A new type of nano-sized silicon/carbon composite electrode for reversible lithium insertion.

A new type of nano-sized silicon/carbon composite was developed. It shows superior electrochemical cycling properties as negative electrode material for possible use in lithium-ion batteries with respect to high reversible and low irreversible capacity, and low fading.
