Abstract

Honeycomb-like MoS2 nanoarchitectures anchored into 3D graphene foam are successfully fabricated as a high-performance positive electrode for enhanced Li-ion storage. The unique 3D interpenetrating honeycomb-like structure is the key to the high performance. High reversible capacity, superior high-rate capability, and excellent cycling stability are demonstrated.

Keywords: graphene; honeycomb; lithium-ion batteries; molybdenum sulfide; self-assembly.
