Investigation of the morphological, optical and electrochemical capabilities of V2O5/MWCNT nanoparticles synthesized using a microwave autoclave technique

Metal oxide composites containing nanostructured carbons have been extensively researched to overcome difficulties such as low intrinsic electronic conductivity, significant irreversible capacity loss, and poor coulombic efficiency in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). A time-efficient microwave autoclav...

Investigation of the morphological, optical and electrochemical capabilities of V2O5/MWCNT nanoparticles synthesized using a microwave autoclave technique
description Metal oxide composites containing nanostructured carbons have been extensively researched to overcome difficulties such as low intrinsic electronic conductivity, significant irreversible capacity loss, and poor coulombic efficiency in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). A time-efficient microwave autoclave synthesis technique was approached to fuse V2O5 to MWCNT strands. V2O5/MWCNT is a hybrid nanoparticle with crucial features for the electrode needed for a supercapacitor that has been investigated and reported. Due to X-ray diffraction (XRD) peak investigation, the nanoparticles' phase structure, space group, and strain(ε) have been determined. The particle size was calculated in Debye-Scherrer, modified Scherrer, and uniform deformation modeling (UDM) modes. The interaction between light photons and electrons is thoroughly addressed using UV–Vis technology.

Nanoparticles' dielectric function (εrand εi), and direct bandgap have also been reported.
