Abstract Silicon nanoribbons (Si-NRs) were successfully synthesized by direct-current (DC) arc-discharge plasma in a mixed atmosphere of hydrogen and helium, and then characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), etc.. This work provides a low cost preparation method for the synthesis of Si-NRs, and it could be commercially produced with a production rate of 18.6 gh-1. The Si NRs consist of fine sheets of ca 28 nm in width, over 200 nm in length and ca 6.2 nm in thickness with specific surface area of 164 m2g-1. The measured electrochemical performance of the Si-NRs as anode of lithium ion batteries reveals that the first discharge specific capacity is 2460 mAhg-1 and it reaches to 316 mAhg-1 after 40 cycles, which exhibits a high activity of insertion/desertion of Li+ ions and possible potentials for further improvement of the cycle stability.
