Nanoscale Si coating on the pore walls of SnO(2) nanotube anode for Li rechargeable batteries.
A nanoscale coating of a Si layer on the pore walls of SnO(2) nanotubes (Si-coated SnO(2)) leads to very good electrochemical performance in coulombic efficiency, rate capability and capacity retention compared with untreated SnO(2) nanotubes.
