Synthetically Encapsulated \& Self-Organized Transition Metal Oxide Nano Structures inside Carbon Nanotubes as Robust Li-ion Battery Anode Materials

We report a comprehensive study on the electrochemical performance of four different Transition Metal Oxides encapsulated inside carbon nanotubes (CNT). Irrespective of the type of oxide-encapsulate, all these samples exhibit superior cyclic stability as compared to the bare-oxide. Innovative use of camphor during sample synthesis enables precise control over the... Show more
