A vertically aligned carbon nanofiber (VACNF) array with unique conically stacked graphitic structure directly grown on a planar Cu current collector (denoted as VACNF/Cu) is used as a high-porosity 3D host to overcome the commonly encountered issues of Li metal anodes. The excellent electrical conductivity and highly active lithiophilic graphitic edge sites facilitate homogenous coaxial Li plating/stripping around each VACNF and forming a uniform solid electrolyte interphase. The high specific surface area effectively reduces the local current density and suppresses dendrite growth during the charging/discharging processes. Meanwhile, this open nanoscale vertical 3D structure eliminates the volume changes during Li plating/stripping. As a result, highly reversible Li plating/stripping with high coulombic efficiency is achieved at various current densities. A low voltage hysteresis of 35 mV over 500 h in symmetric cells is achieved at 1 mA cm(-2) with an areal Li plating capacity of 2 mAh cm(-2), which is far superior to the planar Cu current collector. Furthermore, a Li-S battery using a S@PAN cathode and a lithium-plated VACNF/Cu (VACNF/Cu@Li) anode with slightly higher capacity (2 mAh cm(-2)) exhibits an excellent rate capability and high cycling stability with no capacity fading over 600 cycles.
