Abstract

Uniform and porous ultrathin-carbon-coated pyrite (FeS 2 @C) nanooctahedra have been fabricated via a facile solvothermal method with subsequent carbon-coating-annealing and acid-pickling steps. Benefitting from their high conductivity, short Na + diffusion distance, large surface area, and robust structure stability, the FeS 2 @C electrodes delivered a high specific capacity, excellent rate capability and superiorly stable cycling performance, suggesting a potential application in advanced sodium ion batteries.
