Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201303317-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Better electrode architecture</bold>: spherical assemblies of electrochemically active nanocrystals threaded with carbon nanotubes are made using a simple solvation‐induced‐assembly process. This architecture provides the composites with mechanical robustness, effective ion‐ and electron‐transport pathways, enabling the fabrication of electrodes with high rate, high capacity, and long cycling stability. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg4053dkpd" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
