title: Vapor-phase fabrication of β-iron oxide nanopyramids for lithium-ion battery anodes.
abstract: The other polymorph: A vapor-phase route for the fabrication of β-Fe(2)O(3) nanomaterials on Ti substrates at 400-500 °C is reported. For the first time, the β polymorph is tested as anode for lithium batteries, exhibiting promising performances in terms of Li storage and rate capability.
