title: Hydrothermal carbon spheres containing silicon nanoparticles: synthesis and lithium storage performance.
abstract: Spherically shaped carbon/silicon nanocomposites have been obtained in a one-step procedure using hydrothermal carbonization of glucose in the presence of commercially available silicon nanoparticles and have been tested electrochemically as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries.
