▎ 摘　　要

Here, we proposed a new strategy to build the integrated graphene cube (Gr) framework@TiO2 composite to improve the ion transport kinetics and electrical conductivity of TiO2 as a long-life and high-capacity anode for lithium ion batteries. Combined with the salt template method for ultra-thin framework, the distinct structure of Gr@TiO2 shows an excellent electrochemical performance, e.g., initial coulombic efficiency (ICE), rate performance and specific capacity, due to the increased kinetics of lithium ions. Through this method, the integrity is dramatically improved and the pulverization and agglomeration of the anode after long-term cycles are restrained. The optimized Gr@TiO2 displays a high stable reversible capacity of 179.5 mAh g(-1) after 4000 cycles at 1 A g(-1), excellent rate performance (125.5 mAh g(-1) at 5 A g(-1)). Kinetic studies through Electrochemical Impedance Spectra, Galvanostatic Intermittent Titration Technique and Linear Sweep Voltammetry confirm that the electrical conductivity and ion transport kinetics are dramatically improved through the ultra-thin graphene cube framework as a heterojunction structure of Gr@TiO2.
