Abstract

In this work, amorphous carbon very thin layers coated on a Nb₂O₅ nanosheet flexible composite have been successfully synthesized. The composite delivers a discharge capacity of 396 mA h g⁻¹ after 100 cycles at a current density of 100 mA g⁻¹, which is very much higher than for bare Nb₂O₅ nanosheets.
