A facile one-step approach is developed to prepare novel carbon/tin composites with hollow tin nanoparticles coated by amorphous carbon (see picture) through the solid-state pyrolysis of allyltriphenyltin. The composite exhibited highly reversible Li storage behavior and improved rate performance as an anode material in a Li secondary battery.
