Hierarchical Vine‐Tree‐Like Carbon Nanotube Architectures: In‐Situ CVD Self‐Assembly and Their Use as Robust Scaffolds for Lithium‐Sulfur Batteries

Hierarchical vine-tree-like carbon nanotube architectures composed of vine-like single-walled carbon nanotubes wrapping around the tree-like multi-walled carbon nanotubes are fabricated through in-situ chemical vapor deposition self-assembly. The vine-tree-like nanoarchitectures exhibit excellent cycling stability and rate performance when employed as the cathode scaffolds for lithium-sulfur batteries.
