N2 - Nanostructured manganese oxides have been regarded as promising anodes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high specific capacity, environmental friendliness and low cost. However, as conversion-type electrodes, their scalable utilization is hindered by intrinsically low reaction kinetics, large volume variation and high polarization. Herein, a coaxial-cable tubular heterostructure composed of a hollow carbon skeleton, Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles and ultrathin MnO 2 nanosheets from inside out, donated as MnO 2 @Fe 3 O 4 @C, is synthesized via a facile two-step hydrothermal process. The unique design integrates conductive carbon and nanostructured MnO 2 and Fe 3 O 4 into a one-dimensional (1D) hierarchically open architecture, which provides abundant electrode-electrolyte contact areas, favorable heterointerfaces and ultrafast electron/ion pathways. Benefiting from these features, the MnO 2 @Fe 3 O 4 @C anode exhibits a high reversible capacity of 946 mAh g -1 at 200 mA g -1 after 160 cycles, and excellent cyclability with a specific capacity of 845 mAh g -1 at 500 mA g -1 after 600 cycles. This work might provide an insightful guideline for the design of novel electrode materials.
