Abstract

The vine‐tree‐like nanoarchitectures exhibit excellent cycling stability and rate performance when employed as the cathode scaffolds for lithium‐sulfur batteries. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh2ch3c3s8" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
