The as-synthesized TiOnanopills owned a large specific surface area of 102 m/g and unique porous structure. Furthermore, the obtained TiOnanopills were applied as anode materials for Na-ion batteries for the first time. The as-synthesized TiOnanopills achieved a high discharge capacity of 196.4 m Ah/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g. A discharge capacity of 115.9 m Ah/g was obtained at a high current density of 0.5 A/g and the capacity retention was remained as high as 90% even after 3000 cycles. The excellent electrochemical performance can be attributed to its unique hierarchical porous feature.展开更多
