Silicon anode systems, due to their intrinsic high theoretical specific capacity, show tremendous potential in lithium ion batteries (LIBs). Unfortunately, commercial application still remains elusive due to the cycling-related colossal volume expansion issues following Li alloying and dealloying. Herein, core-shell C@Si@C hollow nanotubes with optimal Si thickness (similar to 60 nm) showing no microstructural damage during lithiation and delithiation processes, have been developed as a stable anode for LIBs with low first-cycle irreversible loss (FIR) of similar to 13% and high areal capacity (similar to 3 mAhcm(-2)) for the first time. The hollow Si nanotubes (h-SiNTs) have been generated via our previously reported high-throughput and recyclable, sacrificial MgO wire template fabrication, approach. Generation of Si films of varying thickness by low-pressure thermal chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) with subsequent etching yields h-SiNTs. Modification/optimization of the h-SiNT physical characteristics exhibit improved performance in LIBs. Carbon coating of optimized h-SiNTs further, yields core-shell h-SiNTs for the first time exhibiting not only low FIR. loss of similar to 13%, with a specific capacity of similar to 1000 mA.h.g(-1) at discharge/charge currents of similar to 1 A.g(-1) for over 120 cycles, but also a low fade rate of similar to 0.072% loss per cycle.
