Silicon anodes with an extremely high theoretical specific capacity of 4,200 mAh g<sup>-1</sup> have been considered as one of the most promising anode materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries. However, the large volume expansion during lithiation hinders its practical application. In this work, pomegranate-like Si@SiO<sub>x</sub> composites were prepared using a simple spray drying process, during which silicon nanoparticles reacted with oxygen and generated SiO<sub>x</sub> on the su ...[more]
