Although MnO has been demonstrated to be a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in terms of its high theoretical capacity (755 mA h g(-1)), comparatively low voltage hysteresis (<0.8 V), low cost, and environmental benignity, the application of MnO as a practical electrode material is still hindered by many obstacles, including poor cycling stability and huge volume expansion during the charge/discharge process. Herein, we report a facile and scalable metal-organic framework-derived route for the in situ fabrication of ultrafine MnO nanocrystals encapsulated in a porous carbon matrix, where nanopores increase active sites to store redox ions and enhance ionic diffusivity to encapsulated MnO nanocrystals. As an anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), these MnO@C composites exhibited a high reversible specific capacity of 1221 mA h g(-1) after 100 cycles at a current density of 100 mA g(-1). The excellent electrochemical performance can be attributed to their unique structure with MnO nanocrystals dispersed uniformly inside a porous carbon matrix, which can largely enhance the electrical conductivity and effectively avoid the aggregation of MnO nanocrystals, and relieve the strain caused by the volumetric change during the charge/discharge process. This facile and economical strategy will extend the scope of metal-organic framework-derived synthesis for other materials in energy storage applications.
