Li2CuSnO4 and Li2CuSnSiO6 were prepared from their precursors compounds using Brij surfactant and a hydrothermal autoclave method. X-ray diffraction characterization revealed that the crystal structures of these compounds were tetragonal. Scanning electron microscope investigation showed the particle size morphology of Li2CuSnSiO6 is larger than that of Li2CuSnO4. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) explained that Li2CuSnO4 cell had higher charge transfer resistance (Rct = 2936Ω) than that of Li2CuSnSiO6 (38Ω). Furthermore, the reversible specific discharge capacity of the Li2CuSnSiO6 …

Lithium copper tin silicon oxide was prepared from their precursor compounds using Brij surfactant and different sources of Si such as SiO2, SiC, and Si3N4. A hydrothermal autoclave method was used in the first stage of the preparation. X-ray diffraction characterization revealed that the crystal structures of these compounds were tetragonal. Scanning electron microscope investigation showed that the particle size morphology of Li2CuSnSiO6 is larger than that of Li2CuSnO4. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy explained that the cell prepared from the Li2CuSnSiO6 electrode using Si3 …
