“All‐In‐One” integrated ultrathin SnS₂@3D multichannel carbon matrix power high‐areal–capacity lithium battery anode

Abstract Construction of a thickness‐independent electrode with high active material mass loading is crucial for the development of high energy rechargeable lithium battery. Herein, we fabricate an all‐in‐one integrated SnS₂@3D multichannel carbon matrix (SnS2@3DMCM) electrode with in‐situ growth of ultrathin SnS₂ nanosheets inside the inner walls of three dimensional (3D) multichannels. The interconnected conductive carbon matrix derived from natural wood acts as an integrated porous current collector to avail the electrons transport and accommodate massive SnS₂ nanosheets, while plenty of 3D aligned multichannels facilitate fast ions transport with electrode thickness‐independent even under high mass loading. As expected, the integrated SnS₂@3DMCM electrode exhibits remarkable electrochemical lithium storage performance, such as exceptional high‐areal‐capacity of 6.4 mAh cm⁻², high rate capability of 3 mAh cm⁻² under current of 6.8 mA cm⁻² (10 C), and stable cycling performance of 6.8 mA cm⁻² with a high mass loading of 7 mg cm⁻². The 3D integrated porous electrode constructing conveniently with the natural source paves new avenues towards future high‐performance lithium batteries.
