3D nanoporous Au‐supported nanocrystalline tin thin‐film anodes for Li‐ion batteries are prepared by dealloying followed by electroless plating. When used as an electrode for Li‐ion batteries, this special Sn structure can effectively accommodate large volume variations during cycling in a lithium cell, resulting in improved capacity retention.
