Elaborate synthesis of black tin oxide–black titanium oxide core–shell nanotubes for ultrastable and fast lithium storage

Abstract

Herein, we report on the elaborate synthesis of a novel hybrid architecture, i.e., black tin oxide–black titanium oxide core–shell nanotubes (denoted as TiO2−x@SnO2−x nanotubes) by NaBH4 co-reduction. The synergistic interplay between the SnO2−x core and the TiO2−x shell results in superior cyclability and rate capability for ultrastable and fast lithium storage.
