title: Carbon nanohorns as a high-performance carrier for MnO2 anode in lithium-ion batteries.
abstract: MnO(2) nanoflakes coated on carbon nanohorns (CNHs) has been synthesized via a facile solution method and evaluated as anode for lithium-ion batteries. By using CNHs as buffer carrier, MnO(2)/CNH composite displays an excellent capacity of 565 mA h/g measured at a high current density of 450 mA/g after 60 cylces.
