Abstract
Here we demonstrate the rational design and synthesis of three-layered TiO2 @carbon@MoS2 hierarchical nanotubes for anode applications in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Through an efficient step-by-step strategy, ultrathin MoS2 nanosheets are grown on nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) coated TiO2 nanotubes to achieve the TiO2 @NC@MoS2 tubular nanostructures. This smart design can effectively shorten the diffusion length of Li+ ions, increase electric conductivity of the electrode, relax volume variation of electrode materials upon cycling, and provide more active sites for electrochemical reactions. Owing to these structural and compositional features, the hierarchical TiO2 @NC@MoS2 nanotubes manifest remarkable lithium storage performance with good rate capability and long cycle life.

Three-Dimensional Network Architecture with Hybrid Nanocarbon Composites Supporting Few-Layer MoS2 for Lithium and Sodium Storage.

TL;DR: 3D porous structures, in which the few-layer MoS2 nanosheets with expanded interlayers can provide shortened ion diffusion paths and improved Li+/Na+ diffusion mobility, and the hollow porous carbon spheres and the outside graphene network are able to improve the conductivity and maintain the structural integrity are attributed to the excellent electrochemical performance.

Kinetically limited de-lithiation behavior of nanoscale tin-covered tin oxide nanowires

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported that Sn-nanocluster-covered SnO2 nanowire electrodes exhibited stage-wise de-lithiation suggesting complete lithium extraction, which can be attributed to shorter lithium ion diffusion lengths and high surface area of the nanomaterials.
