Abstract

We demonstrate a new hydrothermal method to directly grow SnO₂ nanosheets on a graphene oxide support that is subsequently reduced to graphene. This unique SnO₂/graphene hybrid structure exhibits enhanced lithium storage properties with high reversible capacities and good cycling performance.
