Although it is well-known that TiO2 incorporation can greatly improve the cyclic stability of V2O5, the influences of TiO2 addition on the Li+ intercalation properties of V2O5 remain an issue of debate in literature. In this paper, we report on a systematic investigation of the preparation and intercalation properties of V2O5-TiO2 mixture films. The present work demonstrates that high Li+ intercalation rates and capacity in V2O5 films are achievable with TiO2 addition. For example, the addition of 20 mol % Ti into V2O5 polycrystalline demonstrated an approximated 100% improvement in Li+ intercalation performance as compared to single V2O5 electrodes. Such enhancement in intercalation properties of V2O5 films with TiO2 addition was attributed to changes in microstructure, crystallinity, and also a possible lattice structure and interaction force between adjacent layers in V2O5.
