Better electrode architecture : spherical assemblies of electrochemically active nanocrystals threaded with carbon nanotubes are made using a simple solvation‐induced‐assembly process. This architecture provides the composites with mechanical robustness, effective ion‐ and electron‐transport pathways, enabling the fabrication of electrodes with high rate, high capacity, and long cycling stability.
