摘要：Through electrostatic interaction and high-temperature reduction methods, rGO was closely coated onto the surface of TiO2 nanotubes. Even at a high temperature of 700 °C, the nanotube morphology of TiO2 (anatase) was preserved because of the assistance of rGO, which provides a framework that prevents the tubes from breaking into particles and undergoing a phase transformation. The rGO/TiO2 nanotubes deliver a high capacity (263 mAh g(-1) at the end of 100 cycles at 0.1 A g(-1)), excellent rate performance (151 mAh g(-1) at 2 A g(-1) and 102 mAh g(-1) at 5 A g(-1)), and good cycle stability (206 mAh g(-1) after 500 cycles at 0.5 A g(-1)). These characteristics arise from the GO/TiO2 nanotubes' advanced structure. First, the closely coated rGO and Ti(3+) in the tubes give rise to a high electro-conductivity of the nanotubes. Additionally, the Li(+) ions can rapidly transfer into the electrode via the nanotubes' empty inner diameter and short tube wall.
