▎ 摘　　要

Nitrogen-doped holey graphene hollow microspheres (NHGHSs), synthesized through a template sacrificing method, were utilized as an anode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). Because of their specific microspherical hollow structure comprising nitrogen-doped holey graphene (NHG), the NHGHSs can exhibit reversible capacities of similar to 1563 mAh g-(1) at a low rate of 0.5 C and similar to 254 mAh g(-1) at a high rate of 20 C, which are significantly higher than the discharge capacity of the pristine graphene and other graphene-based carbonaceous materials. These, along with their good cycling stability, clearly demonstrate the great potential of using the NHGHSs as the anode material for LIBs of both high energy and power densities. We believe that the high specific surface area, holey structure of nitrogen-doped graphene, specific microspherical hollow structure, and increased interlayer spacing between the NHG nanosheets in their hollow walls are the main origins of their high electrochemical performance.
