Abstract

A novel three-dimensional porous Si-MWNT heterostructure was designed to meet the demand of high-capacity and long-life lithium storage. This material presented a stable capacity above 1000 mAh g-1 for nearly 200 cycles, which benefited from its highly porous structure combined with robust MWNT connections that accommodated the host volume change and improved the electric conductivity. 2011 the Owner Societies.
