and application in lithium ion batteries as anode materials

N-doped three-dimensional carbon nanostructured materials were obtained by calcinating hierarchical porous IRMOF-3 materials, and were fabricated in the presence of citric acid as a modulator via the conventional synthetic protocol, at 900 °C in an Ar atmosphere. The resultant carbon materials were used as anode materials for lithium ion batteries, and exhibited excellent lithium storage capacity and cycling stability and maintained a capacity of about 555 mA h g^-1 at the current density of 0.2 A g^-1 after 100 cycles.
