Abstract
We have synthesized porous Li2FeSiO4/C nanocomposites by two different routes such as sol-gel (Li2FeSiO4/C-SG) and solvothermal (Li2FeSiO4/C-ST) using block copolymer pluronic (P123) as both in-situ carbon source and structure directing agent. Various techniques, like, powder x-ray diffraction, \BET\ nitrogen adsorption
