Abstract

In this work, we report an interesting synthesis of unusual rutile TiO ₂ nanosheets with exposed high-energy (001) facets, which form hierarchical microspheres that closely resemble the natural "desert rose". These high-energy (001) surfaces are stabilized by amorphous molybdenum trioxide (MoO₃), which is homogeneously dispersed on the TiO₂ nanosheets. The as-prepared unique TiO₂-MoO ₃ hybrid structure exhibits improved lithium storage capabilities. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.
