A novel generalizable strategy is proposed by Y. Yu and co‐workers in article 1500200 for fabrication of a 3D porous interconnected metal sulfide/carbon nanocomposite by the electrostatic spray deposition technique. Such a technique is simple but versatile and can be easily applied to other compounds. The obtained SnS/C composite exhibits a high reversible capacity, high rate capability and long cycling stability for both lithium and sodium storage.
