The reasonable design of nanostructure is the key to solving the inherent defects and realizing a high performance of Li2FeSiO4 cathode materials. In this work, a novel heterostructure CNT@Li2FeSiO4@C has been designed and synthesized and used as a cathode material for lithium-ion battery. It is revealed that the product has a uniform core-shell structure, and the thickness of the Li2FeSiO4 layer and the outer carbon layer is about 19 nm and 2 nm, respectively. The rational design effectively accelerates the diffusion of lithium ions, improves the electric conductivity, and relieves the volume change during the charging/discharging process. With the advantages of its specific structure, CNT@Li2FeSiO4@C has successfully overcome the inherent shortcomings of Li2FeSiO4 and shown good reversible capacity and cycle properties.
