Development of low-cost electrode materials with long cycle life and high volumetric capacity is important for large-scale applications of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Here, an electrode made from Fe₂O₃ encapsulated with N-doped carbon (Fe₂O₃@N-C) via ZIF-8 coating and carbonization process is reported. A cavity was generated between the Fe₂O₃ and N-C material during the carbonization process that is conducive to alleviating the volume expansion of Fe₂O₃. As a result, the Fe₂O₃@N-C composite exhibits a high specific capacity (1064 mAh/g at 0.1 A/g) and cycle stability (803.6 mAh/g at 1.0 A/g after 1100 cycles) when used as the LIB anode. In addition, the influence of carbonization under air on the LIB performance was investigated by controllably changing the crystal phase of Fe₂O₃ and the thickness of the carbon layer. This work provides a new method for the design and fabrication of yolk-shell composite electrodes for LIBs and other applications.
