Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="advs201500027-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Surface amorphization</bold> provides unprecedented opportunities for altering and tuning material properties. Surface‐amorphized TiO₂@graphene synthesized using a designed low temperature‐phase transformation technique exhibits significantly improved rate capability compared to well‐crystallized TiO₂@graphene and bare TiO₂ electrodes. These improvements facilitates lithium‐ion transport in both insertion and extraction processes and enhance electrolyte absorption capability. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj2n0t8gpd" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
