title: Assembly of carbon-SnO2 core-sheath composite nanofibers for superior lithium storage.
abstract: Protective coating: Carbon-SnO(2) core-sheath composite nanofibers are synthesized through the creative combination of electrospinning and electrodeposition processes (see figure). They display excellent electrochemical performance when directly used as binder-free anodes for rechargeable lithium ion batteries.
