title: Electrochemical insertion of lithium in mechanochemically synthesized Zn2SnO4.
abstract: We studied the electrochemical insertion of Li in mechanochemically prepared Zn(2)SnO(4). The mechanism of the electrochemical reaction was investigated by using X-ray diffraction, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Changes in the morphology of the Zn(2)SnO(4) particles were studied by in situ scanning electron microscopy. The results were compared with mixtures of SnO(2) + ZnO and with Zn(2)SnO(4) prepared by conventional solid-state synthesis and showed that the mechanochemically prepared Zn(2)SnO(4) exhibits the best cyclic stability of these samples.
