摘要：

Octahedral nanoparticles of indium oxide have been synthesized using a "urea glass" method, which is relatively simple, low cost and catalyst-free. Further characterization shows the 40 nm indium oxide nanoparticles are single crystals with a smooth surface and truncated tips. The electrochemical properties of the negative electrode using indium oxide nanoparticles as the active material in lithium-ion batteries were also studied. The nanoparticles show a capacity of 1195.8 mAh g(-1) at the first discharge and 585.3 mAh g(-1) at the second discharge, and the reversible capacity is around 107 mAh g(-1) after 20 cycles.
