Porous SnO 2/layered titanate nanohybrid with enhanced electrochemical performance for reversible lithium storage

Abstract

A porous hybrid of titanate nanosheets with SnO 2 nanoparticles has been realized by an exfoliation and reassembling route. The present nanohybrid shows a large reversible capacity of 860 mA h g -1 with a good capacity retention (about 60% retention of the initial capacity after 50 cycles).
