Abstract

Sodium-ion thin-film micro-batteries form a niche sector of energy storage devices. Sodium titanate, Na2Ti6O13 (NTO) thin films were deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) using solid-state synthesized polycrystalline Na2Ti6O13 compound. The phase-purity and crystallinity of NTO in bulk and thin-film forms were confirmed by Rietveld refinement. Electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy revealed the formation of uniform similar to 100 nm thin film with roughness of similar to 4 nm consisting of homogeneous nanoscale grains. These PLD-deposited NTO thin-films, when tested in Na-half cell architecture, delivered a near theoretical reversible capacity close to 42 mA h g(-1) involving Ti4+/Ti3+ redox activity along with good cycling stability and rate kinetics. Na2Ti6O13 can work as an efficient and safe anode in designing sodium-ion thin-film micro-batteries. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
