Abstract: | Lithium ion battery is the predominant power source for portable electronic devices, electrical vehicles, and back‐up electricity storage units for clean and renewable energies. High‐capacity and long‐life electrode materials are essential for the next‐generation Li‐ion battery with high energy density. Here bimetal‐organic‐frameworks synthesis of Co0.4Zn0.19S@N and S codoped carbon dodecahedron is shown with rooted carbon nanotubes (Co‐Zn‐S@N‐S‐C‐CNT) for high‐performance Li‐ion battery application. Benefiting from the synergetic effect of two metal sulfide species for Li‐storage at different voltages, mesoporous dodecahedron structure, N and S codoped carbon overlayer and deep‐rooted CNTs network, the product exhibits a larger‐than‐theoretical reversible Li‐storage capacity of 941 mAh g?1 after 250 cycles at 100 mA g?1 and excellent high‐rate capability (734, 591, 505 mAh g?1 after 500 cycles at large current densities of 1, 2, and 5 A g?1 , respectively). |
