Abstract

Abstract : Heterogeneous inorganic nanotube structures consisting of multiwalled carbon nanotubes coated by long, continuous MoS2 sheets with tunable sheet number are synthesized using a carbon‐nanotube sponge as a template. The resulting 3D porous hybrid sponges have potential applications as high‐performance freestanding anodes for Li‐ion batteries with excellent specific capacity and cycling stability.
